SUMMARY
As of June 2025, BNPL regulation in the USA has seen major developments. FICO announced plans to integrate BNPL data into credit scores by fall 2025. The CFPB's May 2024 rule extending credit card protections to BNPL services took effect June 2024, requiring Truth in Lending Act compliance. The Financial Technology Association challenged this rule in federal court, arguing regulatory overreach. Consumer debt concerns are rising, with Klarna reporting 17% increase in credit losses ($136 million) in Q1 2025, highlighting growing repayment struggles among consumers.

SUMMARY
BNPL regulation in the USA is undergoing significant changes in 2025. The CFPB's 2024 interpretive rule classified some BNPL products as credit cards under TILA, but the agency now plans to revoke this rule following industry pushback and legal challenges from the Financial Technology Association. While federal enforcement is being scaled back, state-level regulation is advancing with New York introducing licensing requirements and California taking enforcement actions. New federal licensing requirements are expected to take effect in June 2025, requiring BNPL providers to follow responsible lending practices similar to traditional credit providers.
