About this listen

Ever clicked 'Pay in 4'? You've unknowingly activated a hidden financial system. This episode of Interconnected goes behind the pastel banners of Buy-Now-Pay-Later services like Afterpay, Klarna, and Affirm to reveal a multi-billion dollar machine that converts your late-night shopping into securitized debt.

Discover how 'interest-free' convenience creates invisible risk for you, the economy, and the regulators who are "flying blind." You'll never see that checkout button the same way again.
