Tamara is the GCC\u2019s Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) provider.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This partnership enables businesses in the UAE and Saudi Arabia to offer flexible, split-payment solutions to their customers. The move comes as consumer demand for affordable and transparent payment methods continues to rise across the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tamara\u2019s Sharia-compliant payment solutions are expected to benefit various sectors. These include airlines, e-commerce, healthcare, insurance, education, fashion, and lifestyle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Customers can split payments into four equal installments.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Merchants may see improved basket sizes, higher conversion rates, and reduced cart abandonment.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Peter George, Managing Director of Amazon Payment Services MENA, said the partnership reflects their commitment to supporting businesses in the <a href=\"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/?s=digital+payments+\">digital payments<\/a> space.

The company already works with over 25 banks in the UAE, KSA, Egypt, and Jordan to offer credit card installment options of up to 36 months. Now, with Tamara\u2019s integration, Amazon Payment Services can serve both debit and credit card users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This strategic move enhances the payment options available to merchants through a single integration.
