PayPal "pay in 3" - a simple yet great way to pay

5
I have been using PayPal for years to pay or receive money and it is efficient easy way to do so. When I have tried "Pay in 3" option, I found it brilliant! Three simple pre-calculated instalments, no extra interest on each payment, dates clearly set out in PayPal wallets and option to pay off early if you wish too! And most important, if this payment option appearing as "pre-approved", it stays that way - no nasty surprise with sudden changes of pre-approvals. This feature helped me greatly with many purchases and my finances management. Will use it for sure in the future again! Reviewed on: 29th May 2024

PayPal offers an amazing feature where you can pay for your purchase in three instalments. No interest and no late fees, which makes it really easy to budget. This is brilliant for larger purchases such as a big food shop or travel expenses. All with the added security of PayPal's systems and customer service. Reviewed on: 29th May 2024
