Flex Your Budget, Pay Your Way.

Why Use Buy Now, Pay Later with One Detroit?
While third-party BNPL apps are popular, our program is built with our members' best interests at heart.
- Bank with People You Trust: When you use BNPL with us, you get the confidence of knowing we understand your financial needs.
- Ultimate Convenience: Forget downloading extra apps. View and manage all your plans directly within your existing One Detroit digital banking.

- No Credit Check: We do not perform a credit check to determine your eligibility for BNPL. Using this service and paying on time will not affect your credit score.
Two Great Ways to Pay Over Time
Our BNPL program offers two flexible options to fit your needs.
- Split Your Payments (SYP) Have you already made a purchase? No problem. Our SYP option allows you to take an eligible debit card purchase you've already made and pay for it in installments over time. This works for most purchases, whether you shopped online or in-store.
- Plan Your Purchase (PYP) Planning for a large expense or facing an unexpected bill? The PYP option lets you see how much you are pre-qualified for, accept an installment plan, and get the funds deposited directly into your account to use for your purchase.
