NAB said the new offering has no late fees, no interest and no account fees.
NAB Now Pay Later can be used anywhere Visa card is accepted and customers can add it to their digital wallets for online and in person payments, it added.
NAB is the second leading Australian bank to enter BNPL space after Commonwealth Bank of Australia launched StepPay in August 2021.
NAB Group executive personal banking Rachel Slade said: “Hundreds of thousands of NAB customers are using instalment payment services so we have created NAB Now Pay Later to make this option simple and digital for them.
