Sakneen Checkout — reserve and pay online

The transaction layer for primary real estate.

Sakneen Checkout takes reservation and instalment payments online for primary real estate, from clients inside Egypt and abroad. Payment is tied to the unit record, so a successful payment removes the unit from available inventory immediately and updates the client's instalment schedule.

Why a bank transfer is not a reservation

Today a reservation is a promise, followed by a bank transfer, followed by a manual reconciliation two days later — during which the unit is neither properly held nor properly sold, and an expatriate buyer is asked to move money on trust.

Checkout makes the payment the event that changes the unit's state. Nothing is reserved because someone said so; it is reserved because the money arrived.

What it covers

Reservation payments

Card payment at the moment of reservation, from a link the salesperson sends or directly in the sales flow.

Instalments

Scheduled instalment payments collected from the same client profile, linked to the unit's payment plan.

International buyers

Egyptians abroad can pay without a domestic transfer, which is where a large share of primary demand sits.

Pricing

Checkout is consumption-priced per transaction rather than by subscription. Rates depend on payment method, currency and volume — contact us for a rate card against your expected mix.

Frequently asked questions

Which payment methods are supported?
Local and international cards through Sakneen's gateway partners, with bank transfer reconciliation for amounts above card limits. The available mix depends on your acquiring arrangements — confirm during setup.
Who holds the funds?
Funds settle to the developer's own merchant account. Sakneen orchestrates the payment and the record; it is not the merchant of record for your sales.
What happens if a payment fails mid-reservation?
The unit stays held for that client until the hold expires, and the failed attempt is recorded on the reservation so the salesperson can follow up rather than assume it completed.
