Pay-later services come with risks

04:04pm, Sunday, 28'th Nov 2021 The Manila Times
New York, United States: Krista Michels can''t get enough of the online services that allow American shoppers to pay for everything from Christmas presents to monthly bills without fees, known as "buy now, pay later." "I''m kind of addicted now," said the young mother in Washington state. She first turned to these solutions offered at check-out stores or online to rebuild her credit rating, which was too low to access a traditional credit card. Michels now uses them whenever possible, at the supermarket or to pay her internet bills. Startups like Affirm, AfterPay, Klarna and Sezzle usually allow consumers to pay for a purchase in four installments without fees or interest, like a typical credit card but without the associated paperwork and the complexities of fees and interest payments. They''ve also proven useful for consumers who do not have access to traditional credit, such as new immigrants to the United States. But consumer advocates say they carry the same risks as credit cards and shoppers must be careful not to saddle themselves with excessive debt and stay mindful of the services'' differing terms. "The concern is that people could get overextended if they''re not careful," said Chuck Bell, a program director at Consumer Reports.

Signs promote sales and layaway inside a Walmart Supercenter on Friday, Nov. 9, 2018, in Houston. A tech-driven option that occupies a sort-of middle ground between layaway and in-store financing is on the rise. | David J. Phillip, Associated Press There was a time when shopping at almost any U.S. retailer included the option to choose an item you were after and have it stashed away in some back room while you made incremental payments until the purchase price was covered and you could take it home. Those layaway plans mostly disappeared decades ago as credit cards arose as the go-to option for consumers to cover the cost of goods they couldnt quite afford in the moment. In-store financing also became a thing for many stores, particularly those offering high-ticket items like furniture and appliances. Now, a tech-driven option that occupies a sort of middle ground between layaway and in-store financing is on the rise and, like the purchase plans that have come before, it could cost you.
