Buy now, pay later arrangements are point-of-sale installment loans that allow consumers to make purchases and pay for them at a future date.
Buy now, pay later plans often don't charge interest and are often easier to get approved for than traditional credit cards or lines of credit are.
Consumers typically make an upfront payment toward the purchase, then pay the remainder off in a predetermined number of installments.
Buy now, pay later plans often don't charge interest and are often easier to get approved for than traditional credit cards or lines of credit are.
You make a purchase at a participating retailer and opt for buy now, pay later at checkout.
If approved (you're told in seconds), you make a small down payment, such as 25% of the overall purchase amount.
You then pay off the remaining amount due in a series of interest-free installments.
You can pay via a check or bank transfer; payments can also be deducted from your debit card, bank account, or credit card automatically.
Most buy now, pay later companies only require a soft credit check for approval, which doesn't affect your credit score. However, others may conduct a hard pull of your credit, which could knock a few points off your score temporarily.
Some buy now, pay later loans are reported to one or more of the three major credit bureaus. If a financial institution sends this information, the loan can show up on your credit reports, and it could impact your credit score.
