A seller has offered me a good deal on a buy now item, I would prefer to use PayPal credit to pay for the item over time which there is an option when using the buy now feature however when you are send an offer I don't know whether I can use PayPal credit to purchase it and I don't want to be stuck in accepting an offer I can't afford upfront. If I click accept offer will it take me to a purchase screen with PayPal credit present?

Hello @Dord2000,
Welcome to the PayPal Community! This is a great question. I'm happy to hear you've found a good deal on buy now item! Unfortunately, it's hard to tell if PayPal Credit will be available for a specific transaction until you begin checkout as it depends on the merchant's location and any potential restrictions on the item. I would recommend having a secondary payment method on deck just in case PayPal Credit isn't available or isn't approved for that transaction.
My apologies for any inconvenience this may present,
