## Saudi Arabia at a glance

- **Wallet currency:** SAR
- **Hub:** Jeddah, Makkah and Madinah
- **Portal languages:** Arabic and English
- **Suggested template:** Faith for Umrah and Hajj; Groups & MICE for quoted programmes.

## How the trade works

Two businesses share one market. Umrah and Hajj operators sell packages to agents across Indonesia, Malaysia, India, Pakistan, Türkiye and North Africa, on a religious calendar rather than a leisure one. Alongside them, a new leisure inbound trade is being built around AlUla and the Red Sea.

## What operators here are loading

Makkah and Madinah hotels priced by distance and by season around Ramadan, ground transport between the holy cities and JED, and packaged programmes where the specification matters more than the per-person figure.

## Worth knowing

The Faith template is built for exactly this: calm, high-contrast, package-led, with the per-person price stepping back.

## A pilgrimage business and a brand-new leisure one, in the same office

Saudi Arabia is two markets that barely resemble each other. Umrah and Hajj are a high-volume, deadline-driven business built on hotel proximity to the Haram, group movement, and a regulatory process that has moved onto official digital platforms in recent years. Leisure inbound — AlUla, the Red Sea, Riyadh, Diriyah — is a new business with new suppliers, being built while it is being sold.

The pilgrimage side has a demand shape nothing else does: Ramadan is the compression period, distance to the mosque is the single largest price variable, and groups move on fixed dates with fixed transport. Bed-in-a-shared-room selling is normal, which is a different unit from the room-night most systems assume.

The agent networks are large and international — Indonesia, Pakistan, India, Türkiye, North and West Africa — and they buy in bulk, on credit, with hard deadlines.

## What that needs from a portal

Group movement, seasonal compression and an agent network that buys in volume.

- **Occupancy-based pricing**, so a room shared four ways is priced as what it is rather than as a discount on a double.
- **Ramadan is a season you draw**, with its own rates and its own cancellation terms, and it moves each year.
- **Group transfers as per-seat departures** with real capacity and a cut-off in local time.
- **Prepaid wallets per agent**, with statements that reconcile, for a network that buys in bulk across several countries.
