Buy Now, Pay Later providers like Afterpay and Zip have been hit with new government regulations.

Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) services like Afterpay and Zip are now officially treated as credit products under new Australian regulations. From mandatory credit checks to tighter consumer protections, the reforms aim to curb rising debt and protect vulnerable users. While advocates welcome this long-overdue move, concerns remain about people juggling multiple BNPL accounts and falling into debt traps. With late fees historically making up a large share of revenue, the changes mark a major shift in how these services operate.

Brittany keeps looking at a new couch online, and every time she goes to buy it she sees an option to "Buy Now, Pay Later," which made her wonder...should she? Here's what she found:Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) loans have become one of the go-to ways to get access to credit fast. Companies like Klarna, Affirm, and Afterpay make buying big purchases relatively easy by allowing people to pay in installments over time. But some Americans have taken to using this method for everyday items like groceries, and when BNPL service providers like Klarna partners with DoorDash so customers can "eat now, pay later"... it feels like a debt trap waiting to happen. And that's just scratching the surface.This... is Money Troubles.And for the past few weeks we've been looking into the ways everyday people are trying to make ends meet... and what it says about how our culture views labor, basic needs, or even our favorite pastimes.In this final episode, NPR Life Kit's Andee Tagle and author Malcolm Harris join Brittany to get into why Buy Now, Pay Later has become so popular and how 'cheap credit' may be another lifestyle subsidy for a new generation.You can hear more of Andee's and Life Kit's reporting on Buy Now, Pay Later here.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

Buy Now, Pay Later services such as Klarna, Zilch, and Afterpay allow consumers to obtain goods immediately and pay over time without credit checks or regulatory oversight, increasing accessibility and risk. Cognitive overload at checkout and prominent BNPL options encourage impulsive spending, with nearly half of purchases in clothing and fashion and one in four users financing groceries. Forty-one percent of users reported late payments, and many manage multiple active loans, compounding debt risk. Experts recommend pausing before purchases and tracking loans to avoid financial pitfalls associated with these services.Learn more on this news by visiting us at: https://greyjournal.net/news/ Hosted on Acast.

“Take care, and be on your guard against all covetousness, for one's life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions.” — Luke 12:15In an age of instant gratification, getting what we want has never been easier, even if we can't afford it. But as “Buy Now, Pay Later” (BNPL) services become increasingly popular, they're quietly reshaping our relationship with money, debt, and even contentment. Let's explore how these programs work, why they're spiritually and financially dangerous, and how Scripture invites us into a better way.What Is Buy Now, Pay Later?Originally used for large purchases like furniture or electronics, BNPL services now allow consumers to split nearly any purchase into multiple payments—even cheeseburgers. DoorDash, for example, lets customers finance their food in four installments. The convenience may seem harmless, but it can mask deeper issues.Companies like Klarna, Afterpay, Affirm, Zip, Sezzle, and PayPal offer these options at checkout. According to Experian, more than 80% of U.S. shoppers have used BNPL. The ease is attractive, but the long-term impact can be devastating.BNPL makes it seem like you're not going into debt, but that's exactly what's happening. Small recurring payments across multiple platforms add up fast, leading to overdraft fees, financial stress, and, in many cases, high interest rates—some as high as 36% for missed or extended payments.A $60 DoorDash meal split into four $15 payments doesn't seem bad—until you do it for every meal. Or take a $3,000 couch bought with a BNPL plan: one missed payment, and that couch could ultimately cost $8,000 due to fees and interest.Scripture's Warnings About DebtThe Bible doesn't shy away from warning us about the dangers of debt. Proverbs 22:7 tells us, “The borrower is the slave of the lender.” Debt isn't just a financial issue—it can become an emotional and spiritual burden, dividing our attention and devotion.In Luke 12:15, Jesus reminds us that “life does not consist in the abundance of possessions.” Yet BNPL feeds the lie that more stuff equals more satisfaction. Instead of trusting God to provide, we try to manufacture comfort and control through impulsive spending.Why are we tempted to buy now and pay later? Often, it's not out of need, but out of insecurity, impatience, or discontentment. Paul models a better path in Philippians 4:11–13: “I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content...I can do all things through him who strengthens me.”True contentment doesn't come from a checkout screen—it comes from trusting the Lord to provide, even when the budget feels tight.A Better Way: Practical and Spiritual WisdomSo, how do we resist the pull of BNPL and grow in godly contentment?Practically:Build margin. Save up for purchases ahead of time.Budget for “wants.” Use a separate category or envelope system.Set spending limits. Use cash or debit card to help avoid overspending.Spiritually:Examine your heart. Ask: Am I trusting God, or just trying to feel better?Pursue contentment. Let God define your enough.Practice gratitude. Train your heart to see God's provision in what you already have.Freedom to Live GenerouslySaying no to unnecessary debt frees us to say yes to generosity. When we live with open hands and open hearts, we reflect the freedom we have in Christ—freedom from striving, fear, and scarcity. And that's far better than four easy payments.So next time you see a “Pay in 4” button, pause. Ask yourself: Do I really need this? Can I pay for it in full? And does this reflect trust in God, or just in a payment plan?Wise stewardship begins with contentment, and contentment begins with Christ.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:My husband and I are sending our son on a five-week mission trip to Scotland. We're debt-free and want our kids to stay that way. I'm hesitant to open a credit card, but what's the best, safest way to give him access to money while he's overseas?We recently sold our home at a profit, bought a new one, and are now debt-free. However, the new home needs repairs, and we still have a mortgage. Should we tithe on the profit from the home sale, or use those funds for the house needs?I'm a recently retired teacher with two annuities—one worth $19,000 and the other about $13,000. I've just opened an IRA and wonder if I should roll the annuities into it, or if there might be a better strategy.I've inherited a large amount of cash-valued property and need guidance on how to manage it wisely, especially to minimize potential tax liability.We paid off our home in October 2024. Do we need the deed and title to protect ourselves from fraud, or is it handled automatically?Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)Christian Credit CounselorsWisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on Money (Pre-Order)Look At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA) or Certified Christian Financial Counselor (CertCFC)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions most days at (800) 525-7000.

