GEKKO LLC is a joint venture established in 2009 between United Development Company and Commercial Bank of Qatar.
GEKKO provides electronic and smart card based services such as payment cards, as well as security access and other services to residents and visitors of The Pearl-Qatar.
Following implementation of an intelligent infrastructure on the Island in early 2010, GEKKO launched ‘The Pearl-Qatar Lifestyle Card’. This marks the first multi-purpose contactless card in Qatar. The technologically advanced tool can be used by eligible members as a payment card worldwide, while also providing access to a range of non-financial applications unique to The Pearl-Qatar, such as security access and loyalty rewards.
