Q: I would like to apply for Interest Free Credit, how does it work?

A: With just a 10% deposit you can spread the cost of your purchase by choosing Interest Free Credit over a period of 6, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36 or 48 months. To find out more, visit our finance options page.

Q: I would like to apply for Paypal Credit, how does it work?

A: Similar to a credit card, but without the plastic, PayPal Credit gives you a credit limit on your PayPal account which can be used for online purchases. PayPal Credit is offered on orders between £150 and £349, where you can enjoy 0% interest for 4 months. Read our PayPal FAQs to find out more.

Q: I would like to apply for finance, but I’m being offered 0% and 9.9% APR. Why is this?

A: On certain items, there are restrictions on the 0% interest free credit options we’re able to provide you. In these cases, we may offer you interest-bearing options, so that you can still spread the cost over a longer period. This applies to the following categories, where you will likely see 0% options up to 12 or 24 months, as well as a 9.9% APR option for longer terms. The application process is the same regardless of which option you select. To find out more, visit our finance options page.
