Can shopping get any easier? MarkaVIP seals landmark deal with PayPal to make shopping seamless and shipping free

As more and more of us stretch out on the sofa to do our shopping rather than fight the crowds in the mall, it’s good to know that the online shopping experience offered by the Middle East’s largest flash sales fashion and lifestyle site has been made even easier.  MarkaVIP has just signed an exclusive deal with PayPal, the world’s largest online payment method, to offer shoppers a one-click payment method that also includes free shipping to any of the eight countries in which MarkaVIP operates. 

Now approaching its third year in operation MarkaVIP has certainly boosted online shopping in the region, offering a broad mix of premium brands and quirky one-of-a-kind fashion and lifestyle finds for men, women and children. Currently serving a community of more than 2.5 million members, it’s no wonder PayPal wants to partner with MarkaVIP to offer an exclusive billing agreement. 

Sohrab Jahanbani, COO of MarkaVIP explained:  “Our convenience promise to our customers is as important to MarkaVIP as our unrivalled choice of products, brands and fantastic deals.  As the only e-commerce company in the Middle East to be offered a direct billing agreement by PayPal, MarkaVIP is able to offer customers a truly secure and seamless shopping experience. Literally one click of the mouse to make a payment, and the added bonus of free shipping, really does bring a new dimension in convenience to shopping.”

As shoppers in the region become more online-savvy, confidence in payment methods is critical and PayPal, as the champion of online security worldwide, ensures just that.  The ease and simplicity of the secure online payment system gives convenience and peace of mind to more than 113 million active shoppers around the globe.  

Commenting on the partnership, Laurent Wakim, Business Development, PayPal Middle East and Africa, said; “MarkaVIP is a fantastic example of a Middle Eastern success story and a pioneer of online shopping in the region. PayPal is committed to working with local e-commerce merchants, such as MarkaVIP, to make online shopping more convenient and safer for consumers in the Middle East.”

One of the fastest growing shopping portals in the Middle East, MarkaVIP offers flash sales on more than 15,000 products daily. 

Discounts of up to 70% on men, women and children’s apparel, accessories, kids’ items, electronics and home décor make the site a shopper’s paradise, and with deals available for between three and five days only, it’s a site worth visiting daily.
