Through Versatile Credit’s platform, Bread Pay’s buy now, pay later installment products will now be available to participating Versatile Credit merchants and their customers.
For the first time, these customers will now have access to BNPL financing at the point of sale - both online and in-store - giving them more financial choice and flexibility at checkout. Customers can pre-qualify for Bread Pay in a matter of seconds, immediately apply the financing to their purchase, and pay for their purchase in equal installments over time.
Our partnership with Versatile allows us to increase distribution of our BNPL products in-store, while expanding opportunities in priority markets like elective medical and home improvement. Together we’re providing consumers greater options with the access to modern, innovative financing at checkout that they demand.
Val Greer, EVP and Chief Commercial Officer, Bread Financial
