    DALLAS – Army & Air Force Exchange Service shoppers can complete their holiday shopping while sticking to their budgets by using the MILITARY STAR® card’s fixed payment plans.

    The MILITARY STAR Pay Your Way plans allow shoppers to buy now and pay later by offering fixed monthly payments at a reduced APR of 9.99%. The plans are available at:

    • 36 months for purchases from $300 to $499.99.
    • 36 months or 48 months for purchases from $500-$999.99.
    • 36 months, 48 months or 60 months for purchases over $1,000.

    Pricing minimums apply to the order total.

    “The benefits of the Pay Your Way plans are simple: buy now, pay later. These plans give military shoppers the flexibility to manage their budgets, especially during the holiday shopping,” said Air Force Chief Master Sgt. Kevin Osby, the Army & Air Force Exchange Service’s senior enlisted advisor. “These plans are one of the many ways MILITARY STAR offers the military community responsible credit solutions.”

    Military shoppers can estimate the monthly payment on qualifying purchases using the payment estimator located at MyECP.com/Calculator. Cardholders may use multiple Pay Your Way plans based on their available credit. Express and fuel locations are excluded.
