In this study, the phenomenon of Buy Now Pay Later, which is a product of fintech innovation and also involves lending agreements, will be reviewed from the perspective of Sharia Business Law norms and studies.The results of the research show that the practice of online lending with the Buy Now Pay Later system can have complex implications in Sharia business law. Although this financial instrument provides convenient financial access for consumers, on the other hand, it can pose risks of riba (interest) and gharar (uncertainty) that are contrary to Sharia principles. Online financial service providers that impose high fees and interest are clearly against Islamic legal principles, particularly Sharia economic law, where justice and equality are considered principles that must be upheld.
