Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) isn’t just a trend—it’s the new norm. As Bain & Co.’s Erin McCune puts it, “Now, it is no longer a new-fangled thing, and if you’re selling into a younger generation, you’ve got to have it.” In fact, 40% of consumers used BNPL in the past year according to an October poll of about 1,000 consumers by the Electronic Transactions Association and the consulting firm The Strawhecker Group, signaling a major shift in how shoppers are spreading out costs. At Sezzle, we’re empowering merchants to meet this demand and helping consumers shop smarter with accessible, flexible payment options.