If there was one thing you think society should talk more about, what would it be?   “We need to talk more about money. Making it, investing it, losing it.”_________________My guest today has a story quite unlike anything I've ever heard before… actually, it seems unbelievable. Sadly, it's all true and as you'll hear, the ordeal that this beautiful unsuspecting single Mum has been through made such an impact on her life - she's now using that for good. Tracy Hall is an author, keynote speaker and senior marketing executive. In 2019, Tracy became known as Hamish McLaren's famous ‘last victim' thanks to her role in The Australian's hit podcast, ‘Who the Hell is Hamish?'  If you haven't listened to it, I'd highly recommend you do - it's riveting and to think that Tracy's situation instigated such an in-depth investigation to occur around the globe has you gob-smacked at the audacity of this guy. Over the last 25 years, Tracy has had extensive exposure to start-ups, large corporations and global tech brands including Virgin Mobile, eBay, GoDaddy and Afterpay. She frequently consults for smaller companies, volunteers as a teen mentor for The Raise Foundation and is a Board Director for the Men's Mental Health Charity - Mongrels Men.Today, Tracy is an advocate for financial wellness, writing and speaking publicly about intimate fraud, scams, financial empowerment, victim mindsets, resilience, rebuilding and our need to rethink how we trust. Her book, The Last Victim is a riveting read and eye-opener to how the world of fraud, scams, and being taken advantage of can happen to any one of us. This is an incredible story that provides such a different take on this ever-growing topic. Order Tracy's book here: The Last VictimFor more information about Tracy, check out these places;-Website: Tracy Hall LinkedIn: Tracy HallInstagram: Tracy Hall___________Head to michellejcox.com for more information about the ONE QUESTION podcast, your host or today's guestsConnect with Michelle on Linkedin here:- @MichelleJCoxConnect with Michelle on Instagram here:- @michellejcoxConnect with Michelle on Facebook here - @michellejcoxAND, if you have a burning topic you'd love people to talk more about, or know someone who'd be great to come on the One Question podcast, please get in touch;- hello@michellejcox.com

Since May 2022 we've seen 13 rate rises in Australia. On the 6th of August we'll hear from the Reserve Bank again and markets are predicting a 14th rate rise. We take a look at what is driving inflation and ask: will a 14th rate rise change anything? We then look at the rise of pre-IPO ETFs. They're having a moment (at least on Bryce's Instagram) but when we go under the hood we quickly realise they're not all they're cracked up to be. We'll unpack why in this episode. Finally, we take a look at a worrying trend that has popped up on TikTok - applying Astrology and Numerology to investing. Naturally we had to see if it could predict the next Afterpay. Spoiler alert: it couldn't.

It's vitually impossible nowadays to buy something online with being offered to split up your payment over multiple installments over a 2-3 month period. These companies like Afterpay, Affirm, and Klarna seem to be taking the online shopping world by storm and offer an enticing no fee and no interest option to get what you want the moment you want it without having to wait. But even though these services can be enticing to many and useful in some situations, that doesn't mean they come with their fair share of pitfalls and dangers. In this week's episode of The Money Love Podcast we're diving deep into the topic of buy-now-pay-later services. I'm sharing scenarios where I think it makes sense to use them, when you shouldn't use them, factors to consider that may make you rethink using them moving forward, and three questions to ask yourself the next time you're tempted to split a purchase over time.
