PIE has enhanced its payment solutions by integrating Flooss’s split payment functionality directly into point-of-sale (POS) devices, enabling more flexible checkout experiences for merchants and consumers.
The integration allows customers to split payments into instalments at the point of purchase, without requiring separate applications or post-transaction processing. By embedding the capability into POS systems, the solution simplifies the checkout flow and reduces friction for both retailers and buyers.
The move reflects growing demand for buy now, pay later (BNPL) and flexible payment options across the region, particularly in retail environments where affordability and conversion rates are closely linked. Offering split payments at checkout is expected to increase basket sizes and improve customer acquisition for merchants.
PIE’s expansion aligns with broader fintech trends in the Middle East, where payment providers are increasingly integrating value-added services into existing infrastructure to enhance user experience and drive transaction growth.
As digital payments continue to evolve, embedded finance solutions such as instalment-based payments are becoming a key differentiator for payment platforms competing in the retail and commerce ecosystem.
Editor’s Note:
Embedded BNPL at the POS level signals the next phase of payments innovation in the region. Integrating flexible finance directly into checkout flows is becoming a key lever for merchant growth and consumer adoption.
