About
Afterpay is a buy-now-pay-later (BNPL) payment service that lets shoppers split purchases into installment plans at checkout both online and in stores without interest if payments are made on time.
It offers "Pay in 4" plans generally over six weeks with automatic debit from a linked card, optional longer monthly plans for larger purchases, instant approval decisions without traditional credit checks, and app-based payment management with reminders.
Visa is a global payment network processor that enables banks, merchants, and cardholders to conduct debit, credit, and prepaid transactions across more than 200 countries and territories.
It operates a centralized and modular payments network called VisaNet, which supports card-not-present payments via RESTful APIs, token-based mobile and contactless payments, and provides merchants with data analytics and fraud-monitoring tools.
