Financial Features:
Credit Approval: Bill Me Later is subject to credit approval, as determined by the lender, WebBank. “Subject Credit Approval” means that WebBank will review and consider your credit report and other credit related information prior to opening your account and establishing your buying power. This process happens very quickly during the Bill Me Later checkout process.
APR and Late Fees: There is no annual fee to use Bill Me Later and the APR (Annual Percentage Rate) is 19.99%, but you can opt to pay your entire balance by the payment due date and pay no finance charges. Bill Me Later will also charge a late fee of $25 if the minimum payment is not paid in full by the payment due date, which is shown on your statement. If you’re late to pay the full amount again, the late fee will be $35.

Understanding “Buying Power”: The definition of “buying power” is the ability of a consumer to use liquid assets to purchase the desired quantity and quality of products that will meet current wants and needs. According to the Bill Me Later support page, here’s an example of how buying power works:
- If your first purchase using Bill Me Later is $150 dollars, your initial buying power will be $250.
- If you pay your first bill before you make another purchase for $300, we will adjust your buying power to $450 (if you are eligible for higher buying power).
- Then, if you pay off $350 of your first bill, you will have $350 of buying power remaining. If you want to make another purchase using Bill Me Later for more than $350, we will increase your buying power again (if you are eligible for higher buying power).
You can always continue to make additional purchases up to your outstanding buying power, and we will consider increasing your buying power when your purchase goes above it.
