About the Company

Tabby

Sharia-compliant BNPL payments for retailers

Tabby provides a buy now, pay later (BNPL) service that lets customers split purchases into four equal, interest-free payments. The service works through partnerships with retailers: at checkout, Tabby pays the retailer in full upfront, while the customer repays Tabby in four installments. In addition to BNPL, Tabby offers Tabby Shop, a platform to discover and track products from many brands with deals and coupons, and Tabby Card, a Visa-backed payment card that enables Pay in 4 anywhere Visa is accepted. The company’s offering is Shariah-compliant, avoiding interest charges. This positions Tabby to appeal to markets with significant Muslim populations. The main goal is to make consumer finance more flexible for shoppers while helping retailers increase sales and expanding the ecosystem with Shop and Card features.
