Product: Sunbit, a buy now, pay later (BNPL) technology, has been selected by Acquios Alliance as its preferred BNPL provider for its growing membership of independent optometry practices.
Top Line: Sunbit’s BNPL technology is leveraged to approve approximately 90 percent of patients who apply. Well-qualified applicants are offered a three-month, true no-interest plan. Sunbit was selected by Acquios Alliance because of its lightning-fast, inclusive application process, transparent and fair terms, and the quality of training and support it offers to participating independent optometry practices, according to a recent announcement.
Close Up: Acquios Alliance has exceeded 330 participating independent optometry locations as it continues to grow. The alliance is committed to empowering the independence of private practices by partnering with top vendors to connect ECP members with the products and services they need.
“When I heard about Sunbit, I assumed it was a duplicate of another financing product many have in their practices,” said Rick Guinotte, chief executive officer and founder of Acquios Alliance. “After taking time to learn more, I was amazed at the ease and efficiency at which their system works for the patient and the practice. It is for this reason I was excited to extend an invitation to Sunbit to join the Acquios Alliance to help private practices be successful helping patients afford the quality care and services necessary to improve patients’ quality of life.”
Vital Stats: Sunbit offers optical consumers the ability to pay for purchases over time, so they can get the eyewear they need when they need it. Importantly, the company offers hands-on training and support to independent optometry practices, enabling them to confidently offer BNPL to all patients, improving outcomes for their patients, and their practice.
“Buy Now, Pay Later has quickly become the financing tool of choice for consumers,” said Robert Nunziato, head of inside sales and sales operations for Sunbit. “Acquios Alliance is a remarkable network, and we’re thrilled to be chosen as their preferred BNPL vendor. … With Acquios Alliance’s endorsement, we’re looking forward to bringing more independent optometry practices on board.”
