One source close to the business said that NewDay's status as a regulated entity while offering a Buy Now, Pay Later product - branded Newpay - would be a key differentiator for public market investors during a period of intensifying scrutiny of the sector.NewDay was responsible for issuing nearly 20% of the UK's credit cards last year, and recently launched Bip, which it claims is the country's first cardless credit product.
