BNPL credit scoring – could good borrowers be penalised?
South Africa should carefully assess how short-term instalment products are interpreted before Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) data shapes access to mainstream credit.

This could happen if BNPL data enters credit-scoring systems that were never designed to interpret this type of product fairly.
