Which companies have overcome these shortcomings and are making BNPL or bill credit work as a business?

B2C BNPL is possible too, Simpl is a fantastic example.

But yes there are tons of failures too.

For now, I will stick to B2B BNPL business:

💡 Idea 1:

Tie-up with service providers like AWS, ZolvIt, Microsoft Azure. Enable businesses with few years in existence and no credit default history to avail your BNPL service.

Once payment starts going through you, enable loan facility for them. BharatPe aced this through their UPI.

💡 Idea 2:

Tie-up with ad platforms like LinkedIn, Meta, Google, etc.

After a business has availed say 1 Cr. of BNPL through you, give them attractive ad credit, better than what each of these platform actually offers.

There are more such ways to make BNPL work in B2B segment.

I am certain your Growth folks will be able to help you out more in this aspect.

Anti Zepto model by partnering with Kiranas

I am currently building Kirana.Pro an anti Zepto model where we don’t have any dark stores. Instead we partner with nearby Kirana stores. What do you think of this idea? Can it win like how Namma Yatri won against Ola and Uber?

Don't believe the numbers just as is

I was leading a team which was involved in launching BNPL for a commodity product( flight tickets/train tickets), and the API we were using to cancel the tickets at the last moment from the 3rd party providers was flaky. It was suppose...

Cred

Cred is truly a topic of surprise for me. Yes, I understand it has created a community of top spenders/credit worthy people in India. I also understand that they can use the information on such people for creating value for themselves.
