Payflex recognised globally at the Global Payments Innovation Awards 2023
Cape Town - Payflex, South Africa's first and leading BNPL (Buy-Now-Pay-Later) provider, has been honoured at the Global Payments Innovation Awards by being awarded the Best eCommerce Payment Initiative, an award that showcases its innovation in the fast-changing world of fintech.
The Global Payments Innovation Awards showcases cutting-edge payment service providers and payment technologies that are transforming the sector.
Tracey-Lee Zurcher, Head of Marketing at Payflex, says, “Our solutions transcend traditional payment methods, and we have our consumers in mind, giving them convenience and financial flexibility. This award is a testament to our commitment to providing innovative solutions that truly address the evolving needs of consumers and businesses.”
In July 2023, Payflex was acquired by FeverTree Finance, a privately held financial services firm that provides retail credit solutions and private equity funding to businesses in South Africa. This acquisition provides impetus and growth opportunities for the Payflex business and the BNPL category in South Africa.
“As the largest BNPL provider in South Africa, we are excited about the future prospects of Payflex and welcome it’s dynamic team to the FeverTree Finance family,” said Bruce McIntosh, CEO of Payflex.
The Payflex solution is a game-changer in regions where traditional consumer credit options are limited. The youth-centric population and changing attitudes towards credit present an exciting opportunity for BNPL to reshape the financial landscape.
