Onpassive (Arabic: اون باسيف sometimes stylized ONPASSIVE)[1] is a rapid transit station on the Red Line[2][3] of the Dubai Metro in Dubai, UAE, serving Al Quoz and surrounding areas.[4] The station is located on the Sheikh Zayed Road near the major junction with Al Manara Street.[5] Nearby are Al Quoz Bus Station, Kite Beach, Oasis Mall, and the Times Square Centre.[6] As well as Al Quoz, surrounding neighbourhoods include the eponymous Al Safa itself and Umm Suqeim. The station is close to a number of bus routes.[7]

The station has a history of naming rights arrangements; it opened as "Noor Bank" Station on 15 May 2010, and was renamed Al Safa on November 24, 2020, then Onpassive on January 11, 2023, after a Dubai-based technology company entered an agreement with the Dubai Roads and Transport Authority to purchase ten-year naming rights.[6][8][1]

In August 2023, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission filed a complaint against the Onpassive company, accusing it of fraudulently offering investors unregistered securities and operating an illegal pyramid scheme.[9] As the accusations remain unsettled, no action has been announced or taken on the naming of the station.
