Beyond Credit Cards: How ‘Pay Later’ Momentum Is Reshaping The Payments Ecosystem

Buy now, pay later (BNPL) isn’t just a niche payment option anymore — it’s rapidly becoming a permanent fixture in how consumers budget, shop and pay, according to five industry leaders whose insights preview the new eBook, “Reimagining Consumer Finance: The Strategic Rise of Buy Now, Pay Later.”. Max Levchin, founder and CEO of Affirm, sees the sector evolving into a trusted, ubiquitous service — similar to how American Express became a household name in credit.

As this week’s “Pay Later Unpacked” virtual event draws to a close, we’ve heard a lot from the consumer-facing side of the house, as consumers are defining the use cases and payment preferences that drive this new format. We’ve heard a lot about how buy now, pay later (BNPL) services have fundamentally transformed consumer lending by underwriting individual transactions rather than consumer credit profiles themselves. But as the week closes out, let’s give payment processors their due. The BNPL revolution wouldn’t be possible without modern payment processing infrastructure that bypasses decades-old financial systems
