Description

The University of Birmingham intends to enter into a temporary contract with RAK Bank (United Arab Emirates) to provide an online student fee payment solution for its Dubai campus. This service will enable students to make tuition payments via card through RAK Bank's online payment platform, Skiply. The contract is expected to run for a period sufficient to cover the interim period until a full competitive tender process is completed and a new long-term provider is appointed. The estimated annual value of the contract is approximately £260,000, based on a conservative assumption that 75% of students will use this payment method. This temporary arrangement will ensure continuity of service for students and the University's finance operations while the University prepares to go to market for a comprehensive online payment solution covering both UK and Dubai campuses. The full tender is anticipated to be issued later in 2025 or early 2026, with a new contract in place by July 2026.
