Aplazo
Mexican BNPL platform unlocking installment payments for underbanked shoppers
About Aplazo
Aplazo is a Mexican buy-now-pay-later (BNPL) and commerce fintech that enables online and in-store merchants to offer installment payments to consumers who often lack credit cards. Shoppers split purchases into fixed payments while merchants receive settlement designed for Mexico’s largely underbanked retail market. The company uses risk models, including AI-assisted credit decisioning, to manage delinquency as it scales coverage across e-commerce and physical retail. Aplazo has raised significant venture funding, including a Series B led by QED Investors as part of a larger 2024 financing package, to expand BNPL adoption and become a preferred payment method for everyday purchases in Mexico.
