PAYPAL PAY IN 3 FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

PayPal now offers the flexibility to pay the way that works for you, with PayPal Pay in 3.

What is PayPal Pay in 3?

PayPal Pay in 3 is an interest-free loan that lets you split the cost of your order into 3 payments, with the first taken at time of purchase and subsequent payments due every month on the same date. It’s a great way to spread the cost of larger items, and a helpful tool to help manage your budget more effectively.

Pay in 3 is an unregulated credit agreement, so you will have fewer protections under this agreement than you would under a regulated credit agreement. Carefully consider whether the purchase is affordable and how you will make the repayments. Be aware of the possible impact of using Pay in 3 and of missing payments, including making other borrowing more difficult or more expensive.
