RIYADH: 抖阴短视频鈥檚 General Authority of Zakat and Tax said that zakat received through the Zakaty e-service during Ramadan totaled more than SR75 million ($20 million).
The authority added that total zakat exceeded more than SR371 million since the service was launched five years ago.
It noted that social security beneficiaries registered with the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Development have directly benefited from Zakaty collections.
The service is available through the Zakaty application for smartphones. Beneficiaries can use safe and reliable payment methods in banks, through SADAD, Apple Pay and Mada, and other safe methods that ensure speed and flexibility in delivering zakat to eligible categories.
Beneficiaries have the ability to choose eligible categories registered with the social security services, the most prominent of which are families in greatest need of housing, families of divorced women and families of prisoners.
The service allows the calculation of zakat from different sources, including money, gold, silver and shares.
Zakaty issues invoices for each payment and reminds users of zakat dates.
During Ramadan, users increasingly interacted on Zakaty and many new users downloaded the application.
