What is Sofinco?

Sofinco is a buy-now-pay-later service that lets customers split payments into instalments — while you get paid in full upfront.

Sofinco is a buy-now-pay-later (BNPL) provider available in France. Your customer chooses Sofinco at checkout, gets approved in seconds, and selects an instalment plan. French customers complete payment in 3 or 4 times to boost conversion and increase average spending.

With PayRequest, you can offer Sofinco on every payment link. Send the link via WhatsApp, email, social or a QR code; when the customer opens it Sofinco appears as a payment option alongside cards, iDEAL and digital wallets. Sofinco pays you the full amount immediately and collects from the customer over their chosen instalment plan.

Offering Sofinco typically lifts average order value 30–60% and reduces cart abandonment for higher-ticket purchases. PayRequest charges 0% — only the standard Sofinco processing fee applies.
