British fintechs are jumping into the booming buy now, pay later market
Monzo and Revolut, two of Britain’s best-known financial technology firms, are planning to enter the booming “buy now, pay later” industry.
Buy now, pay later, or BNPL, plans are an increasingly popular method of payment that lets users spread the cost of their purchases over a series of interest-free instalments. The trend was pioneered by the likes of Swedish fintech Klarna and Australian firm Afterpay.
It’s now attracting interest from some of the world’s biggest companies, with PayPal launching its own BNPL service, Amazon and Apple partnering with U.S. provider Affirm, and Afterpay being sold to Square, the payments company owned by Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey.
