-According to Paypal, customers are likely to pay more if they know that financing options are available to them early on in the shopping process. Research shows that "''Businesses promoting financing on their websites and in customer emails are seeing an average 20% increase in their overall online sales''". You can let your customers know they can finance their purchases by placing PayPal's ready-made banner ads on your store's website. The banner ads can be used free of charge, and X-Cart's '''Bill Me Later financing''' module makes the process of placing them on your website as easy as a couple of clicks. Basically, you only need to select on what pages (Home, Category, Product details or Cart) and where exactly on the page they need to be shown.
