Tuesday, August 3, 2021 5:01 pm

Apple and Affirm Holdings’s PayBright are teaming up to launch a “Buy Now, Pay Later” program for Apple device purchases in Canada.

Bloomberg News:

The companies plan to debut the initiative this month at Apple’s online and physical retail stores in Canada, according to a message sent to Apple retail employees in the region, which was obtained by Bloomberg News. The service will let iPhone, Mac, and iPad buyers in Canada pay for purchases over 12 or 24 months instead of in-full at the time of the transaction. Apple told staff it will offer the program interest-free for a limited time after the launch.

This will become Apple’s first installment program in Canada in several years. Apple has offered a buy now, pay later system for Apple purchases via its Apple Card credit card with Goldman Sachs Group Inc. in the U.S. since last year…

“Some customers visiting Apple want to buy now and pay later,” Apple told staff in Canada. “Now, they have a new option that lets them pay over time for their favorite Apple products.” The company also told staff the program would roll out on Aug. 11.

MacDailyNews Take: Sounds like “Apple Pay Later” which is said to be upcoming.
