About Money Luna
The UAE's financial landscape is complicated.
We made it simple.
Money Luna is a free financial resource built specifically for UAE expats and residents - practical tools, no-nonsense guides, and zero hidden agendas.
Our Story
The gap we couldn't ignore.
We believe financial information should be transparent, independent, and easy to act on. That belief is what Money Luna is built on.
When we first moved to Dubai, we quickly discovered how complex the UAE financial landscape is. Which bank should we choose? What do credit card benefits actually give you? Where should savings go? Nobody had a straight answer - and the information that did exist was either generic advice, or a sales pitch in disguise.
We spent a year going through the fine print. We read the terms, compared the rates, and worked out how UAE banks actually operate. Slowly, we built a financial setup that worked - and realised that everything we'd learned should be available to everyone in the UAE, not just those willing to spend hours digging.

Real people. Real results.
I've always kept my savings in my salary account. I followed Money Luna's advice and moved the money to a savings account. Now it makes me 3,100 per year.
Olivia
Teacher, 7 years in the UAE
Money Luna has genuinely helped me optimise my finances in ways I wouldn't have discovered on my own. From choosing cashback cards to switching my account - it's a fantastic starting point and an even better ongoing resource.
Zayed
Finance Professional, 5 years in the UAE
My nanny used to queue for up to an hour every month to send money home. Money Luna's tip to use Careem saved her time and 130 in FX fees every month.
Rohan
Financial Services, 1 year in the UAE
Reading Money Luna's newsletters, I found myself guilty on a lot of the topics. I now feel like I have a much better understanding of the UAE financial landscape - and I'm more in control of my money.
