[39]
a firm stock was on a hell of a ride
[41]
after the company announced its plans to
[43]
partner with amazon under the
[45]
partnership amazon will integrate a
[47]
firm's buy now pay later solution into

its platform giving amazon's customers
[51]
the ability to split their purchases
[53]

[55]
partnering with fm is definitely going
[57]
to be a revenue booster for effort but
[59]

sizeable returns we will get to it in a
[63]
minute but before that if you like the
[65]
video and find it valuable please make
[67]

[68]
button i really appreciate your support
[70]
as it keeps me motivated to put in the
[72]
long hours for making these videos
[74]
alright let's move on
[77]
looks like the future of online shopping
[79]
is buy now pay later solutions as it
[82]
provides significant advantages over
[84]
conventional credit cards buy now pay
[86]
later solutions reduces the friction in
[88]
a transaction leading to a quick sale as
[91]
the customer does not have to worry
[92]
about the payments until later i
[94]
certainly feel that buy now pay later
[96]
solutions offer good competition to
[98]
credit cards credit cards come with a
[101]
swipe fee which is one to four percent
[103]
of the transaction amount and this is
[105]
charged to the seller while buying our
[106]
pay later solutions comes with a much
[108]
lower flat fee this definitely is a
[111]
great incentive for retailers and
[113]
e-commerce players to adopt buy now pay
[115]
later solutions as buying our pay later
[117]
solutions become more mainstream they
[119]
should be taking away major market share
[121]
from credit card companies and a firm
[123]
with its new partnership is well
[125]
positioned to profit out of that shift
[129]
the company posted impressive growth
[130]
metrics even before announcing its
[132]
partnership with amazon a firm ended the
[134]
third quarter of 2021 with 5.4 million
[138]
active customers up 60 from the previous
[141]
year revenue is expected to grow by 38
[143]
for 2022 not considering the revenues
[146]
from the amazon deal in addition to that
[148]
the number of active merchants more than
[150]
doubled to nearly 12 000. a firm
[153]
partnering with shopify was a
[154]
significant revenue booster and now with
[157]
amazon i don't think it's going to be
[159]
any different according to deutsche bank
[161]
analyst brian keane the partnership
[163]
could contribute an annual total payment
[165]
volume worth 7.7 billion dollars with a
[168]
potential revenue contribution of 385
[171]
million dollars so what's my take on
[173]
effort
[174]
following a successful ipo a firm stock
[177]
took off hitting an all-time high of 140
[181]
before bottoming around 46 dollars prior
[184]
to the amazon partnership a firm stock
[186]
was trading at around 20 times sales and
[188]
now it's even more expensive however the
[191]
growth potential a firm offers may
[193]
provide some justification for the
[195]
valuation in my previous video i raised
[198]
concerns on a firm's competition and its
[200]
huge dependency on peleton for revenue
[202]
with the amazon partnership the risk
[204]
associated with palliative is somewhat
[206]
addressed but it still has to fight an
[209]
uphill battle to crush the competition
[211]
that being said a firm to me looks like
[213]
a long-term hold only if you're a risk
[217]
tolerant investor now i would love to
[219]
hear from you guys what do you think
[221]
