Payment tech firm bags deal with national sports fashion retailer

‘Buy now pay later’ payment service Laybuy has announced it has partnered with one of the UK’s biggest sports fashion retailers.

The company has teamed up with JD Sports to enable the brand’s customers to spread the cost of purchases over six equal weekly interest-free payments at the checkout.

Launched in May 2017, Laybuy works with retailers to allow customers to pay off purchases both in store and online.

The firm has already partnered with over 7,000 retail merchants globally, including WH Smith, TONI&GUY, Henmores and Psyche.

Gary Rohloff, MD and co-founder of Laybuy, commented: “We’re delighted to bring our innovative and flexible payment option to JD Sports in the UK.

“We know consumers want more choice at the checkout, and that weekly interest-free payments plans are important to them.

“It’s also great news for Laybuy users in the UK, who now have another exciting retailer to shop with.”
