  Commercial profile for Tamara's merchant offering. Tamara does not publish standardised
  MDR (Merchant Discount Rate) percentages — pricing is negotiated per merchant and depends
  on market (SA, AE, BH, KW, OM), volume, vertical, and which instalment options the
  merchant enables. The merchant receives the full transaction amount upfront, minus the
  per-transaction commission, settled on Tamara's standard weekly cycle.
notes: |
  Plans below capture the publicly observable commercial structure (merchant onboarding
  is free, no setup or monthly fee, per-transaction commission deducted at settlement).
  Specific percentages should be reconciled against a signed merchant agreement.
