Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL)

LinkUp job listing data is collected daily and directly from company websites, and can be analyzed at the company level to develop timely analytical tools, compare competitor hiring trends, or anticipate changes in markets of interest.

For example, the rise of retail buy now, pay later (BNPL) credit models has allowed consumers to stretch payments for an item over a few weeks or months, but some BNPL companies have struggled to adapt these credit models as consumer financial habits shift.

Since LinkUp data can provide granular snapshots of a company’s hiring practices, we can zoom in on particular companies relevant to the BNPL space to determine the possible impact of changes in both investor and consumer behavior, or track changes in labor demand across time.
