Key Takeaways

  1. Apple will end its Pay Later service, integrating third-party options in iOS 18.
  2. New installment loans via Apple Pay will be available globally.
  3. Existing Pay Later loans remain manageable through the Wallet app.

What Happened?

Apple announced it will shut down its Pay Later program, which allowed users to make purchases up to $1,000 on an installment plan. After just one year, Apple decided to stop offering new loans via this service. Instead, the company will integrate third-party financial services from Affirm Holdings Inc. and Citigroup Inc. into the upcoming iOS 18 software.

This shift means users will soon access installment loans through various credit and debit card providers when using Apple Pay.

Why It Matters?

Apple’s decision to discontinue its in-house Pay Later service is significant for several reasons. First, it marks a retreat from Apple’s ambitions to offer more financial services directly. By integrating third-party services, Apple aims to provide more flexible and widespread payment options.

This move could potentially boost user engagement with Apple Pay by making it more versatile and appealing globally. Furthermore, companies like Affirm and Citigroup stand to benefit from increased exposure and usage through Apple’s extensive user base.

What’s Next?

Investors should monitor how Apple’s new global installment loan offerings perform once iOS 18 rolls out. The integration of third-party services could lead to partnerships that enhance Apple’s ecosystem. Additionally, existing users with Pay Later loans will continue to manage them within the Wallet app, ensuring a seamless transition.

The broader availability of flexible payment options may drive higher transaction volumes through Apple Pay, potentially increasing Apple’s revenue from its financial services segment. Keep an eye on how this strategy impacts Apple’s competitiveness against other financial technology platforms and services.
