The idea of allowing consumers to pay for goods over a number of instalments is by no means a new invention. Layaway and instalment payments have been part of the financial and consumer landscape for decades. But now, after a slow process of modernisation, the payment method has been transformed, rebranded, and expanded to reach a much wider global demographic. And we call it Buy Now, Pay Later or BNPL.
