DUBLIN – The “Global Buy Now Pay Later Top Market Players 2022” report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.
The Buy Now Pay Later (BNPL) transaction volume has been rising rapidly, with still more growth to come over the next five years, according to this report.
Competition is becoming more intense, as companies from other sectors join the race and challenge the BNPL specialists. As a result, established market leaders expand beyond consumer lending and launch new banking, payment, and shopping services.
Klarna, Afterpay, and Affirm are revealed as the world’s largest BNPL companies in the yStats.com report. All three boast millions of users, with Klarna leading both by the number of consumers and retailers using its services. Sweden-based company also has the largest GMV, rising at a strong double-digit rate between 2020 and 2021.
The strongest sales growth, however, was recorded by Australia’s Afterpay. In early 2022, this BNPL specialist was acquired by a leading payments company Block (formerly Stripe). Together, Afterpay and Block will create synergies between their respective BNPL and payments offerings. Another fast-growing market leader is Affirm. Due to its cooperation with the leading online retailers, Affirm’s services cover more than half of the B2C E-Commerce market in the U.S.
The report also lists several regional BNPL providers that are successful in their respective markets. These include Tamara and Tabby in the Middle East, PayLater by Grab in Singapore, and by Flipkart in India, among others
