Synchrony originated as GE Capital's consumer lending and credit card division, focused on private-label and co-branded credit cards for retail partners. Following its 2014 IPO spin-off from GE, Synchrony has expanded beyond private-label cards into BNPL (Pay Later), installment loans, and eCommerce financing integrations. The company's embedded finance strategy centers on becoming the consumer credit infrastructure layer for merchants across retail, healthcare, home improvement, and automotive verticals — offering white-label financing that merchants embed directly in their checkout flows.
