This report provides a detailed data-centric analysis of the Buy Now Pay Later (BNPL) industry, covering market opportunities and risks across a range of retail categories. With over 75 KPIs at the country level, this report provides a comprehensive understanding of BNPL market dynamics, market size and forecast, and market share statistics.

The rising consumption and demand for credit are expected to drive the growth of the buy now pay later industry across Asia Pacific over the medium term. Firms are entering into strategic partnerships to launch new products to cater to the growing demand for BNPL products in Asia Pacific. In 2024, the publisher expects startups to raise funding from venture capital and private equity firms to scale their product offerings.

The thriving e-commerce sector, in markets like India and Southeast Asia, will also support the growth trajectory of the buy now pay later industry over the medium term. In Asia Pacific, India is expected to lead the regional market growth amid rising adoption of the payment solution. Overall, the publisher maintains a positive growth outlook for the market over the next three to four years.

Visa and Standard Chartered Bank entered into a partnership to bring BNPL to markets across Asia Pacific

Amid the growth demand for credit products like buy now pay later, firms are entering into strategic collaborations to enter new markets, targeting higher gross merchandise value over the next three to four years.

Visa, in December 2023, entered into a partnership with Standard Chartered Bank to accelerate the delivery of BNPL solutions to the bank’s Visa credit cardholders across the Asia Pacific region. The partnership will enable targeted consumers to make use of Visa’s installment payment solution at participating stores and e-commerce merchants. Initially, the collaboration will enable credit cardholders in Malaysia and Singapore to make use of the payment service. Going forward, the firms are planning to launch in other markets across the Asia Pacific. The partnership comes at a time when awareness about BNPL solutions is growing rapidly in Asia Pacific.

BNPL startups are raising funding rounds to ramp up technology and drive adoption in India

The credit demand is growing at a rapid rate among consumers in India. The higher inflation and decline in disposable income are driving the credit demand. Consequently, to reach more consumers, BNPL firms are raising funding rounds from venture capital and private equity firms.

SalarySe, the BNPL-focused financial services app, announced that the firm had raised US$5.25 million in a funding round in January 2024. The capital round was led by Surge Ventures and included participation from other investors like Pravega Ventures. The firm is planning to use the capital for ramping up its technology, while also targeting higher adoption of its product in the Indian market.

Going forward, SalarySe is also aiming to launch a credit-on-UPI system for salaried employees. Consequently, the firm is entering into strategic collaborations with banking institutions, HR SaaS platforms, and employers. Notably, the National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI), launched the credit line on UPI facility in 2023 in India.

In 2024, the publisher expects more venture capital and private equity funding to enter the BNPL sector in India. This will support innovation and a competitive landscape in the BNPL market over the next three to four years.

Rising consumption and credit demand supporting BNPL industry growth across Southeast Asia

The soaring smartphone and internet usage, coupled with the thriving e-commerce market and a higher percentage of the unbanked population, are offering a fertile ground for the growth of the buy now pay later market in Southeast Asia. While Indonesia is leading the growth of the market, other countries such as Malaysia and the Philippines are also experiencing strong adoption of buy now pay later schemes. This has resulted in new product launches and strategic partnerships in the sector.

Atome Financial, for instance, revealed that it is renewing a US$100 million debt facility in partnership with HSBC Singapore. This move is aimed at growing its presence in the Philippine market. The collaboration not only supports Atome’s expansion efforts but also takes advantage of HSBC Singapore’s worldwide network, regional presence, and banking knowledge to enhance Atome’s influence and outreach in the Philippine market.

Fundiin, in November 2023, entered into a strategic partnership with Pharmacity in Vietnam. Fundiin’s presence at Pharmacity, one of the leading retail pharmacy chains having approximately 1,000 stores across the country, will enable the BNPL firm to tap into more customers. This will also drive the firm’s gross merchandise value and volume for the BNPL provider. In Vietnam, Fundiin is offering BNPL services across different industry verticals including cinema, fashion, cosmetics, and travel among many others.

These strategic collaborations in the sector are expected to drive the competitive landscape while supporting the growth of the buy now pay later market across Southeast Asia over the medium term. The BNPL payment industry in Asia Pacific has recorded strong growth over the last four quarters, supported by increased e-commerce penetration.

By

The partnership brings Egnyte’s secure content platform and Mili’s AI agents together, so advice firms can deliver more comprehensive, personalized advice at scale.

SUNNYVALE, Calif., Oct. 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Mili, an AI platform for wealth management firms, and Egnyte, a leader in secure content collaboration, intelligence, and governance, today announced a partnership that brings Mili’s AI agents to client documents in Egnyte. Advisors work from a file or a whole client folder alongside data from the firm’s CRM, portfolio and planning systems, under each advisor’s Egnyte permissions.

Kitces Research finds that reviewing client documents is the most common way advisors use AI. Its productivity research puts a new financial plan at 15 to 40 hours of team time.

Advisors use Mili’s agents to model the tax cost of moving a client’s accounts into the firm’s strategy, weigh a rebalance against unrealized gains, summarize a bonus agreement and build a financial snapshot from a statement. The agents link answers to their sources and flag what an analysis may still need.

David Ringler, Managing Director at Onyx Bridge Wealth Group ($1.6B+ AUM), said, “Egnyte and Mili are two valuable pieces of technology in our stack, and bringing them together has changed how our practice runs. Mili’s meeting prep and planning agents have become significantly better with Egnyte data behind them.”

Chirag Gandhi, Co-Founder and CEO of Mili, said, “How many clients an advice firm can serve well has long been capped. It is set by the work of understanding each client’s financial life. Agentic AI is changing that, helping advice firms uplift client capacity by accelerating the delivery of high-quality advice.”

Kyle Blair, Director of Global Financial Services at Egnyte, said, “Egnyte helps financial services firms accelerate critical business operations by turning document-heavy tasks into faster, connected, and revenue-generating workflows. Our partnership enables Mili’s AI agents to securely access and work on customer data within Egnyte for better business outcomes.”

The integration is live for mutual customers. Building on Mili’s work with hundreds of advice firms, it aims to put a firm’s full client knowledge into its advice.

About Egnyte

Egnyte is a leader in secure content collaboration, intelligence, and governance, trusted by more than 23,000 customers to increase employee productivity, drive operational efficiencies, and secure mission-critical content. Egnyte’s AI-powered platform empowers organizations to create, share, and protect their information at scale, with specialized solutions designed to meet the unique needs of organizations in architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC), financial services, life sciences, and other industries. For more information, visit www.egnyte.com.
