“In today’s challenging retail and economic environment, merchants are looking for trusted ways to help drive average order values and conversion, without taking on additional costs,” said Doug Bland, senior vice president, global credit at PayPal. “At the same time, consumers are looking for more flexible and responsible ways to pay, especially online. With Pay in 4, we’re building on our history as the originator in the buy now, pay later space, coupled with PayPal’s trust and ubiquity, to enable a responsible and flexible way for consumers to shop while providing merchants with a tool that helps drive sales, loyalty and customer choice.”

Notably, PayPal currently has a network of 345 million global active merchant and consumer accounts and according to a study conducted by Comscore, has an 88.7 percent conversion rate — a score that is 82 percent higher than checkout without PayPal.

The Pay in 4 solution will be included in merchants’ existing PayPal pricing. At the same time, PayPal will enable retailers to get paid upon purchase while allowing consumers to pay for purchases over a six-week period.
