Digital marketing agency in Turkey and Istanbul — for Arab businesses and stores

SADUQ runs paid ads, builds stores and improves conversion for Arab-owned businesses in Turkey, especially in Istanbul. We work fully remotely and in Arabic, whether your customer is an Arabic speaker inside Turkey or in the Gulf and you ship to them from Turkey. We always start with the numbers: margin, cost per order, and where the customer drops between ad and order.

What is different about marketing from Turkey

  • Two audiences: an Arab business in Istanbul may sell to Arabic speakers inside Turkey or to customers in the Gulf. Each needs a different ad, offer and shipping promise; mixing them raises cost per order.
  • Language targeting: Meta lets you target Arabic speakers inside Turkey, so an Arabic ad reaches your audience instead of competing with the whole Turkish market.
  • Instagram first: most ad-driven buying runs through Instagram and TikTok, so creative decides the result before campaign settings do.
  • Lira and pricing: currency swings move your margin month to month, so we review the cost-per-order ceiling continuously.
  • Marketplace competition: big marketplaces such as Trendyol make customers compare prices fast, so your store needs a clear reason to buy from it.

Online stores in Turkey: what to know first

  • Payment gateways: Shopify Payments is not available in Turkey; stores use local gateways such as iyzico and PayTR, which determine currency, payment methods and instalments.
  • Language: Arabic for your Arab audience, plus English or Turkish depending on who you sell to — with an RTL front end that does not break.
  • Selling to the Gulf from Turkey: delivery time, shipping cost and payment method are part of the offer and must show on the product page before checkout.
  • Store building details on the Shopify service page and platforms in the platform comparison.
