WeMENA is launching an innovative\u202fnew digital payment platform, Spotii. WeMENA \u2013 which offers organizations in excess of 25,000 wholesale products via its free to use online catalog \u2013 is helping SMEs<\/a> thrive in the pandemic with the chance to spread purchases over installments with no interest, no cost, and no catch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The latest feature offered by WeMENA, the tech-forward online purchasing platform \u2013 which began operations in January \u2013 is the result of a partnership with Spotii, a disruptive UAE-based start-up that aims to ease the burden of costly purchases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pali Banwait, the co-founder, says: \u201cWe immediately saw synergies with Spotii, and were keen to work with them to provide another advantage for our ever-growing customer base. Spotii\u2019s trustworthy, reliable and innovative payment mechanism helps WeMENA in our mission to help the local SME market, by allowing them a less stressful way to maintain stock without the worry of the sometimes crippling initial outlay. We applaud the Spotii team for seamlessly integrating their fantastic concept with ours \u2013 this is truly a partnership made to benefit everyone, at a time when it\u2019s most needed.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After signing up for an account with Spotii \u2013 which only requires ID and payment card details, SMEs<\/a> can enjoy purchases via WeMENA with a 25% upfront payment, followed by three equal payments which purchasers make biweekly. Spotii never charges interest and there are zero fees when payments are made on time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anuscha \u202fIqbal, co-founder, and CEO of Spotii, says: \u202f\u201cWeMENA provides a unique value proposition to SMEs<\/a>. We are thrilled to be partnering with them to enhance the offering. By allowing WeMENA\u2019s clients to Shop Now and Pay Later, Spotii is providing small retailers with the ability to better manage their cash flow during these uncertain times.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ziyaad\u202f Ahmed, co-founder and COO\/CFO of Spotii, adds:\u202f\u201cThe partnership with WeMENA is very natural, as we share their commitment to supporting local SMEs<\/a>. Spotii was born out of a desire to accelerate and enhance the online ecosystem. Providing truly cost-free installment programs helps reduce online payment friction and support buyers.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis partnership allows Spotii to provide WeMENA\u2019s clients with deeper capabilities to move inventory faster and more efficiently, extending our support to the local SME community.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Among the website\u2019s 25,000 strong product line \u2013 with hundreds of more products being added every week \u2013 is everything companies might need to protect key workers, staff, and their families from contracting and spreading the virus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WeMENA brings bulk purchasers together with reliable, trustworthy manufacturers, distributors, and wholesalers. Buyers include retailers, hospitality outlets, offices, and the procurement departments of large organizations \u2013 all of which can spread their procurement costs over six weeks, rather than in one immediate, lump-sum payment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WeMENA provides sellers with hassle-free access to new business customers, providing them with reliable payment solutions, while also handling all delivery logistics and post-delivery customer service issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The site provides buyers with easy access around the clock to the latest products at highly competitive prices, not only saving the time and hassle of product sourcing but also negating the need to visit tradeshows and wholesale markets \u2013 something which isn\u2019t possible in the current circumstances.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
