Here are some of the BNPL perks for your business:

  • Higher conversion rates
  • Greater Average Order Value (AOV)
  • More customer insights
  • Fewer abandoned carts
  • More repeat business

Staying at the forefront of the financial industry is only possible through regular innovation. By developing a BNPL solution for one of our clients, we enabled them to offer BNPL to brick and mortar, m-commerce, and ecommerce merchants.

These are the results of our collaboration:

  • Attractive financial product for existing and new clients
  • Less risk of a chargeback
  • Customer choice of number of installment payments at checkout
  • Customer choice of payment method that suits their budget

 

Why Consumers Choose BNPL Over Other Payment Options

1) Convenience

BNPL loans usually require an upfront deposit payment or a portion such as 25% of the purchase amount. The remaining amount is then paid off in installments over a few weeks or months.

2) Zero- or low-interest rate

BNPL arrangements don't include interest or additional fees, but they could come with a fixed repayment schedule.

3) Soft Credit Check

To prevent fraud, a soft credit check is necessary to ensure the person’s identity. No credit check or underwriting is involved in the process.

4) Easy Approval Process

One of the valued features of BNPL is the quick, easy approval process. It doesn’t affect credit ratings, and it will be invisible to other creditors.
