According to Investopedia, Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) is a type of short-term financing that allows consumers to make purchases and pay for them at a future date, often interest-free. Also referred to as “point of sale installment loans,” BNPL arrangements are becoming an increasingly popular payment option, especially when shopping online. Starting a BNPL platform requires understanding the rudiments and requirements that make it a successful venture. Venturing into BNPL is still quite nascent compared to other sectors in the FinTech industry. In this article, I discuss seven must-needed features for BNPL.

Final Words
BNPL is a very interesting FinTech service that is highly needed in an emerging market like Nigeria due to several reasons. First, Nigeria is a middle-class economy where people live from paycheck to paycheck, which has made it difficult for them to meet their needs. And people often have to let go of a significant part of their earnings, if not all, to purchase things. Hence, this makes it profitable for BNPL to establish its startups in Nigeria.
