“We are delighted to bring a flexible payment solution to our customers and offer shoppers cutting edge technology which adds to their online experience,” says Neil Smith, co-founder of Raru whose products extend beyond gaming to offer a wide selection of popular items from technology and hobbies to books, pet products, music, stationery, toys and even items for the hobby enthusiast.

“From Raru’s wireless headsets, monitors to the latest Lego set, DVDs and beyond, Payflex will empower Raru.co.za customers to flex the way they pay, with a choice of either an immediate, once-off payment or a simple, cost-effective shop-now pay-later option which spans 2 paychecks.
