FICO has announced the rollout of new credit scoring models that will include 'Buy Now, Pay Later' (BNPL) usage, affecting millions of Americans. Scheduled for release this fall, the updated Score 10 and Score 10 T models will assess BNPL repayment behaviors, potentially aiding some borrowers in obtaining better loan terms. However, those who miss payments may see negative impacts on their credit scores. This change comes amid concerns about overspending, especially among younger users with limited credit histories.
