Mashreq, a leading financial institution in the MENA region, has partnered with Toothpick, a prominent healthcare platform with a network of more than 1,000 dental and aesthetic clinics, to launch Mashreq NEO Credit Loans, a new embedded financing solution that enables customers using Toothpick network clinics across the UAE to access flexible, high-value financing directly at the point of care.
The new partnership means for the first time in the UAE healthcare sector, patients can finance dental and aesthetic treatments of up to AED 150,000 through a fully digital, integrated, and seamless journey. The solution removes traditional payment barriers for higher-ticket procedures, allowing customers to proceed with treatments with greater confidence and affordability.
