The growing competition between buy now pay later providers in the European market is reshaping the industry. In 2022, BNPL schemes became a household name amid the growing adoption, which has grown significantly in H2 2022 due to the surging cost of living and rising inflation. While Klarna has seen its valuation drop significantly, it has continued to maintain a strong foothold in the European BNPL industry.
Neo-banks, including Monzo and Revolut, has also forayed into the growing competitive landscape in Europe. With so signs of a market slowdown across Europe, the surging popularity of BNPL schemes is expected to keep shaping the digital payment ecosystem from the short to medium-term perspective.

Europe-based BNPL startups are raising funding rounds to further expand and accelerate their growth
Despite the growing scrutiny of the BNPL business model in Europe, the payment method has continued to experience high adoption among consumers. This has resulted in rapid growth for fintech firms. To keep up their growth momentum and to further expand their presence in the region, Europe-based providers are raising funding rounds. For instance,
In December 2022, Bumper, a United Kingdom-based BNPL startup for vehicle repairs, announced that the firm had raised £26.1 in an extended Series A round. The investment round saw participation from ITOCHU, JLR Investment, and Revo Capital, among others. As the cost of living rises in Europe, more and more vehicle owners have turned to BNPL schemes for funding the repair of their cars. The firm had recorded strong growth in the United Kingdom and is on a similar growth trajectory in Ireland, Spain, and Germany.
From the short to medium-term perspective, the automotive-focused BNPL startup is planning to further expand its operations in more European countries, as a growing number of consumers seek flexible payment options for their vehicle repair services.
B2B BNPL is gaining strong traction across Europe
The macroeconomic environment has dampened the growth of various businesses across industry verticals. Moreover, the rise in interest rates means that access to capital has become even costlier for small and medium-sized businesses in Europe.

All of these firms have also scored millions of dollars in venture capital and private equity funding in 2022, and the publisher expects the trend to further continue in 2023.
As central bank accounts hike interest rates, access to capital through traditional is expected to become costlier for small and medium-sized businesses. This will keep driving SMEs toward B2B BNPL providers, thereby supporting the growth of the industry from the short to medium-term perspective in Europe.
European retailers are banking on BNPL payment option to drive customer engagement and sales
The prominence of BNPL schemes has grown significantly over the last two years. Businesses are seeing the payment method as a potential way to drive customer engagement, thereby resulting in increased revenue and sales for the firm.
