Tamara’s “Split in 3” option allows you to split your payments into 3 interest-free payments. The first payment is made once your order is placed, and the next two payments are made over the course of 60 days. Here’s how you can make an order with Tamara:

  • Choose how you want to shop; Tamara is available online (and in-store).*
  • Select Tamara at the time of payment. Choose our “Split in 3” option upon checkout.
  • Log in using your mobile number and verify via a one-time password.
  • If you are based in KSA or UAE, verify your ID.
  • Enter your payment details and complete your first payment.
  • Make the rest of your payments for your order according to the payment plan chosen at the time of checkout, which is reflected in the due dates shown on Tamara’s mobile app.

Repayment to Tamara

Yes, you can! Log in to your account using the Tamara app available on the App Store for iOS, Google Play for Android, or on our website. Select the payments you'd like to make, and then make your payment using your preferred method:

For KSA: Mada, Visa, Mastercard, Amex card, or Apple Pay.

For AE: Visa, Mastercard, or Apple Pay.

For KW: Knet, Visa or Mastercard

Yes! If auto charge is not enabled, you may select your payment method at the time of payment. Log in to your Tamara account, go to Settings, navigate to Payments Methods, and add a different card or simply choose to pay with a different card at the time of payment

If auto charge is enabled, due payments are automatically deducted from the card linked to your profile. To change your card, first, add your new card and then delete the previously used card from your profile.

Please note that one card cannot be linked to two different Tamara accounts.

You will be able to see your payment plan at the last step of checkout. You will also receive it via email from Tamara upon the confirmation of your order. In addition, you can download the Tamara app to receive payment reminders via push notifications and to keep track of your upcoming due payments and the dates by which you are scheduled to pay them. Tamara will also send you payment reminders over SMS.

When selecting our “Split in 3” option, your first payment is due upon making an order. Once your first payment is made, your order is confirmed and will be shipped to you as per the store’s policy. If you have any questions or concerns regarding payments, kindly reach out to the Tamara Customer Care team for support.

As long as you make your payments on time, you will never be charged a late fee! However, if you miss a payment due date, Tamara charges a late fee of SAR/AED 25 or KWD 2 one day after the due date. An additional late fee of SAR/AED 25 or KWD 2 will be charged with every 15 days of delay. Fees are limited to SAR/AED 150 or KWD 12 or 25% of the order value (the minimum of the two options will apply).

Please note: Repeated delays in payment will be reported to the credit bureau in Saudi Arabia (SIMAH), AECB in the United Arab Emirates, or Ci-Net in Kuwait. This will impact your credit score and lead to the suspension of your Tamara account until your entire overdue amount, including late fees, is paid in full.
