Promote PayPal Pay Later offers using messaging with the IWD plugin on your Magento 2 store.

PayPal offers short-term, interest-free payments and other special financing options that buyers can use to buy now and pay later. You get paid up-front, and there are no additional costs.

Pay in 3 instalments, which buyers in Italy can use to pay for purchases of 30€ – 2,000€ in three, interest-free payments.
