About PAYLATA

Device finance for the next billion consumers

For millions of people, a smartphone is a livelihood — a storefront, a bank branch, a classroom — yet the upfront price keeps it out of reach. PAYLATA, the consumer finance brand of TAILAI HOLDINGS LIMITED, combines digital products, intelligent risk decisions and local retail partnerships to make device ownership simple, fair and attainable.

Emerging Market Focus

We build for high-growth consumer markets across Africa and Latin America, with a deep understanding of local shoppers, retailers and mobile-first daily life.

Technology-Driven Finance

Data models, intelligent risk decisions and fully digital workflows make financing fast at the counter and safe over the life of every plan.

Responsible by Design

We lend prudently and operate with strong attention to regulation, data security and user privacy — because trust is the product underneath the product.

How it works

From shop counter to your pocket in three steps

No paperwork marathons. No waiting weeks. PAYLATA is built for the way people actually buy phones.

Choose your phone

Pick the device you want at a PAYLATA partner store or through a participating retailer — real choice from brands people trust.

Get a quick decision

Markets

Built for Africa, Latin America and other high-growth markets
