BNPL stands for Buy Now, Pay Later. It is a short-term credit facility that allows customers to purchase products or services instantly and pay for them later in easy installments or after a fixed period.

BNPL is popular for managing cash flow, budgeting purchases, and accessing interest-free credit for a short period.
