Payment by instalments
A series of payments that a buyer makes instead of a lump sum to compensate the seller. It often includes interest to pay the seller for accepting the credit risk that the buyer will not make payments in a timely manner. The method of payment by instalments makes expensive goods and services available to buyers who would not otherwise be able to afford them.
