According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Buy Now Pay Later Market is accounted for $28.83 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach $131.47 billion by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 24.2% during the forecast period. The Buy now pay later (BNPL) is a financial service sector that allows consumers to make purchases and defer payment for them over time. It provides an alternative to traditional credit cards and installment loans, offering flexibility and convenience to consumers. With BNPL, customers can split their payments into interest-free installments, making it an attractive option for budget-conscious shoppers. Online retailers and brick-and-mortar stores alike are increasingly integrating BNPL options into their checkout processes to enhance the customer shopping experience and drive higher conversion rates.

According to the Bank of America Corp., the market for these BNPL payment apps is expected to grow 10-15 times by 2025

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Rise in artificial intelligence (A.I.) technology integration

The development of models in real-time and improved decision-making are made possible by machine learning and artificial intelligence (A.I.) technologies. To speed up consumer market penetration, a number of industry players are developing specialized AI-based models. For instance, in January 2022, Temenos, a provider of banking software, unveiled a BNPL banking service powered by AI within its Temenos Banking Cloud platform. The platform is based on artificial intelligence (A.I.) technology and provides opportunities through alternative credit options for clients and merchants. As A.I. technology is increasingly used to expand the real-time customer base, this trend will be driven by the worldwide market.

Restraint:

Lack of awareness of service

While BNPL offers consumers the convenience of deferred payment for purchases, many potential users remain unaware of its availability or the benefits it offers. Limited knowledge about the service's terms and conditions, fees, and potential risks may deter potential customers from adopting BNPL options. Furthermore, concerns about accumulating debt and potential impact on credit scores may deter individuals from using BNPL, especially if they are not adequately informed about responsible usage. Addressing this lack of awareness through educational initiatives and transparent communication is crucial for the BNPL market to realize its full potential and attract a broader user base.

Opportunity:

Rising adoption of online ecommerce application

As e-commerce continues to grow, consumers seek flexible and convenient payment options, making BNPL services an attractive proposition. With the shift towards digital shopping platforms, BNPL providers can integrate their services seamlessly, offering consumers the choice to split their payments over installments, easing the burden of upfront costs. The convenience and simplicity of BNPL appeal to a broader customer base, driving higher adoption rates. As online shopping becomes increasingly prevalent, BNPL providers have the chance to expand their services and tap into the growing e-commerce market, elevating the overall growth and success of the BNPL industry.

Threat:

High late fee charges

While BNPL services offer convenient and flexible payment options, customers risk accumulating additional costs if they fail to meet payment deadlines. Exorbitant late fees can deter users from utilizing BNPL, as the fear of incurring substantial penalties may outweigh the benefits of deferred payment. To address this concern, BNPL providers must strike a balance between ensuring timely payments and offering reasonable late fee structures. Implementing transparent and fair late fee policies can build trust with customers, encouraging wider adoption of BNPL services and promoting responsible usage in the market.

Covid-19 Impact:

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a positive impact on the market. The global economic crisis has reduced household incomes, increasing the need for liquidity, which is predicted to last through 2022. Consumer confidence in using different online payment methods to buy things has been fuelled by the pandemic and has created a new norm for online shopping. Amid addition, amid difficult economic conditions banks frequently refrain from extending credit. In these situations, BNPL's solutions assist clients in making recurring payments on their invoices. The COVID-19 pandemic has consequently led to a considerable increase in BNPL transactions.

The travel & accommodation segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The travel & accommodation segment held the largest share in the market owing to the increasing demand as their services are now extended beyond retail purchases to include vacation expenses such as flights, hotels, and tours. By offering deferred payment options for travel and accommodation, BNPL providers cater to consumers' desire for flexible and budget-friendly vacation planning. This enables travelers to book their dream trips without the need for immediate full payment, making travel more accessible and affordable. With the rising popularity of travel and the convenience of BNPL, this segment has seen substantial growth, empowering travelers to explore new destinations and experiences while managing their expenses responsibly.

The online segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

During the projection period, the online segment is expected to have the greatest CAGR. Online shopping's surging popularity has propelled the adoption of BNPL services, with digital retailers seamlessly integrating these payment options into their checkout processes. Customers appreciate the convenience and flexibility of BNPL, allowing them to make purchases without immediate full payment, making it an attractive choice for various goods and services. Furthermore, the online nature of BNPL ensures quick and easy application processes, instant approvals, and prompt transactions, enhancing the overall user experience. As e-commerce continues to thrive, BNPL's online presence provides a robust and promising landscape for the market's growth and expansion.

Region with largest share:

The North America region market is estimated to witness the highest share of the global Buy Now Pay Later market during the forecast period. With a mature e-commerce landscape and a large consumer base, BNPL services have gained significant traction. Online retailers and brick-and-mortar stores alike are integrating BNPL options into their checkout processes to offer customers a convenient and flexible payment alternative. The region's tech-savvy population values seamless digital experiences, making BNPL an appealing choice for a wide range of purchases. Additionally, BNPL providers in North America focus on building trust and loyalty by offering transparent and reasonable fee structures. As the BNPL market continues to evolve, North America remains at the forefront of its expansion and innovation.

Region with highest CAGR:

The Asia Pacific region is expected to have the highest growth rate over the forecast period. The region's expanding middle class, rising disposable incomes, and increasing digitalization have contributed to the surge in online shopping and e-commerce platforms, creating a favorable environment for BNPL services. As consumers seek flexible and convenient payment options, BNPL providers have capitalized on the region's booming e-commerce market, integrating their services with various online retailers and payment gateways.
