Sezzle Newsroom

Top Workplaces firms said creativity was key to improving communications — or keeping them strong — during the pandemic year.

When Sezzle and Target announced their three-year deal this month, it wasn’t just an ordinary tie-up. It was a milestone moment for the burgeoning business of installment payments.

Gridiron Football, the fastest-growing youth football league in the world, ignites payment innovation in youth sports by providing interest-free financing with Sezzle.

Recently named the best BNPL App for Students, Sezzle is determined to aid students in more ways than one.

The way Sezzle sees it, consumers, don’t need BNPL, but they prefer it. BNPL is, at its core, a more trusted and transparent offering to the customer and one they are increasingly seeking out and proving determinative in their shopping decisions

Recognized as a top 10 housewares/home furnishings retailer by Digital Commerce 360 in 2020, Lamps Plus selects Sezzle’s payment solution to engage a younger audience and ease financial burdens of new homeowners.

Over the past year, the cosmetics category was particularly impacted by the effects of COVID. Yet recent research from Sezzle, the highest-rated Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) option according to Trustpilot, suggests a major comeback.

The buy now, pay later (BNPL) space is rapidly becoming crowded with new entrants offering consumers a way to defer their payments, interest-free, over a few installments..

Announcement follows Sezzle’s significant investments in employee growth to support strategic initiatives in Enterprise sales and marketing, product innovation, and technology.

The move would raise more capital and give the Minneapolis financial technology firm a higher profile with retailers and consumers.

Sezzle added more than 7,300 active merchants in the quarter, marking the “largest quarterly increase in the company’s history,” according to an earnings release, which noted that there are now more than 34,000 active merchants on the platform.

Sezzle added 400,000 active consumers during the first quarter of 2021, bringing the total to more than 2.6 million active consumers. It was also reported that the top 10 percent of its clients, on average, now transact 49 times per year.

In line with a shared mission to benefit the community and create social good, Sezzle and Local Laundry have teamed up to create custom Canadian-made shirts to support small businesses.

Over the last year, the force of digitization has led to an emergence of behavioral preferences across generations — meaning that using BNPL to manage spend is becoming a behaviorally driven trend, more so than a demographic driven one. Every generation has an equal opportunity to learn and gain from these payment solutions.
