Kazakhstan business profile
Main business hubs
Almaty, Astana and Shymkent. We work with companies across these hubs remotely, with on-site workshops for larger engagements.

Talent market
Growing tech workforce. Many Kazakhstan companies extend their teams with NNT engineers to move faster without long hiring cycles.
Digital infrastructure
Kaspi super-app and good urban connectivity. We design hosting, payments and integrations around this local infrastructure.
Working culture
Kazakh and Russian; relationship-driven. Our project managers adapt communication, documentation and meeting cadence accordingly.
Who buys a on-demand delivery app in Kazakhstan
Fintech
Fintech customers in Kazakhstan value secure onboarding, ledgers that reconcile to the cent, real-time payments and audit-ready reporting. The admin panel module is usually their first priority, and they judge success on onboarding completion rate and time to approve an application.
Energy
Energy customers in Kazakhstan value asset maintenance, field-service apps, sensor dashboards and safety compliance. The payments module is usually their first priority, and they judge success on asset uptime and mean time to repair.
Crypto (AIFC)
Crypto (AIFC) customers in Kazakhstan value licence-ready custody, transaction monitoring, wallet security and clear user disclosures. The customer app module is usually their first priority, and they judge success on deposit-to-trade conversion and withdrawal processing time.
Example: on-demand delivery app for a crypto (aifc) business in Astana
Consider a crypto (aifc) company in Astana (aifc financial centre and government). A typical on-demand delivery app engagement would start with admin panel, then payments, and finish the first release with customer app — usually within 12–18 weeks.
Payments would run through Kaspi Pay, data would be handled under Law on Personal Data and its Protection, and success would be measured on deposit-to-trade conversion, withdrawal processing time and share of assets in cold custody.
Example: on-demand delivery app for a energy business in Astana
Consider a energy company in Astana (aifc financial centre and government). A typical on-demand delivery app engagement would start with merchant app, then driver app, and finish the first release with dispatch engine — usually within 12–18 weeks.
Payments would run through Kaspi Pay, data would be handled under Law on Personal Data and its Protection, and success would be measured on asset uptime, mean time to repair and field visits per technician.

Law on Personal Data and its Protection: compliance checklist for a on-demand delivery app
Before launch in Kazakhstan, we work through this checklist with your team and advisers:
- Map every personal-data field to a lawful purpose under Law on Personal Data and its Protection.
- Decide where data is hosted and whether data about Kazakhstan customers must stay in-region.
- Implement consent records plus data-subject access and deletion workflows.
- Encrypt data in transit and at rest; restrict and log administrative access.
- Prepare a breach-notification procedure that meets the timelines that apply in Kazakhstan.
- Review contracts and data-processing agreements for every third-party service.
Hosting and data residency for a on-demand delivery app in Kazakhstan
For clients in Kazakhstan we usually host on Singapore, Mumbai or Sydney cloud regions. The choice balances latency for local users, Law on Personal Data and its Protection requirements on where personal data may be stored or transferred, and any sector rules your regulator sets. Backups and disaster-recovery copies follow the same residency decision.
Localising your on-demand delivery app for Kazakhstan
Business in Kazakhstan is mainly conducted in Kazakh and Russian. We build interfaces, notifications and documents ready for those languages, format dates, numbers and KZT amounts the local way, and plan releases around the UTC+5 working day.
