Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) services are rapidly gaining trust and popularity among consumers in the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region, according to a recent publication.

In Australia, the BNPL market experienced substantial growth, with BNPL sales increasing from a single-digit to a double-digit value in EUR billion from 2021 to 2022. This growth reflects the rising preference for BNPL services among Australian consumers.

Among APAC countries, China is expected to experience the most significant increase in BNPL market size by 2025.
