With the FuturePay® digital revolving credit solution — MyTab™ — shoppers have the freedom to apply once, buy often and pay later with flexible payment terms, without the hassle of credit cards or single-purchase BNPL installment loans.
For merchants, MyTab’s revolving credit line encourages repeat purchases and allows them to develop long-term engagements with their customers, building brand loyalty and increasing the customer lifetime value (LTV) of those relationships.
Here’s how it works
Digital Revolving Credit enables consumers to put purchases on a digital version of a “tab.”
When online shoppers are ready to checkout, they choose MyTab as the payment option, and apply for a revolving line of credit within minutes from any device.
79% of smartphone users have made an online purchase on their phone in the last six months. That’s why MyTab is designed for mobile users to have a fast, fun, and easy checkout experience on a device of their choice.
Merchants get paid within two business days, and shoppers can pay flexibly over time or pay their tab in full. MyTab’s flexible payment options allow shoppers to create a schedule that fits their budgets, compared to the more rigid fixed installment payment plans associated with traditional BNPL options.
Shoppers don’t have to reapply for additional financing every time they want to make additional purchases. And since digital revolving credit accounts are private, they can provide a credit line for discretionary purchases separate from credit cards.
Freedom and flexibility for shoppers
For customers who don’t have a credit card, prefer a flexible payment schedule, or want a faster and easier way to complete new and recurring online purchases, FuturePay is a shopper-friendly solution that is disrupting traditional payments.
Here are some of the key benefits for customers:
- Flexible payment terms – with a minimum payment of $20/month, customers get the freedom to choose how and when they will pay back their purchases.
- Apply once, buy often - MyTab allows consumers to reuse their credit on a long-term basis as long as their accounts remain in good standing.

Increased revenue and loyalty for merchants
One of the leading causes of cart abandonment (55% of shoppers) is being asked to enter a credit card a second time. Also, according to one source $145 Billion in sales are lost each year to credit card failures. Many of these failures come from users who simply have out-of-date credit card information stored on devices and sites.
