Pay Later messaging

Pay Later messaging lets your buyers know they can buy now and pay later if they check out with PayPal. Adding messaging to your website can help improve conversion, attract new customers, and increase order values.

Pay Later messages are dynamic, meaning you can show your customers their specific Pay Later offer based on the contents of their shopping cart.
