Cafe Bazaar app listing for MiniPay, store-reported counters ↗ · retrieved 2026-10-01A store install counter is the store's number, not the company's, and Cafe Bazaar rounds it. It is one Android store of several in Iran and it does not count Myket, where the app is also published, nor any direct download, so it is a floor on Android reach rather than a user count. The 2.9 rating from 728 votes is carried because the complaints on this listing are specifically about instalment amounts and payroll deductions, which bears directly on the employer-collection model described in the business row.
Business model & group
Instalment credit sold through employers, not direct to consumerRead 1 October 2026Company disclosed
MiniPay's Cafe Bazaar listing describes it as a credit purchase and instalment payment service offered as a customer club to the members of contracted organisations: members of those organisations register through the app, receive an instalment credit line according to the contracting organisation's own rules, and can see their instalments, their repayment capacity and the list of accepting merchants and branches. MiniPay's own site states that users activate a credit wallet and buy in instalments at more than 8,000 accredited stores. The site presents MiniPay as one app in a family it calls the Minis.
Cafe Bazaar app listing for MiniPay, developer description ↗ · retrieved 2026-10-01The profile's general description calls MiniPay a consumer buy-now-pay-later platform offering point-of-sale financing at partner merchants. That is not quite what either source describes. Distribution runs through contracting employers and repayment runs through the organisation's rules, with user reviews on the listing complaining about deductions from payroll, so the credit decision and the collection both sit with the employer rather than with a consumer underwriting model. That is a materially different business from direct-to-consumer instalment credit, and a different risk. One caution on the licences page: most of its body text is about buying and selling melted gold, which belongs to another app in the same family, so that page is shared boilerplate. Nothing about gold is reported in this profile.

MiniPay company website, licences page ↗ · retrieved 2026-10-01Brand-to-operator evidence, and it corroborates the Persian legal name in this profile, which previously rested on no linked source. Self-published licence claims are labelled company disclosed: none of the permit numbers were read from the issuing registers. The Cafe Bazaar publisher name, Mobtaker Pars Group, is a different string from the company named on the licences page; both are Mobtaker Pars and they are treated here as the same house rather than as a conflict, but the exact relationship between the group and the company is not established.
