Does BNPL affect my ability to borrow?

Asked by Banky team 2 months ago
Banky team Reviewed editorial answer

BNPL services are a financial obligation and, therefore, may affect your ability to obtain a loan if they are registered with or visible to the lender, or included in your liability calculations.

Key points

  • Even if the monthly payment is small, multiple plans can increase your monthly burden.

  • Before applying for a new loan, combine all your current BNPL payments and calculate them along with your credit cards and other loans, rather than considering each service separately.
