0% finance on everything over £99
PayPal’s 0% interest offer is better than just an introductory offer. Simply spend over £99 and you get 0% interest for 4 months on that purchase*. The great thing is you’ll automatically get 0% for 4 months every time you spend over £99. So, if you’re planning on renovating your home or landscaping your garden, PayPal Credit is the perfect way to spread the cost of those larger purchases.

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.
Think of it as a secure, instant and reusable credit line your customers can use at checkout when they pay with their PayPal account and choose PayPal Credit, as long as you have a qualifying PayPal payment product. PayPal Credit is subject to credit approval.
Two great ways to spread the cost of purchases
 |  |
| Start straight away, with 4 months to pay. 0% interest on all purchases, again and again. | Pay in monthly instalments at 16.9% APR (variable) on qualifying spends. |
| 0% for the first 4 months when you spend £99 or more in one go. Then your standard rate until the balance is paid off.* | 12, 24, 36 and 48 month terms available.** |
Does PayPal Credit offer other benefits?
PayPal Credit gives you credit that you can use again and again. Other benefits include:
- Flexibility and control — choose to settle up immediately or spread the costs monthly
- Promotional offers so you could receive reduced interest, or interest-free rates, on certain purchases
- PayPal Credit is easily accessible from your PayPal account when you make an online purchase
- An easy way to manage purchases: view purchases on your monthly statement or online.
Representative example
| Purchase rate p.a (variable) | Representative APR (variable) | Assumed credit limit |
| 23.9% | 23.9% | £1,200 |
This example above illustrates the typical cost of using PayPal Credit as a standard funding method. If you take advantage of PayPal offers and promotions, including our 0% for 4 months offer, the interest rate that applies will be lower in many circumstances.
