Perfect option

Amazing to have PayPal credit as an option for payments, especially in these very difficult times. It makes spending a little less of a headache and with manageable rates and payment options for repayment, it’s an awesome feature! Reviewed on: 8th July 2022

Great service - PayPal since 2002!

5
I have been using PayPal since 2002 (as far as I can remember), when I opened an eBay account. Since then, it has been great, and I’ve never had any issues. PayPal Credit is another excellent service that allows me to spread the cost over 3–4 months without interest, so I don’t have to worry about paying everything at once. Reviewed on: 29th June 2025

Have loved the flexability that is provided by PayPal. Means I can break a larger payment over 3 months which is much easier to manage than in one large payment up front. You've helped me on many occassions, so thank you. Reviewed on: 28th June 2025
