The Paypers has rolled out the highly anticipated Buy Now, Pay Later Report 2025, featuring the latest insights into providers, trends, and key aspects for merchants and PSPs.

This edition of our Buy Now, Pay Later Report 2025 – Providers, Trends, and Key Aspects for Merchants and PSPs highlights one of the hottest topics of the payments industry, exploring how key advancements are shaping financial services worldwide. 

While Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) gained momentum during the COVID-19 pandemic, its adoption has continued to grow steadily. In 2025, the players activating in this space are delivering a more mature proposition globally, reflecting consumers’ increasing preference for paying in instalments rather than making full upfront payments. This upward trajectory is bound to continue, with projections for the global BNPL market size placing it at over USD 900 billion by the end of 2030.

In this context, the report aims to help readers navigate the complexities of the BNPL ecosystem. It features contributions from key stakeholders – including industry consultants, merchants, and service providers –, addressing pressing questions while providing valuable strategies for businesses seeking success worldwide. It is a perfect read for professionals looking to tackle the challenges of the global financial sector, providing relevant information for those seeking partnership opportunities in specific regions.
