What we do

We are a UAE-based marketing business that leverages the strength of our loyal user base to source exciting products and services from local businesses at great discounts, creating value for our users, and customer creation for the business. We use strength in numbers and unbeatable values to help buyers and sellers benefit from discovering each other. We connect our Subscribers (we call them “Nabbers”) to cool stuff they can do in their city each day.

  • We find you something cool to do in your local area every day and we make sure that we get you the best price for doing it.
  • Each deal requires a minimum number of people so you need to invite your friends.
  • Subscribers sign-up on our website to receive details of the daily deal in an email sent to them every day.
  • Each deal is only available for a limited time. If the minimum number of people for the deal is not reached then no one gets charged and no one gets the deal. If the minimum is exceeded then the deal is 'on' and everyone that signed up for the deal is charged and receives a voucher from GoNabit.

 

Our Core Values

  1. Do things that matter
  2. Be the CEO of something
  3. Race like a pro – fast and smart
  4. Leave happiness in your wake
  5. No one wins unless everyone wins
  6. Be remarkable daily
