Does Afterpay report to credit bureaus in 2026?

Yes. As of 2026, Afterpay reports payment data to credit bureaus. On-time payments can help your score, but missed payments will hurt it. This is a change from earlier years when most BNPL providers did not report.

Can buy now pay later hurt my credit score?

Yes. Missed BNPL payments that are reported to bureaus or sent to collections will damage your credit. Multiple BNPL accounts can also increase your total debt load, which may affect utilization calculations in newer scoring models.

Do BNPL payments count as hard inquiries?

Most BNPL services use soft credit checks for approval, which do not affect your score. However, some longer-term BNPL plans (6 months or more) may require a hard inquiry. Check the terms before applying.

Should I use buy now pay later to build credit?

BNPL can supplement your credit building strategy but should not be your primary tool. A secured credit card or credit builder loan provides more consistent, reliable credit building across all three bureaus.
