Network International, a leading payment solutions provider in the UAE, has announced a new partnership with Tabby, the region’s foremost buy now, pay later (BNPL) service. This collaboration enables UAE eCommerce merchants using Network’s N-Genius™ Online gateway to offer consumers the option to split their purchases into four interest-free payments.
The integration of BNPL solutions, which allow customers to defer payments without interest, is aimed at enhancing the online shopping experience, increasing conversions, and expanding merchant customer bases. This move comes as online shopping has surged post-pandemic, with BNPL options gaining popularity due to their flexibility and ease of use.
Andrew Key, President – Merchants and Governments at Network International, emphasized the significance of evolving digital payment methods. “As the largest payment solution provider in the country, Network is committed to pioneering solutions that broaden and enhance our merchants’ offerings. BNPL is poised to significantly influence the future landscape of digital payments, not just in the UAE but globally,” he stated.
Tabby, co-founded by Hosam Arab and Daniil Barkalov in late 2019, has quickly become a leading BNPL provider in the Middle East. Arab expressed enthusiasm about the partnership, noting, “Partnering with Network International, a regional leader in payment solutions, allows us to further support eCommerce merchants in enhancing their growth by providing customers with more flexibility at checkout.”
Network International’s N-Genius Online™ payment gateway, known for its advanced performance, security, and scalability, continues to facilitate secure and seamless transactions for merchants and consumers across the Middle East and Africa (MEA) region. This partnership marks another step towards expanding the UAE’s digital economy and adapting to its rapidly changing internet commerce landscape.
