easyShop.com, a new online marketplace from the company behind easyJet, has partnered with buy now, pay later provider, Clearpay.
The tie up comes as the number of UK shoppers planning to use BNPL for their Christmas shopping has risen over the last two years. According to the IPA’s 2026 Christmas Consumer Report, 14% of consumers intend to use it this year, up from 9% in 2024. Among Millennials, the figure is 22%.
Cas Paton, Founder and CEO at OnCommerce, the platform powering easyShop, says: “Now that we're into November, Christmas shopping is in full swing. Between now and the big day, people will be picking up gifts here and there, taking advantage of good deals when they see them and gradually work through their lists."
"Clearpay lets them pay the same way, splitting the cost into smaller, interest-free payments. That’s what makes our partnership so strong; it’s a straightforward payment option that fits how people shop.”
Rich Bayer, CEO at Clearpay, says: “Our latest research shows that more than nine in ten Brits say they feel more in control when they can choose how and when they pay."
"It's vital for retailers to provide flexibility at checkout so that shoppers can choose the payment option that suits their needs best, especially as we head into the festive season. We look forward to driving new customers to easyShop.”
Shoppers can choose Clearpay at checkout on eligible purchases across millions of products. The cost is then split into four interest free instalments, with the first paid at purchase and the remaining three every two weeks.
