Everyone dreams of shopping with freedom. The choice to buy whatever their heart desires, but people are often constricted due to financial burdens or other responsibilities. Quality products are often expensive, so people can only stretch their budgets to a certain limit. This is why we have introduced the concept of empowered shopping, which means breaking up the total into three equal amounts and paying subsequently in the upcoming months to ease off the up-front financial burden.
Established in 2019, ATOME is based on the “Buy now pay later” model. The new payment model allows the consumer to buy the product without paying the full price. Earlier, many short-term financing models held off the product till full payment was received. However, in BNPL, you can take the product after paying just a fraction of the full price.
ABOUT ATOME
ATOME is one such BNPL service that allows consumers to take home their purchase after paying only a third of the total price. It is part of Advance Intelligence Group, a Series C big data and AI company headquartered in Singapore, recently named in LinkedIn’s 2020 Top Startups List in Singapore. ATOME stands for Available To Me, and our service is available in Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Hong Kong, and mainland China. We have liaised up with over 2000 local and international brands that can cater to our targeted market.

FINAL WORDS
ATOME has supported the tagline “Time to own it,” implying that it is essential for all people to own up to their passions. In the race of life, we often forget our desires. In fulfilling our duties and responsibilities, we frequently ignore our needs. Mostly, it is the financial burdens that make us overlook our needs. This is why ATOME came up with this tagline.
