Xbox has added a new “buy now, pay later” option on its website, potentially opening up the possibility of owning an Xbox for more people. The option was initially uncovered in the site’s code, and now appears to be rolling out for Xbox fans.
Xbox Reveals Huge Number of Lost Game Pass Subscriptions Following 2025 Price Hike
Xbox Game Pass apparently has a lot less subscribers than it used to, thanks to a major price increase that happened back in 2025.
Gamers now have the option to finance their purchases with Xbox, giving them the ability to pay later or over time for an Xbox. According to redphx, the site’s backend now includes code that indicates that both PayPal and Klarna will be available, but at the time of writing, only the PayPal option appears to be active on the site. Buyers are given an opportunity to pay for their purchase across four interest-free bi-weekly payments, or they can finance their deal to pay off their new Xbox over 24 months, instead. The option is only available when buying Xbox consoles, so those who were hoping to finance the cost of an Xbox controller or a game are out of luck with this deal. However, for those who have found the price of a new or refurbished Xbox to be too steep to commit to, this new option could be helpful.
