Leading BNPL platform in MENA with 10M+ users across Saudi Arabia, UAE, and Kuwait. Valued at $1.5B after $200M Series D; partners with 30,000+ brands.
Tabby is the leading buy now, pay later (BNPL) platform in the Middle East and North Africa, founded in 2019 and headquartered in Dubai, UAE. The company was built to address the MENA region's unique financial landscape — high smartphone penetration, a large unbanked and underbanked population, and consumer demand for installment-based purchasing that predates modern fintech. Tabby's mission is to make financial freedom accessible across the region.\n\nTabby's core product lets shoppers split purchases into four interest-free payments or pay later in 30 days, with no credit card required. The platform integrates with more than 30,000 merchant partners across fashion, electronics, health and beauty, and home categories. Tabby operates across Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Kuwait, with Saudi Arabia representing the largest share of GMV. The business model monetizes through merchant fees, similar to other BNPL providers, while offering consumers a zero-interest product.\n\nTabby has scaled to more than 10 million users and achieved a $1.5 billion valuation following its $200 million Series D round. The company is one of the few MENA-born fintech unicorns and has benefited from the region's rapid e-commerce growth and favorable regulatory environment for BNPL. In 2025–2026, Tabby has expanded its financial services offerings beyond BNPL, exploring savings and credit products to deepen its relationship with its large and growing consumer base.
Global payments infrastructure founded by Patrick and John Collison (YC W10); $1.4T payments volume in 2024; $18B+ revenue; $106.7B valuation as of Sept 2025; powers everything from startups to Fortune 500 companies with developer-first API design.
Stripe is a global payments infrastructure company founded in 2010 by Irish brothers Patrick and John Collison, headquartered in San Francisco, California and Dublin, Ireland. Stripe was born from the insight that accepting payments online was unnecessarily complex for developers, and that a well-designed API could unlock an entire generation of internet businesses. The company went through Y Combinator's Winter 2010 batch and grew to become the defining payments infrastructure layer of the modern internet economy, processing payments for businesses in virtually every industry worldwide.\n\nStripe's platform provides payment processing, fraud prevention via Stripe Radar, subscription billing, revenue recognition, banking-as-a-service through Stripe Treasury, corporate card issuance, identity verification, and tax compliance tools. It serves a spectrum from early-stage startups to publicly traded enterprises including Amazon, Google, Salesforce, and Shopify. Stripe's developer-first philosophy — comprehensive documentation, SDKs in every major language, and a sandbox testing environment — created an ecosystem of millions of businesses built entirely on its infrastructure.\n\nStripe processed $1.4 trillion in total payment volume in 2024 and generates over $18 billion in annual revenue, with a valuation of $106.7 billion as of September 2025. The company has remained private longer than most comparably sized technology companies, giving it flexibility to invest in long-term product expansion. An April 2024 partnership with Apple Pay extended Stripe's reach further into mobile and in-store commerce. Stripe competes with Adyen, Braintree (PayPal), and Square, but its developer ecosystem depth and global infrastructure make it the default payments platform for a generation of technology companies.
