Opy has turned to Cross River Bank (CRB) to enhance BNPL access to US consumers.
The tie-up allows the firm to provide closed-end consumer loans up to $20,000 with terms of up to 24 months.
Opy CEO and Openpay global chief strategy officer Brian Shniderman said: “Opy delivers new and improved ways for consumers to make purchases, especially when faced with unexpected expenses, such as emergency dental surgery, a sudden auto repair, or medical care for a beloved pet.
“Our flat fee is as little as one-third the cost of traditional consumer loans for the same purchases and provides marketplace expansion for merchants who accept Opy.”
