In this section, we will indicate several reasons why BNPL is popular in the retail and aesthetic industries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8211; In early 2020, data shows the main reason why clients use BNPL is because of its <a href=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/uk\/buy-now-pay-later\/buy-now-pay-later-statistics#:~:text=Why%20do%20shoppers%20use%20buy,ease%20and%20convenience%20(44%25).\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">convenience<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8211; BNPL is also popular because consumers use BNPL services to avoid high credit<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bigcommerce.com\/articles\/ecommerce\/buy-now-pay-later-ecommerce\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> card fees and interest.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8211; A study done on 533 BNPL users suggests that utilising this feature has made high-cost treatments <a href=\"https:\/\/www.researchgate.net\/publication\/369118391_Understanding_the_psychological_determinants_of_buy-now-pay-later_BNPL_in_the_UK\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">attainable and more manageable<\/a> for repayments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8211; Another related study by the Consumer Council found that one key reason consumers use BNPL is due to the recent increase in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.consumercouncil.org.uk\/research\/buy-now-pay-later-summary-report\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">cost of living<\/a>. Further examination of the research shows that the impacts of BNPL have mostly been positive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"630\" src=\"https:\/\/facesconsent.com\/blog\/\/wp-content\/uploads\/Blog-Posts-Content-Images-17-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6309\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/facesconsent.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Blog-Posts-Content-Images-17-1.png 1200w, https:\/\/facesconsent.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Blog-Posts-Content-Images-17-1-768x403.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In this digital age, BNPL is a pivotal feature that encourages clients to book a treatment.
