ARRIVE Booking Agency is launching its "Book Now, Pay Later" program, giving clients more flexibility when booking their favorite performers. ARRIVE has partnered with PayPal to offer secure payment options so clients can lock in top talent without paying everything upfront. There are two flexible options — PayPal Pay Later for a fast checkout, and ARRIVE Flexible Payments for businesses that need an extended plan. Whether you’re planning a corporate event, a wedding, or a private party, securing world-class performers is easier than ever. Book today and pay on your terms.
PayPal Pay Later
Selectable at ARRIVE checkout, PayPal Pay Later is available to eligible ARRIVE clients in the United States, United Kingdom, Australia, France, Germany, Italy, and Spain. It lets clients secure top-rated performers immediately and spread the cost over installments — typically a small payment now and the balance over a set number of payments. Many PayPal Pay Later plans are interest-free with no added fees. PayPal determines eligibility, plan options, and limits, which vary by country and amount. ARRIVE receives the full booking amount upfront, so your performer is secured the moment your plan is approved.
PayPal Pay Later is the right fit for individuals and private hosts, as well as businesses — anyone eligible can choose it at checkout. You can read PayPal’s own terms for Pay Later on PayPal’s website.
ARRIVE Flexible Payments
ARRIVE Flexible Payments is a separate program offered directly by ARRIVE to vetted venues and professional event planners in the United States and Canada — with no interest and no finance charge. Approved businesses pay a 25% deposit at booking and spread the balance over 3, 6, or 12 months, on bookings up to $2,500. Applications are reviewed by the ARRIVE team, usually within 48 hours. This program is for businesses; individual hosts can use PayPal Pay Later above.
Full details are in the ARRIVE Flexible Payment Options Terms.
