Easy pay

I just had to order some meds online and when I went to check out, they offered me 3 "easy pays" on one of my meds.I didn't want that, but first time I've ever had that happen. It was only about $20.00. Haven't ordered the really pricey one yet.

WOW!! One of my RA meds is $5800 so I understand them doing this. But when does it ever get caught up?

Optum Rx has a 3-pay payment plan that can be selected if you wish. It has been offered for a time now and I have used it for expensive meds.

Even PayPal offers an easy pay plan.

Many retailers off a form of Easy Pay - Affirm, Karna, Afterpay are all payment services that offer a form of Easy Pay.

Not sure about my Mail Order Pharmacy. Fortunately I qualified to get my most expensive prescription free from the parent company of the manufacturer.

Going to find out, but with my other prescriptions topping out at $30, I am ok with 1 payment.

I've used this a few times and I like it. Not offered with all PayPal purchases, tho. Seems it may be dependent on the retailer and sometimes the $ value of the sale.

I have not seen that with pharmacy but I have seen it with everything else. My friend's granddaughters is taking a $2000 summer class. When Grandma went to pay for it, there was a 3 month easy pay deal. Not through the college, through a private company. Interest free.

Yes. Most retailers offer one of these. My friend paid for a $2000 summer class for her granddaughter with Affirm. Paying over 3 months more advantageous for her than putting it on a credit card.

I use a compounding pharmacy for a prescription nasal rinse steroid powder. I could purchase monthly, but three months at a time comes out cheaper. They've never offered an installment plan.
