Taking inspiration from the age-old tradition of a khaata or tab (book of accounts) used by merchants to serve their regular customers, Simpl is scaling this concept for digital commerce. Simpl enables merchants to give their consumers a safe and seamless 1-click checkout experience while consumers can aggregate their transactions with Simpl’s Buy Now Pay Later line of credit, get strong buyer protection and instant chargebacks. By powering this best-in class mobile-first buying experience, Simpl helps merchants increase cart conversion, basket size and order frequency along with driving loyalty & retention of their customers.
