Consumer receivables

We offer revolving and installment credit products as a funding option for consumers in certain checkout transactions on our payments platform. Our revolving credit product consists of PayPal Credit in the United Kingdom (“U.K.”), which is made available to consumers as a funding source in their PayPal wallet once they are approved for credit. Additionally, we offer installment credit products at the time of checkout in various markets, including the U.S., several markets across Europe, Australia, and Japan. We offer non interest-bearing installment credit products in these markets as well as interest-bearing installment credit products in the U.S. and Germany, among other markets. We purchase receivables related to interest-bearing installment loans extended to U.S. consumers by an independent chartered financial institution (“partner institution”) and are responsible for the servicing functions related to that portfolio. During the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, we purchased approximately $783 million and $602 million in consumer receivables, respectively. For both June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the outstanding balance of consumer receivables, which consisted of revolving and installment loans and interest receivable, was $5.5 billion, net of the participation interest sold to the partner institution of $36 million and $33 million as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.

The allowance for credit losses at June 30, 2026 for our consumer receivable portfolio remained relatively consistent with the allowance for credit losses at December 31, 2025. In the first quarter of 2026, we updated our expected credit loss model for interest bearing installment loans in the U.S. to reflect current risk characteristics. This change did not have a material impact on our allowance for credit losses in the period.

Merchant receivables

We offer access to merchant finance products for certain small and medium-sized businesses through our PayPal Working Capital (“PPWC”) product in the U.S., Germany, and U.K., among other markets, and our PayPal Business Loan (“PPBL”) product in the U.S., which we collectively refer to as our merchant finance offerings. We purchase receivables related to credit extended to U.S. merchants by a partner institution and are responsible for the servicing functions related to that portfolio. During the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, we purchased approximately $1.2 billion and $1.0 billion in merchant receivables, respectively. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the total outstanding balance in our pool of merchant loans, advances, and fees receivable was $1.9 billion and $1.8 billion, respectively, net of the participation interest sold to the partner institution of $67 million and $65 million, respectively.
