Neem, Leopards Courier partner to digitize merchant payments in Pakistan

Neem, a leading embedded finance platform, has entered into a strategic partnership with Leopards Courier Services, one of Pakistan’s largest courier and logistics providers, to digitize financial settlements across the company’s merchant network, it announced in a press release on Tuesday.

The collaboration marks Neem’s official entry into the logistics sector through the launch of a white-labeled wallet infrastructure tailored for Leopards. The new digital wallet app, fully branded under Leopards Courier, will allow merchants to receive payments, manage balances, and make bank withdrawals more efficiently. The app will be available on both Android and iOS.

“We’re excited to partner with an industry leader like Leopards to bring embedded finance into one of Pakistan’s most critical sectors,” Neem Co-founder Nadeem Shaikh said. “This collaboration not only simplifies settlements for thousands of merchants but also opens the door for new fintech use cases in logistics.”

Leopards Courier Services aims to enhance its merchant settlement process through the fully compliant digital wallet. The integration will enable real-time payouts directly into Leopards-branded wallets, providing merchants with immediate access to their funds for transfers, payments, and withdrawals.

“At Leopards Courier Services, we’re committed to transforming logistics through innovation,” Zahid Ali Khosa, vice president commercial at Leopards Courier Services, said. “Our partnership with Neem enables a faster, smarter, and fully digital experience for merchants, reinforcing our position at the forefront of Pakistan’s logistics and fintech evolution.”

The initiative reflects Neem’s broader mission to embed responsible financial solutions within platforms widely used across the country. In addition to payments infrastructure, Neem offers a Shariah-compliant Earned Wage Access (EWA) solution for businesses of all sizes.
