SaaS Provider Angelpaw Debuts BNPL Service for Pet Aftercare

Cloud SaaS software company Angelpaw, which works with pet crematoriums, aquamation centers, veterinarians and pet parents, has rolled out a BNPL service, a press release says.

The Angelpaw BNPL feature will let pet crematories and aquamation centers take multiple installment payments for pet aftercare. Pet parents will be able to split the costs of a purchase over several interest-free installments over 60 days.

The plan, once completed, will see Angelpaw instantly managing the scheduling, validation and transfers, with the pet service provider getting the funds without risk.

“With the explosion in popularity of Buy Now, Pay Later, we felt it’s our responsibility to offer the benefits of BNPL to Pet Aftercare”, says James Byler, Founder and CEO. “Our pet crematory and aquamation partners achieve higher conversion rates and higher transaction sizes, while pet parents have an interest-free payment option for unforeseen and unplanned circumstances. It’s a win-win for everyone!”
