If you’re looking to buy a gaming laptop but don’t have the cash upfront then purchasing a gaming laptop on finance may be a good option. Luckily there are plenty of UK retailers who make it relatively easy to spread the cost of a new computer with most offering 0% interest credit options.
EE Store (formerly BT Shop) is one of the best places to pick up a gaming laptop on finance as they offer 0% interest purchases over a period of 24 or 36 months, depending on the product in question. This is thanks to their flexible PayPal credit purchasing options which can be used on a weekly basis so you’ll never forget to pay.
Argos also have a great approach to finance with their Argos Card, which can be used online and in store to purchase anything from the catalogue including gaming laptops. This is a bit more restrictive than other 0% interest instalment plans as it’s only available on products over PS200 and doesn’t cover the entire catalogue but they do have a decent selection of PC gaming laptops on offer.
Another retailer with a good range of gaming laptops on offer is Box who offer 0% interest credit over a period of 4 months as long as you’re able to pay by the given date. Alternatively, they have a number of other finance options which can be used on gaming laptops with terms of 12 or 24 months at 21.9% APR (variable).
There are a few other retailers who offer the odd 0% interest payment plan on gaming laptops but these are generally based around second-hand gaming computers rather than dedicated PC gaming machines. For example, Music Magpie offers a buy now pay later plan that uses Klarna to allow customers to purchase a second-hand game console or laptop and then pay the balance in 3 equal payments after 30 days and 60 days post-purchase.
