Websites, apps and growth for UAE businesses

We design and build digital products that work in English and Arabic, then run the ads and hosting behind them.

Our team is in the UK, and we work with businesses in Dubai and across the Emirates remotely. The time difference is small enough that most of the working day overlaps, which makes regular video calls straightforward. Where a kick-off workshop in person would help, travel can be arranged.

Time zones · Dubai
The UAE stays on Gulf Standard Time all year, four hours ahead of London in the UK winter and three hours ahead during British Summer Time. Most of the UK working day falls inside Dubai business hours, though bear in mind the UAE weekend is Saturday and Sunday.
Data protection · UAE PDPL (Federal Decree-Law No. 45 of 2021)
We design to support your compliance with the UAE PDPL (Federal Decree-Law No. 45 of 2021), covering consent, purpose limitation and secure storage. Companies in the DIFC or ADGM free zones fall under their own data protection regimes, so let us know where you are licensed.
02 / Building for United Arab Emirates

What we plan for in this market.

01Arabic and right-to-left layoutsArabic interfaces need genuine right-to-left layouts, mirrored navigation and Arabic-friendly typography, which is far easier to plan in the design phase than to retrofit.
02Checkout habitsUAE shoppers commonly pay by card and Apple Pay, and many stores also offer buy-now-pay-later through providers such as Tabby or Tamara, with cash on delivery still requested for some orders.
03Social-first discoveryInstagram, TikTok and Snapchat play a large part in how people in the UAE find brands, so paid social often sits alongside Google Ads rather than behind it.
03 / Where we help most

Services clients here start with.

Web DevelopmentFast, secure, maintainable web apps and sites — built for you, not assembled from plugins.Product DesignResearch-led UX and interface design that turns a rough idea into something people actually want to use.Meta & TikTok AdsFull-funnel Meta and TikTok campaigns, with the creative made for the platform rather than resized for it.eCommerce ManagementCatalogue, orders, integrations and upkeep handled, so the store keeps earning while you run the business.
04 / Process

No quotes theatre. Four steps.

You get an indicative range before discovery and a fixed scope after it. Nothing about the price should be a surprise.

STEP 01

Discovery

A short, fixed-price discovery to define exactly what is being built — so there are no surprises later.

STEP 02

Fixed-scope proposal

A clear proposal broken down by phase, with an indicative range up front. You approve, adjust or stage it.

STEP 03

Build in sprints

We build in short sprints with regular demos, so you see working software early — not a big reveal in month four.

STEP 04

Launch & support

We launch, hand over clean documented code, and support it — with a retained team if you want one.

07 / FAQ

Questions people ask.

Ask us directly
Do you have an office in the UAE?

No. Devute is a UK company and we work with UAE clients remotely over video, with travel for workshops by arrangement.

Can you build a bilingual English and Arabic site?

Yes. We plan both languages from the start, including right-to-left layouts, and you supply or approve the Arabic copy so the tone is right for your audience.

How is invoicing handled?

Prices on the site are in pounds sterling and exclude VAT. The fixed quote you receive after the free audit sets out the exact amount and payment milestones.
