Japan Consumer Credit Industry Trends and Drivers

This market also diversifies at point of sale cashless omnichannel checkouts. Japan for example also supports point of sale financing which is subject to stricter conduct-based regulation for e-commerce and omnichannel checkouts with embedded credit cards, personal loans, retailer financing and BNPL. Card issuers and fintechs also compete in reward ecosystems, instant online onboarding, risk-based pricing, installment or pay-later and revolving credit products for both travel and electronics and everyday purchases. Also important to the underwriting landscape are the customs established by the legacy Money Lending Business law and practice including rate caps, debt-to-income restrictions and full participation of credit information bureaux (CIBs) as well as amendments to payment services and responsible lending legislation.

KYC checks, dispute resolution, and affordability checks are being used for BNPL providers making an installment sale, although BNPL providers have not yet become subject to regulation. BNPL providers are also subject to the Installment Sales Act and report to the bureau. BNPL providers are desired the more they are embedded within the merchants, provide guaranteed fraud prevention, allow omnichannel payments, integrate loyalty and BNPL programs with merchants, and offer virtual prepaid cards. Financial literacy campaigns, youth bank accounts with early access to digital currency, parents' preference for cashless options, and high expectations for data protection reduce negative sentiment towards credit-based BNPL. Issuers and fintechs can remain sustainable in Japan through the value proposition of price transparency and high levels of localized regulatory compliance and embedded financing among users, as well as the sole use case of ease of use, trust and quality.
