The pandemic has been a shifting phase for the eCommerce industry. Research shows that online shopping took a big leap forward, and the eCommerce industry alone generated $374B in the United States in 2020. But, the pandemic also brought in a new buyer behavior, i.e., flexible buying options.
During the pandemic, people realized that spending a lot of money at once could be challenging. Especially when following a set budget, paying a lump sum amount without prior preparation can be difficult. This is why Sezzle has become so popular. With the help of Sezzle, users can purchase anything with the 'Buy Now Pay Later' facility.
While banks levy high interest rates, Sezzle does not charge any interest on the installments. The user will be asked to make a downpayment, after which they will be given the option of making three installments in six weeks.
Here is a list of the top seven companies in Canada using Sezzle.
