Klaim Secures $26M to Revolutionize Healthcare Payments in MENA

Klaim, a pioneer of healthcare payment acceleration solutions, has successfully secured USD 10 million in Series A equity funding and additional USD 16 million financing fund to drive its regional expansion and transform how medical providers access cash flow. This investment will help propel Klaim’s mission to reshape the healthcare financial landscape by speeding up medical insurance claim payments and improving cash flow for healthcare providers in the MENA region.

Since its founding in 2019, Klaim has positioned itself as an innovative and out-of-the-box force in fintech, providing a cutting-edge payment platform specializing in healthcare. Leveraging artificial intelligence and a vast data repository, Klaim predicts insurance payment behaviors through advanced data analytics and AI models. This enables faster and more efficient healthcare claims processing. With the new funds, Klaim aims to expand its footprint in the UAE, deploy capital in Saudi Arabia, Oman, and other regions, and continuously refine its technology to better serve healthcare providers.

Last year, Klaim announced a strategic milestone in its expansion into Saudi Arabia through a collaboration with Tharawat Tuwaiq Financial Company, an asset manager and financial advisor licensed by the Saudi Capital Market Authority (CMA). As part of this collaboration, Tharawat Tuwaiq has successfully obtained approval and launched a healthcare private closed-ended financing fund. The fund, valued at SAR60 million (approximately USD16 million), aims to enhance access to working capital solutions tailored to the healthcare sector’s unique needs.

The first transaction under this initiative is set to take place in March 2025, further strengthening Klaim’s commitment to empowering healthcare providers with innovative solutions. Additional funds within this program are expected to be introduced in the second half of 2025, reinforcing long-term support for Saudi Arabia’s healthcare ecosystem.

We’re excited to achieve this milestone in our journey. Securing Series A funding is not only a major validation of our vision and business model but also the critical inflection point that enables us to scale rapidly.

The healthcare industry often struggles with prolonged payment cycles, creating significant financial strain for providers. With this fresh funding, we are well-positioned to accelerate our efforts in delivering seamless, efficient payment solutions that allow healthcare providers to focus on patient care without financial uncertainty.

– Karim Dakki, Co-Founder and CEO, Klaim

Klaim is now expanding its focus to enterprise healthcare systems, enabling larger providers and hospital networks to access payments within 24 hours. As we scale, our solutions will empower not only small and mid-sized providers but also large healthcare groups that need seamless, reliable financial solutions to support operational growth. This marks a key milestone in our evolution toward serving the entire healthcare ecosystem at scale.
