The UAE Ministry of Finance (MoF) has unveiled a groundbreaking initiative allowing residents to pay federal government fees and fines in monthly instalments through the Tabby app. Announced on Tuesday, this move leverages the ‘Buy Now, Pay Later’ model, offering customers flexibility in managing their financial obligations. Under this arrangement, Tabby will settle the full amount with the relevant government entity upfront, while customers repay the sum in pre-agreed instalments. This service is optional, with the associated commission borne solely by the user. The partnership with Tabby aligns with the MoF’s broader strategy to enhance digital payment solutions, foster financial inclusion, and support the UAE’s digital transformation. Saeed Rashid Al Yateem, MoF’s Assistant Undersecretary for Government Budget and Revenue Sector, emphasized the ministry’s commitment to adopting cutting-edge financial technologies to improve customer satisfaction and provide secure, flexible payment options. Hosam Arab, co-founder and CEO of Tabby, expressed pride in supporting the MoF’s mission to make federal services more accessible across the UAE. This initiative underscores the UAE’s progressive approach to integrating modern financial tools into public services, ensuring convenience and efficiency for residents.
