Wickes Partners With Billie to Expand TradePro Payment Options

Wickes and Billie Logo 725

Wickes has partnered with Billie to offer TradePro customers a faster, smarter way to buy materials. TradePro customers can now order what they need and pay the invoice in 30 or 60 days, interest-free, with real-time approval at checkout. The service is available online and in the TradePro app, with delivery or click-and-collect options. Once the quick approval process has been completed in the checkout, Tradespeople can start using Billie immediately. 

Billie, a Berlin-based fintech, specialises in modern B2B payment solutions, allowing merchants to get paid upfront while offering buyers flexible payment terms. The service handles credit checks, payment authorisation, and risk, so businesses can focus on projects rather than administrative tasks.

Paul Canavan, Digital Director at Wickes says: “We’re proud to partner with Billie to make trade buying simpler, faster, and more flexible. TradePro customers across the UK can get the materials they need straight away and pay in 30 or 60 days, interest-free, whether they choose delivery or click-and-collect. At Wickes, we’re committed to supporting tradespeople with the right products, the right service, and now, the right payment options, helping them keep jobs on track and their businesses running smoothly.”

“While one-click shopping and maximum payment flexibility have become the absolute norm in our private lives, the reality of the B2B buying experience is often still defined by complexity and hurdles. Billie is on a mission to simplify B2B commerce with payment solutions that meet the needs of both sellers and buyers,” said Roger De’Ath, Director Partnerships at Billie. “Rolling out our B2B Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) solution with 30 and 60 day terms for Wickes’ TradePro customers is a major milestone. It demonstrates that leading brands embrace the necessity of offering simpler ways to buy and pay, and we are proud to help Wickes’ customers focus on what really matters: their business.” 

TradePro customers can now plan their purchases around the job, order materials instantly, and keep projects moving without the upfront cost. Whether it’s a small day-to-day task or a larger project, Billie’s Pay Later gives tradespeople the flexibility to buy what they need and pay later, helping them stay on track and budgets under control. 

Billie’s Pay Later is already used by over 1,000,000 business buyers across more than 8,000 merchants in Europe. It has become a standard for B2B payments, helping businesses save time, reduce risk, and scale efficiently.
