Pay in 4 is not available to residents of MO. It could be your state if you're having trouble.
It didn't work for me. I live in Misery.

is it possible to avoid it if your payment is out of MO but our pick up location is in MO?

Paypal points showed as pending overnight. I got an app alert saying 25000 points (or whatever the $250 equivalent is) pending due to my purchase! Thanks OP. Assuming they post that's a killer deal.

I put trade in on my purchase and the points are pending. I think I'm going to not trade in and just sell on ebay or locally. The value will be similar (maybe slightly higher on ebay) but then I don't risk having something mess up with the posted points.

I was having difficulty replicating this deal, however I meet all the listed requirements. No 'Pay in 4' option was showing up as an available payment method for me.
I called PayPal customer service and they informed me because I have a business account, it isn't eligible for the promotion, only personal accounts. A new personal account can be set up using the same phone number and a separate email to participate in this deal.
Hope this helps someone having difficulty. I'll try setting up a personal account and trying again.

I'm getting denied for the pay in 4 option.
I have a 800 credit score, I'm verified in PayPal and I have multiple accounts registered with them.

All it says is the following. It's my first time using Pay in 4, so I don't owe them any money, and I've been with PayPal for many years.

We regret that we are unable to approve your request at this time for the following reason:

Total balance on your outstanding Pay in 4 loans or the Pay in 4 loan amount you requested is too high.

Quote from BRPXR600R :

My PayPal Account Activity showed points pending immediately after I made the purchase online. After I picked up the phone at the Apple Store, PayPal showed 25000 Points pending. If I don't receive the cash back, I have until January 8, 2026 to return the phone.
it was smart that you ordered the phone at the local store and picked it up already. I'm concerned that for those ordering it online with shipping, that if it doesn't ship until after December 2 PayPal may not honor this cashback.

Since the cashback can take up to 90 days, do you plan on returning the phone in early January within return period if the cashback hasn't already posted to your account by then?

What is the limit for your pay in 4? Mine was $1500 and they say it's based on account activity and history. When I tried to purchase the phone with Apple care, pay in 4 wasn't available because it pushed the total over $1500.

I will probably keep the phone anyway, it's a gift. By the end of the year, I would think we should know if this deal is legit. If the points arn't available by the New Year, I'll call PayPal support.

My limit is $1250. I was trying to buy an iPhone 17 Pro 256, even with tax I'm below the limit.

Can anyone confirm that this will also work for the regular iPhone 17 256GB model?

I know I'd be leaving cashback money on the table here, but I'm fine with it.
