Financial technology companies Afterpay and Zip have flourished in 2020 despite the financial hit taken by many businesses due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Both companies have seen their share prices soar with Afterpay CEO Anthony Eisen describing the shift online as “consistent” and “accelerated”.

Zip Co-founder Peter Gray said the business model for his company had proven itself effective in times of economic stability and uncertainty. However, Small Businesses Ombudsman Kate Carnell said she was concerned the move to online shopping and using Zip and Afterpay could promote a mentality of spending beyond your means.
