Afterpay has never turned a profit(实现盈利) in Australia. Last month, it spent millions to take over a Sydney Olympic Park arena(竞技场,场馆).
Afterpay在澳大利亚从未实现盈利。上个月,它斥资数百万澳元接管了悉尼奥林匹克公园的一个场馆。
The company says Afterpay Arena will be the first venue(场所,场地) where Australians can “buy now, pay later” for their event tickets, merchandise(商品,货品), dinner and even alcohol.
该公司表示,Afterpay Arena将成为澳大利亚首个可以让消费者“先买后付”购买活动门票、商品、晚餐甚至酒精饮料的场所。
The deal to take the naming rights(冠名权) from a traditional lender(放贷机构,贷方), Qudos Bank, is the latest evolution(演变,发展) for a sector(行业,部门) that has rapidly expanded over the past decade. But as growth slows and players leave the market, is the buy now, pay later (BNPL) boom(繁荣,热潮) over?
从传统银行Qudos Bank手中获得冠名权的这笔交易,是该行业过去十年快速扩张的最新演变。但随着增长放缓、参与者退出市场,“先买后付”(BNPL)的热潮是否已经结束?
