Singapore’s shopping and rewards startup ShopBack is acquiring buy now pay later (BNPL) platform hoolah.

It received consent from the shareholders of hoolah for a 100 per cent acquisition of the company.

The purchase supports the “shared vision” of ShopBack and hoolah to “build the world’s most rewarding commerce enablement platform”.

Through the acquisition, hoolah will accelerate its growth via extending its BNPL offering to ShopBack’s over 8,000 merchants and 30 million shoppers across nine markets in the Asia-Pacific.

Meanwhile, ShopBack will further enhance its suite of shopping tools and rewards by offering shoppers a responsible, convenient, and flexible payment option at checkout.

Acquisition “unlocks value” for both startups

“We see significant synergies between ShopBack’s and hoolah’s product lines. Together as one, we unlock value by providing a broader platform of new capabilities and services for shoppers and merchants alike,” said Henry Chan, co-founder and CEO of ShopBack.

Henry said that shoppers can look forward to getting the best deals and rewards, and more flexible payment options, on a single platform.

Merchant partners can soon access a large pool of high-intent shoppers, and achieve higher conversions and basket sizes, he added.

“Combined with ShopBack’s position as the market-leading publisher and shopping companion across the Asia-Pacific, we will transform the shopping experience for shoppers, while providing a one-stop solution for demand generation and user engagement for merchants across the Asia-Pacific,” ShopBack said in the acquisition announcement.

There are also plans to charge up the BNPL sector with this deal.

“Our best-in-class technology and rich transaction data will enable us to further accelerate the development of the BNPL sector across the Asia-Pacific,” Henry said.

Just last month, ShopBack was said to have raised US$40 million in a round backed by Temasek, EDBI. ShopBack had said that it will use the investment to onboard new customers and merchants as well as develop new products for e-commerce and brick-and-mortar stores.
