Getting paid in Oman
The basics, with sources
Public facts from official sources, each with its date. Not advice: check with your bank.
Local bank payments
The Central Bank of Oman owns and runs the RTGS system, which settles each transfer between banks one by one. Its Automated Clearing House (ACH) handles smaller direct credits and debits, which are then settled in RTGS at set times.

Mobile payments
MP-Clear, another system run by the Central Bank of Oman, lets people make payments through a mobile app.
