Tabby is the UAE’s reference BNPL brand — default for merchants optimising pay-later conversion and shoppers expecting split payments.
Spotii targets BNPL checkout for GCC e-commerce — a solid second line for merchants diversifying pay-later providers.
PostPay emphasises post-purchase payments and instalments — evaluate when your stack needs another instalment option beyond Tabby/Spotii.
