Kept on record on purpose: licences get revoked and providers fail, and checking status before signing is part of due diligence. These are not live options - they are left out of the list and the counts above.

FAQ
What do embedded lending and BNPL providers offer?
Credit origination, scoring, servicing and BNPL checkout - either as a licensed lender or as software on your licence. Fintechnologica lists 32 verified lending providers (27 European-origin), with the lending type (BNPL, term, revolving, invoice) flagged.
Who carries the credit risk and the licence?
It varies: some providers lend from their own balance sheet under their licence; others are software where you (or a partner bank) carry risk. That single question drives compliance, capital and data-residency requirements - it is the first thing to clarify in an RFP.
