in3 a Dutch 'Buy-Now-Pay-Later' (BNPL) fintech has announced a $85.3m Series B funding round from the British VC Force over Mass, US Waterfall Asset Management LLC and Dutch investor Finch Capital.
Launched in 2018, in3 gives consumers the option to pay in 3 instalments without interest or other hidden costs. Current customers include Kwik Fit, EP, La Souris, Matt sleeps, Dekbed-Discounter among others.
Hans Langenhuizen, CEO of in3 commented: “We’re thrilled to have secured this funding round. It is testament to the scale and growth of our proposition in the BNPL community. We will be expanding further in the Netherlands through the partnership with Mollie and plan to launch in Germany soon. Over the past year, we have invested in our tech stack and team to prepare for the next phase of the business. The new funds will help us process transactions on a larger scale, both online and in the physical stores. We’re grateful to all our investors as we enter our growth phase.”
This follows their $11.1m series A round in March 2022 and takes the total funding raised to $96.4m
in3 has also confirmed a nationwide partnership with Mollie, one of the largest providers of online payment services in the Netherlands to online and physical stores. in3 will now be offered to millions of consumers via almost every payment service provider in the Netherlands. Mollie supports more than 130,000 merchants in selling and growing their business online with a simple and clear payment API and a checkout that is optimised for conversion.
"Consumers don't always have the financial means to buy what they need at that moment. By giving more flexibility with BNPL, the conversion and average order value can be increased," said Ken Serdons, Chief Commercial Officer of Mollie. "We are excited to partner with in3 to offer an alternative, interest-free BNPL payment method, where payment to our merchants is guaranteed. In addition, in3 also attaches great importance to the importance of localisation by offering iDEAL, which is an important core value of Mollie. We look forward to exploring similar opportunities in Germany and other European countries together with in3."
