Which one fits
Which one fits a Saudi or GCC store?
- You sell on Salla or Zid
- Arqam360 installs as a native app on both, sets Arabic as the default language and puts the banner on your storefront without code. Cookiebot has no Salla app, so on Salla its script goes into your theme by hand.
- You want to pay in riyals
- Arqam360 bills in Saudi riyals and 12 other currencies, and through Salla's or Zid's own billing when you install from their app stores. Cookiebot's pricing page offers eight currencies — euro, Swiss franc, Danish, Norwegian and Swedish krone, pound sterling, złoty and US dollar — and no Gulf currency.
- You need many languages
- Cookiebot translates its banner into 48 languages. Arqam360 is built for Arabic and English.
Pricing in detail
How each one charges
The two tools measure a store differently. Cookiebot counts subpages — every unique URL on a domain — and bills each domain separately; if its scanner finds more subpages than your plan allows, the plan moves up a tier. Arqam360 counts pageviews and domains. A store with a large catalogue has many product URLs, so it is worth checking both against your own numbers.

Arabic
Arabic support, compared fairly
Cookiebot does support Arabic: it is one of the 48 languages its banner text is translated into, and Cookiebot shows the language that matches the visitor's browser. We found no Cookiebot page that describes its right-to-left layout, so we make no claim about it either way — test it on your own store. Arqam360's difference is where it starts: installed from Salla or Zid, the banner opens in Arabic, right to left, with buttons that read «قبول الكل» and «رفض الكل».

Install from Salla or Zid and Arabic is the banner's default language, laid out right to left, with buttons written in Arabic: «قبول الكل» and «رفض الكل».
Salla, Zid + Shopify
