Kuwait, 04 April 2021: Gulf Bank has announced the addition of Samsung Albabtain as part of a growing list of over 100 shopping partners in its Easy Pay program. Easy Pay, which is the first program of its kind in Kuwait, allows Gulf Bank credit cardholders to shop from a variety of different vendors and pay for their purchases in installments with 0% interest and no processing fees.

Established in 1999, Al-Babtain Turnkey Solutions Company specializes in distribution, retail and after-sales services for various mobile and digital devices, and today is the sole authorized agent for Samsung smartphones and tablets. The addition of Al-Babtain Turnkey Solutions Company as a Gulf Bank Easy Pay partner will provide Gulf Bank cardholders with the opportunity to shop for their favorite products via a simple and flexible payment method.

Gulf Bank’s General Manager of Consumer Banking, Mohammed Al-Qattan, commented: “Gulf Bank’s Easy Pay program is one of the Bank’s leading services due to its great impact in facilitating customers’ lives by enabling them to pay for their purchases over 12 months without any interest or additional fees. Today, Gulf Bank is proud to welcome Samsung Albabtain into its Easy Pay program, and we encourage all our clients to take advantage of a more convenient shopping experience.”

Al-Babtain Turnkey Solutions Company’s CEO, Mr. Khaled Al-Mejrin Al-Roumi, commented: “Gulf Bank has been a long-time partner with Al-Babtain Group, and going ahead with the new collaboration on Gulf Bank Easy Pay Program, I’m eager to extend our partnership and collaboration to benefit our customers and all the relevant stakeholders. I’m looking forward for the successful execution of this program and for future programs to increase our mutual businesses in alignment with our strategy of increasing our brand portfolio."

Gulf Bank’s Easy Pay program was designed as part of the Bank’s commitment to fulfilling client needs and aspirations, and includes a wide selection of clients’ preferred shopping outlets. The process of enrolling any transaction at participating shopping outlets into Easy Pay is seamless. Customers can simply request Easy Pay at the merchant outlet prior to making their purchase, and do not need to submit any additional documents or call the bank. The cashier at the merchant outlet will then process the credit card transaction on the dedicated Easy Pay terminal, and the transaction will be automatically converted into Easy Pay. Customers can also avail multiple Easy Pay facilities on their credit cards at the same time.
