Apple has discontinued its Apple Pay Later installment payment service just over a year after its launch, aiming to shift the responsibility to banks. The move comes as Apple faced increasing competition in the buy now, pay later sector, notably from Klarna.

Customers are now anticipated to see the introduction of installment payment options globally by the year's end, as Apple transitions away from its prior payment model.
