Lay-Buy (Layaway) Terms and Conditions

Electric Wheelchairs USA offers a Layaway Program through Lay-Buy, powered by PayPal, allowing you to pay for your mobility product over time with convenient monthly installments — no credit check and no interest.

1. Overview

Our layaway program enables customers to pay for eligible wheelchairs and scooters through Lay-Buy, a payment system managed by PayPal. Lay-Buy automatically collects your payments each month from your PayPal account or linked credit/debit card.


2. Payments & Fees

  • Deposit: A 20% non-refundable deposit is required at the time of purchase.
  • Admin Fee: 1.9% of the total purchase price is charged by Lay-Buy as an administrative fee at the time of purchase. This fee is paid directly to Lay-Buy and is not retained by Electric Wheelchairs USA. This fee is non-refundable.
  • Installments: The remaining balance will be divided into four (4) automatic monthly installments, which will be charged to your card on the same day each month.
  • Early Payoff: You may pay off your balance early at any time through your Lay-Buy account.
  • Extensions: The number of installments may be extended at the sole discretion of Electric Wheelchairs USA, upon request and review.

3. Order Fulfillment

  • Once the last payment clears, we will process your order with the manufacturer according to our standard fulfillment timelines.

4. Product Availability

  • In the event your selected product is out of stock by the time your final payment is received, we will contact you immediately.
    • You may choose a comparable product of equal value, or
    • You may cancel your layaway and receive a refund of all payments made, excluding the admin fee.

5. Cancellations & Refunds

  • The deposit and admin fee are non-refundable.
  • If you cancel your layaway before completion, any payments made beyond the deposit will be refunded to your original payment method.
