New checkout option for students
Gift the basket,
not the cash.
Otterpay sits next to Klarna at checkout. Click it, pick a parent or mate, and they pay for exactly what's in your basket — no awkward Monzo requests.

Four steps from "please?" to paid.
No more screenshots of your Tesco order on the family WhatsApp. Just a clean, itemised request.
01
Curate your basket
Add what you actually need — groceries, lecture notebooks, a fit for Friday.
02
Hit the Otterpay button
Sits right next to Klarna and Clearpay. One tap opens your friend list.
03
Pick who treats you
Mum, Dad, Nan, a flatmate who owes you a favour. Add a quick note.
04
They pay — you ship
They get an alert, see the exact basket, and pay in two taps on their phone.
Why parents actually say yes
They see exactly what they're paying for.
Cash is a leap of faith. A £40 Tesco basket with rice, pasta and printer ink is not. Otterpay shows the line items, the merchant, and the total — before any money moves.
- Itemised basket, not a vague number
- Pays the merchant directly — never your account
- One-tap decline if it's not the right week
- Works on any device, no app to download for the payer
