Lipa Later employs a digital-based credit scoring system that assigns credit limits to users on its app, allowing them to access goods at partnering merchants who include retail chain Carrefour, Apple, Tecno and Samsung.

It then earns interest on the credit just like a normal lender would.

Electronic goods and mobile phones constitute the most popular items sold through its platform.
