Two malls in Dubai introduce buy-now-pay-later option

Al-Futtaim Malls have partnered with Tabby, the shopping and payment app, to introduce Tabby Card at Dubai Festival City Mall and Festival Plaza, Jebel Ali.

The Tabby Card is a digital Visa card that allows customers to divide in-store purchases into four without worrying about interest or fees. Shoppers can add the Tabby Card to their digital wallet and use it easily by tapping their phone at checkout at all eligible stores.

Meanwhile, by partnering with retailers, Tabby allows customers to pay for their online and offline purchases in multiple instalments without interest charges.

Over 8,500 global brands and small businesses, including IKEA, Ace and Marks & Spencer, use Tabby to accelerate growth and gain customers by offering easy and flexible payments online and in stores.

Set up is easy and free, without needing prepaid top-ups or hidden fees.

Hayssam Hajjar, general manager of Al-Futtaim Malls – UAE, said: “We are always looking for ways to enhance the shopping experience we offer with a goal of ensuring a stress-free, convenient visit. With our partnership with Tabby and the launch of Tabby Card at Dubai Festival City Mall and Festival Plaza Jebel Ali, we are confident in achieving this goal and ensuring our customers enjoy a smarter, more agile method of shopping.”

Zarik Nabi, director of Cards at Tabby, added: “Our partnership with Al-Futtaim Malls enables us to increase merchant and customer awareness about Tabby in-store products, including the recently launched Tabby Card through activations across Al-Futtaim Malls.

“The Tabby Card that is now available to anyone who downloads the Tabby app will take our BNPL experience in-store and scale Tabby to new heights, creating a truly seamless omnichannel experience for customers to pay overtime, interest-free.”
