OnePlus starts offering installment plans in the U.S. for purchases over $99

Starting today, OnePlus customers spending $99 or more at the company's online U.S. store, will be able to make installment payments on their purchase thanks to PayPal. For example, the OnePlus 2 can be bought by promising to make 18 monthly payments starting at $22.60 a month. The OnePlus X can be bought by making monthly payments of $16.12 for 18 months.

Unlike carrier based installment plans, the ones from OnePlus allow U.S. customers to quickly switch their wireless provider in the middle of the installment contract. And those wanting to pay off their remaining balance in one fell swoop can do so at anytime.

To purchase your new OnePlus phone using an installment plan, select PayPal Credit when checking out on the OnePlus website. A calculator function will allow you to compute your various payment options. Keep in mind that unlike most carrier installment plans, OnePlus is charging interest on the purchase.

Giving OnePlus buyers the option of paying in installments should give a boost to OnePlus sales. The 64GB OnePlus 2 retails for $349 and up, while the 16GB OnePlus X has a retail price of $249 and higher.
