Enable Pay Later messaging on Magento (Braintree)

Promote PayPal Pay Later offers using messaging and buttons on your Magento store using Braintree.

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 upfront at no additional cost unless you are in the US.

Pay Later messaging include the following Pay Later offers which are available to US customers only:

• Pay in 4 - Eligible US buyers can pay in four interest-free payments for purchases of $30 to $1,500.
• Pay Monthly - Eligible US buyers can pay in 6, 12, or 24 monthly installments for purchases of $199 to $10,000.

Know before you begin

• Before you begin, learn more about Pay Later offers.
• Pay Later messaging is enabled for new merchants. If you're an existing merchant, enable the messaging.
• US-based consumers are eligible for Pay Later offers across most of our integrations. As a merchant, you're eligible to promote Pay Later offers if you are based in the US with a US-facing website and a one-time payment integration. Promoting Pay Later offers is not available if you're using vaulted payments or subscriptions.
• Please note that while this option provides messaging that can be displayed on your website to help promote this feature to your customers, no additional content, wording, marketing, or other materials should be created by you to encourage use of this product.
