credit transactions

Buy now, later

Credit transactions are purchases or payments made on credit rather than with immediate cash—the buyer receives goods or services now and pays later.

The term appears in banking, accounting, and consumer finance contexts: The statement lists all credit transactions for the month.

Credit transactions include credit card purchases, loans, and any arrangement where payment is deferred.
