“Buy now, pay later,” or BNPL, lets shoppers break their purchases into equal installment payments, often interest-free, which can allow shoppers to get their purchase upfront, instead of having to wait until it’s paid in full.
Usually, BNPL is offered in specific ecommerce websites like Target, Walmart. But now, Microsoft partners with 3rd party Zip (previously Quadpay) to offer a BNPL payment option at browser level. It means any purchase between $35 - $1,000 you make through Microsoft Edge can be split into 4 installments over 6 weeks.
On top of coverage, we also aim to 1) meet you where you are. 2) simplify the application process.
When you are in checkout page, you can find BNPL option right when you enter credit card number
For some shoppers, you can also find BNPL option right when you enter checkout page.
Applying BNPL could take time, you need to sign in with zip every single time. With BNPL in Edge, you can simply link your Microsoft account with your zip account with one click and then bypass sign in from Zip side. It can expedite the application process for you.
BNPL is currently available in Microsoft Edge Canary and Dev channels and will be available by default to all users in Microsoft Edge release 96. If you experience any issue while using this feature, please let us know through Microsoft Edge by pressing Shift+Alt+I on a Windows device or going to Settings and more … > Help and feedback > Send feedback.
You can read more on the FAQ support article. Please also join us here on the Microsoft Edge Insider forums or Twitter to discuss your experience or send us your feedback through the browser! We hope you enjoy this exciting new feature and look forward to hearing from you!

You can't uninstall edge. It's like a cancer entwined in every aspect of Windows. If you remove it, it only comes back with the next windows update. There was an app that allowed you to bypass Edge but Microsoft found a way to disable that. Bing is also so tied to Edge. The only way I could get my searches back to Google was to block Bing at the router level. Microsoft brags about how Edge is moving up in browser percentage but that's only because it automatically launches with Windows. If Edge is so good let it stand on it's own and let users decide if it is great. @ABU

How do I break a good browser? Put Bloatware in it and guarantee that over time your browser will no longer be used by ANYONE! I disabled the Edge now on Windows 11.... Hello Microsoft Edge until never again!

A browser should be just that, a browser that people use to consume the content they want. Any features added to the browser should be only to make the browsing experience better. This feature, will only be useful to a small sub-set of websites (shopping sites). The feature is also only supported in only 6 countries. And not many people will want to use this feature. So why is this being added to the product, when, the vast majority cannot or will not use this? If this was launched as an extension created by Microsoft I would understand it. As long as it was not added by default...
This feels like a waste of resources and frankly makes me doubt if the Edge browser is for me. I started using it when the RC release came out I believe, because it felt better than Chrome. This is starting to make Chrome look mighty fine again.
I already had to turn off a Pinterest "feature" and another shopping "feature" in the settings. When another is being added I think I'm pretty much over Edge. I want a browser that provides me the best browsing experience, not a browser that is loaded with affiliate links and kickback "features".

Having a popup that announces that it has listened in on my purchase and wants to help? That is the definition of SpyWare in my book!
I used Chrome for years until about a month ago when I switched to Edge. I like Edge for browsing just as much as Chrome and the complaints I reads regarding Chrome aren't really a problem for me. Chrome really isn't a bad browser. If we ignore the propaganda it's actually a very good browser.
p.s. that REWARDS button doesn't apply ro me and I can't remove it. If I were a rabid capitalist would I
be happier with Edge?
