for credit card i agree.
but not spaylater as if you understand more,
they are actually making seller to bear all spaylater related fees.

Yes and sellers are making noises. It came out in the news the other day. I am surprised cause 0% QR payment seems to work everywhere without fail - HeroMarket, 99 SM, KK Mart, TCR, Dominos, F2F. It even works at the toufufa seller in pasar malam, and the roadside stalls selling karipap and cakoi. I don't think sellers can choose to reject Spaylater since it works with all corporate QR.
Last time Spaylater charged 1.5% (upfront) from 2022 to Jan 2024, I used Amex-i (8% CB) still net around 6.5% savings, instead of using M2 Amex (5% weekend CB).
(Also Shopee was giving 300 coins per Spaylater RM40, 1x daily)
1.5% charge was waived since Jan 2024, then most of you joined in to use Spaylater (after Lazada stopped selling TNG PIN). I don't expect Sea Money to absorb the Amex charge for long and Seamoney may transfer BNPL to Ryx Bank.
