This week, our CEO, Richard Bayer, welcomed retail leaders to our 'Clearpay Conversations' event with special guest, supermodel and entrepreneurial businesswoman, Elle Macpherson. The evening featured a fireside chat between Rich and Elle, where they discussed Elle's career, her motivations and her leadership style. Here are a few takeaways that stayed with us: 💫 Follow what moves you. Saying “yes” to what inspires you, even when uncertain, can lead to unexpected opportunities. 💫 Empowerment drives innovation. Financial freedom built the foundation for Elle’s success and ventures like WelleCo. 💫 Wellness is holistic. True vitality comes from balance, energy, and gratitude, from the inside out. 💫 Redefine success. “Inner peace is the new success. Health is the new wealth. Wellness is the new beautiful. Kindness is the new cool.” We left inspired to lead with integrity and purpose, both in business and in life. A huge thank you to Elle and to everyone who joined us for the evening. 💚 Let’s keep the conversation going, discover how Clearpay helps brands connect with customers who value flexibility, confidence, and wellbeing. #ClearpayConversations #Wellness #Authenticity #Innovation #BrandCommunity

✨ We recently welcomed merchant partners and prospects to our office to discuss Clearpay's journey on the road to BNPL regulation. Speakers included CEO Richard Bayer, Chief Compliance Officer Adrienne Lamond, and Head of UK Public Policy Iana Vidal, who shared valuable insights on what’s ahead. Here's what our partners took away from the session: ✅ No immediate changes – no action, no product changes, no cost impact today ✅ We're prepared and proven, and we're backed by Block – regulation is already live in NZ & AU where we operate, with evidence-led affordability built in ✅ Regulatory tailwinds – stronger consumer protections will drive deeper trust and wider adoption ✅ Customer-first approach – guided by Consumer Duty, focusing on transparency, responsible lending and support ✅ Merchant clarity – minimal disruption expected, with proportionate oversight and ongoing guidance from us ✅ Next steps – steady evolution, not revolution. We’ll keep our merchant partners updated, supported, and ready for changes ahead It was fantastic to connect, share our progress, and reaffirm that Clearpay is not just ready for regulation – we’re ahead of it. #Clearpay #BNPL #Regulation #ResponsibleFinance #CustomerExperience
