About the company

Perpay provides a platform for interest-free installment shopping. Users receive a spending limit based on a few questions and pay for their purchases through automatic deductions taken directly from their paychecks. Unlike many competitors that rely on traditional credit checks or high-interest loans, Perpay uses payroll integration to simplify the repayment process. The company's goal is to make significant retail purchases more accessible and affordable for people who want to avoid debt.
