02 · What we did
How we shipped
Checkout widget and app narratives focused on schedule clarity, merchant logos, and bilingual UX. Business portal path for retailers kept distinct from shopper acquisition.
03 · Takeaway
Why it mattered
Installments only convert when the next payment date is clearer than the product photo.
Tamara sits in checkout flows where trust and repayment schedules must be obvious in Arabic and English. Merchant integration density drives consumer habit.
