When to make payment it's secure and quick. When I want to pay in free installments it's without charge. I found it excellent. When I get refund it is fast. Reviewed on: 6th April 2026

Yay! I might get paid for this review!

I was asked to vote for PayPal as "Best Retail Finance Provider" for a chance to win £1000. Seems a bit like a bribe. They set up a late payment trap whereby they'll make no real effort to warn you of an overdue payment and charge you a horrendous fee when inevitably you miss the 1 email among the hundreds we all receive. Will they text you? No. Phone you? No. Just slap the fee on. Reviewed on: 6th April 2026

I only ever use pay in 3

5
I never really use credit but I've needed a couple of things lately whilst on sale so I thought we'll I use PayPal all the time I may as well take up their offer to pay in 3 and so knowing it's no interest I did exactly that and bought a few things. One was a pair of roller skates that were to much for me to buy but as there was the option to buy in 3 I went ahead and ordered them. They are the best company I've ever used and would never feel safe to buy online. Reviewed on: 6th April 2026

I bought a laptop it made sense to spread the cost Reviewed on: 6th April 2026

A fantastically flexible payment option...

5
This service is fantastic as it offers flexibility in how I pay for products, all of my purchases so far have been within the pre-approval threshold so I know without question that I can spread the cost and I can repay early without fees or penalties - it's, by far, my favourite way to pay for low-to-mid price products Reviewed on: 6th April 2026

Never a bad experience.

Never a bad experience. Always notice when a payment is due. Reviewed on: 6th April 2026
