What is PayPal Credit?
PayPal Credit is like a credit card, without the plastic. It's a credit limit that's attached to your PayPal account which you can use for your online purchases.
Instalments with PayPal Credit Offer - 0% for 6 or 12 months
If your order is £149 or more, 6 months 0% instalment option will be available to you. If your order is £149 or more, a selection of 6 and 12 months 0% instalment options will be available to you, enabling you to spread the cost of your purchase accordingly.
