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.

What credit offers are available?

0% For 4 Months Offer

A 0% interest offer you can use again and again: PayPal Credit's 0% interest offer is better than just an introductory offer. Every time you spend £99 or more, you will automatically get 0% interest for 4 months on that purchase.*

Plus, you can spread the cost of purchases under £99 at the standard variable rate of interest, currently 23.9% p.a.

* The minimum payment due still applies to 0% offer balances. Any remaining balance due after the 4-month promotional period or any transactions under £99 will be charged interest at 23.9% p.a. (variable). In order to maintain the 0% offer, you need to keep up monthly repayments and stay within your credit limit.

Instalments with PayPal Credit Offer

If your basket is eligible, a selection of 0% instalment offers will be displayed enabling you to spread the cost of your purchase across a number of monthly payments.

With instalment offers from PayPal Credit you get:

  • Regular monthly payments - you pay the same amount each month to help you plan better
  • A credit limit linked with your PayPal account that makes it easier to buy everything you need

The following instalments are offered at 0% APR:

  • 6 and 12 months: minimum spend of £99.00
  • 18 and 24 months: minimum spend £199.00
  • 36 months: minimum spend £750.00
  • 48 months: minimum spend £999.00

Signing up for a PayPal account is free and easy; all you need to do is provide your email address, create a password and accept PayPal's User Agreement.

I do not see PayPal Credit as a payment option?

For PayPal Credit to show as a payment option, you will need to ensure that the items in your basket are eligible for PayPal Credit and that you have a minimum spend of £99 within your basket.
