This document discusses issues with buy now pay later (BNPL) marketing and its potential negative effects on customer spending behavior. It finds that BNPL is often presented too easily at checkout without providing adequate information about its nature as a credit product or the consequences of missed payments. Advertising further encourages unaffordable spending through discounts, influencer promotions, and portraying BNPL as simple without clarifying the risks. Young people are disproportionately exposed through targeted social media ads. The combination of easy access and misleading marketing could lead customers to take on debt they cannot afford to repay.
