Drives 28% increase in transactions through LazyPay

The revolutionary deferred payment solution Dunzo Pay Later powered by LazyPay will offer the convenience of Buy Now Pay Later with a 0% interest rate (for a 15-day window) to over 2 million monthly active Users on Dunzo. As a strategic response to an upsurge in digital transaction failures, LazyPay and Dunzo also launched an industry-first solution to enhance consumer confidence impacted due to failed transactions.
