Tabby Teams Up with Visa to Launch New In-Store Payment Solution
Niko Pajkovic — May 11, 2022 — Business
Tabby, a leading buy now, pay later app, has teamed up with digital payments giant Visa and M2P Fintech, Asia's biggest API infrastructure company, to launch the Tabby Visa Card.
The three-way partnership aims to make buying products in-store even easier by introducing a free virtual card that is easily accessible through the Tabby app. In addition, users will have the option to add the virtual Tabby Visa Card directly to their Apple wallets, Samsung Pay, or Google Pay, allowing them to easily tap and pay at cash-out without even needing the Tabby app.
Considering Tabby currently has over 1.5 million active shoppers in Saudi Arabia and the UAE, the new tap and pay solution should help secure the company as the Middle East's go-to buy now, pay later provider.
“Despite e-commerce growing in popularity, almost 90% of retail shopping in the Middle East still happens offline. At Tabby, we set out to create rewarding shopping experiences wherever customers purchase," said Daniil Barkalov, the COO and Co-founder of Tabby.
