These terms apply to you and your use of the Pay Later Messaging Center (the, “Program Terms”) in addition to any other agreement you have with PayPal, including the PayPal User Agreement. Please familiarize yourself with the general terms of the PayPal Advertising Program that apply to you under that agreement.

The PayPal Advertising Program enables qualifying merchants to place buy now, pay later or other consumer credit product promotional messaging and buttons (together, “Pay Later Messaging”) hosted by PayPal on their websites and through other channels as may be made available by PayPal from time to time. To participate in the PayPal Advertising Program with respect to PayPal’s Pay Later Messaging, you must be a Italian-based merchant with a Italian-facing website and you must have an eligible integration, unless authorized by us in writing. See “How do I know if I am eligible to promote pay later offers” in our FAQs. Further, PayPal’s pay later offers are available to eligible Italian consumers only.

When You use the Pay Later Messaging Center, follow instructions on the Get Started page. The content on the Pay Later Messaging Center site is to be used solely for the purpose of displaying Pay Later Messaging on your website and may not be used for any other purpose (other than those that are affirmatively enabled by us through the Pay Later Messaging Center).

The terms of PayPal’s offers advertised by the Pay Later Messaging, including duration and threshold, are in PayPal’s sole discretion and cannot be changed by you. Should PayPal choose to change the terms of PayPal’s offers, the hosted banners will automatically update, provided you have integrated the code correctly.
