Apple Pay Later Likely Officially Launching in the U.S. Imminently

​Apple Pay Later will likely be officially launching imminently for all qualifying U.S. residents, as Apple’s website no longer refers to it as a “prerelease” feature. Apple Pay Later had been available on an invite-only basis since March.

Apple removed the following sentence from all Apple Pay Later support documents today:Apple Pay Later is currently only available to customers invited to access a prerelease version.Apple Pay Later is a “buy now, pay later” feature that lets qualifying customers split a purchase made with Apple Pay into four equal payments over six weeks, with no interest or fees. The feature is available for eligible purchases between $75 and $1,000 made on an iPhone or iPad on most websites and apps that accept Apple Pay.

The minimum purchase amount required to use Apple Pay Later was $50 during the early access period, but Apple has now raised it to $75.

It’s unclear if the wider launch of Apple Pay Later will be tied to the upcoming iOS 17.1 update or if it will happen with a server-side change.
