In Singapore, consumers are increasingly shifting to e-commerce platforms to complete their purchases in the midst of the global pandemic. This has resulted in the widespread adoption of BNPL services. With the trend expected to continue over the next four to eight quarters, the publisher expects more regional and global players to launch their BNPL product for consumers in Singapore from the short to medium-term perspective. This will subsequently support the growth of the overall BNPL industry in Singapore.
Singapore-based BNPL startups are raising funds to expand their business
The strong growth witnessed by the BNPL market over the last few quarters in Singapore has made the country ripe for the rise of BNPL startups, and venture capital firms are ready to back them up.
In November 2021, Singapore-based BNPL startup, Pace, announced that the firm had raised US$40 million from global investors. Notably, the series A funding round pulled in investors such as South Korea's Atinum Partners and Japan's Marubeni Ventures. With the backing of global investors, the firm is planning to use the capital for expanding its operations, technology, and business development.
In addition to extending its services in the four markets, the firm is also considering global expansion, including in markets such as Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan, over the next four to eight quarters.
Payment companies are launching commercial BNPL products in Singapore
In Singapore, there is a growing interest in commercial BNPL products. Installment products for small businesses are likely to attract payment companies to launch BNPL products in this segment.
In November 2021, Mastercard launched a commercial BNPL product in Singapore. The commercial BNPL card will allow small businesses with flexible financing options, allowing them to convert any purchase from 80 million merchants worldwide, wherever Mastercard is accepted, into periodic or monthly installments.
As small and medium enterprises are dealing with financial uncertainty, the new BNPL card is expected to drive Mastercard's expansion strategy in Singapore.
Conventional banks are launching BNPL product through long term partnership deals
The strong growth in the BNPL market across Asia has even caught the eye of traditional banking players. As a result, banks are entering into strategic alliances with BNPL platforms in Singapore to ride on the growing BNPL trend.
In October 2021, Standard Chartered Bank announced that the firm has entered into a 10-year strategic partnership with Singapore-based BNPL platform Atome. The strategic alliance with Atome has made Standard Chartered one of the first major banks to unveil a significant foray in the Asian BNPL sector. Notably, Standard Chartered invested an undisclosed amount in Atome, which provides BNPL services across all major Southeast Asian markets.
