Daman Investments leads the successful fundraising forSpotii, an innovative digital payments platform focused on fashion, beauty and lifestyle brands that is already making waves across the GCC e-commerce landscape.

Spotii has developed a trusted and inclusive way for customers to “Shop Now and Pay Later” over four equal instalments with no interest, no cost and no catch. Additionally, business owners receive several tangible benefits, including full upfront payment for their sales, larger basket sizes, improved conversion rates and fewer refunds.

As sister and brother, in addition to being founding partners, Anuscha Iqbal and Ziyaad Ahmed designed Spotii around a shared goal of helping small businesses and local brands by making their product offerings more attainable for the UAE shopping community.

Spotii’s mission is to empower customers to enjoy their shopping experience without worrying about excessive costs or hidden fees. At the same time, Spotiiprovides business owners with a proven and dynamic conversion strategy that also enhances customer loyalty. Spotii was designed to support the region’s e-commerce ecosystem and grow a vibrant community centred on people and trust. As more businesses gravitate online, providing an easy-to-use consumer friendly payments solution is a vital value-added service that businesses can offer theircustomers.

“The launch of this payments platform couldn’t have come at a better time, especially as business owners navigate the current market turbulence in order to position themselves for future success. We have been monitoring the start-up landscape for businesses that are able to traverse the current situation and would also be active contributors to the growth of the region. Spotii, as a brand and the strong teambehind it, has successfully tapped into the rapidly changing consumerbuying behaviour. We are confident that this product is well positioned to greatly contribute towards the fast developing fintech eco system in the GCC region” said Ahmed Khizer Khan,ChiefExecutiveOfficerofDamanInvestments.
