Selling With Payl8r
Yes, we offer in-store and online buy now pay later for business.
Merchants are paid the next working day for accepted orders.
Unregulated loans contain no interest and must be under 12 months. These loans are typical in the buy now pay later industry and suit low value purchases.
Regulated loans either contain interest and/or are over 12 months in term and, as such, retailers and merchants must hold the appropriate Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) permissions. Fortunately, Payl8r is able to provide retailers with authorised FCA permissions through onboarding them as an Introducer Appointed Representative (IAR).
To become a Payl8r partner you must have 3 months trading history.
Payl8r is available both online and instore or at clinics.

Technical and Integrations
We link with a variety of web platforms
At Payl8r we offer different types of integrations to best suit your website. All our retailers receive an integration manual which maps out your journey whether you have chosen WordPress, Magento or a custom integration.
Plugin Installation
Once the plugin is installed on your site customers can select Payl8r on the checkout and follow our easy-to-use application form. As a retailer you will be able to track these orders from your dashboard where you can see a status of accepted, pending or rejected.
We will send you a unique username and public key when your website has been approved to go live.
In order to approve a website, we look for the following:
- Payl8r logo added to the footer of the website. Clicking the logo should take customers to www.payl8r.com
- Our information and demo calculator page should be added and working correctly in both desktop and mobile.
- The product page calculator should be clearly visible on each product page. Clicking ‘View More’ should bring up a modal which will show customers roughly what they will pay over their desired repayment period.
- Payl8r payment gateway on checkout.
Once the above has been added you can email the Payl8r IT Team who will review your website and a member of our team will be back in touch.
Our IT Support Email: [email protected]
Once Payl8r has been added to your site, you can check that everything is working correctly by attempting to checkout. You will then see a test response which will let you know if our servers are talking to each other.
End-to-end testing will be completed just before you go live. A member of our team will be able to monitor from our back end to ensure everything is running smoothly.
You may not receive orders for the following reasons:
- Your account is in test mode
- Your account has not yet been approved
