Flipkart Pay Later allows you to make purchases on credit and pay for them later. However, you may face situations where Flipkart Pay Later option does not show up or stops working during checkout on the Flipkart app or website. There could be several reasons behind this.
Common Reasons Why Flipkart Pay Later May Not Work
Here are some of the common reasons why you may face issues with Flipkart Pay Later:
- Reached credit limit – Flipkart sets a credit limit based on your eligibility. Once you exceed this limit, you cannot use Pay Later further until previous dues are cleared.
- Pending payments – If you have any pending payments or unpaid EMIs with Flipkart Pay Later, the feature gets temporarily blocked until you clear outstanding dues.
- Bank verification issue – Flipkart verifies your bank account while activating Pay Later. Any mismatch in details provided can lead to verification failure and block the facility.
- App or site glitches – Temporary technical glitches on Flipkart’s app or website may also cause Pay Later option to not show up.
- Eligibility criteria not met – You must meet certain eligibility criteria set by Flipkart regarding credit score, purchase history etc. Failing to meet them would make you ineligible for Pay Later.
