The payments platform Network International told ARN News that the outage was caused due to an issue faced by their external service provider.

The temporary glitch, on Monday, affected payment transactions in locations ranging from coffee shops to petrol stations and even clinics.
In a statement, Network said: "A number of our clients in the UAE experienced intermittent connectivity which may have impacted payment transaction processing for a short period yesterday.
