We hear it all the time: “I want that phone, but I just got paid bills.” Life in Belize is real — things come up, payday doesn’t always line up with when you need something, and nobody wants to take out a loan for a phone.

That’s exactly why we offer layaway. It’s simple, it’s fair, and it’s one of the things our customers tell us they appreciate most about shopping with Pletts.

How It Works — Step by Step

Step 1:  Come in or message us on WhatsApp and tell us which phone you want.

Step 2:  Pay just 25% of the price to reserve your device. We take it off the shelf and hold it for you.

Step 3:  Pay the remaining balance at your own pace — you have up to 2 months.

Step 4:  Once it’s fully paid, come pick up your brand-new phone. Simple as that.

What Does 25% Look Like in Real Numbers?

Let’s make it concrete:

•  On a $300 BZD phone — your deposit is $75 BZD

•  On a $600 BZD phone — your deposit is $150 BZD

•  On a $1,200 BZD phone — your deposit is $300 BZD

The rest you pay off over up to 2 months, however works for you. Whether that’s weekly, bi-weekly, or all at once when you get paid — we work with you.

Why Layaway Makes More Sense Than Waiting

You might think: “I’ll just save up and buy it outright.” But here’s the problem — phones sell fast, especially when new stock arrives or during sale periods. By the time you’ve saved up, the model you wanted might be gone, or the price might have changed.

With layaway, you lock in the phone and the price the day you make your deposit. Nobody else can buy it. It’s yours — you just haven’t picked it up yet.

Can I Lay Away Any Phone?

Layaway is available on all phones in stock across all 6 of our branches — Orange Walk, Belize City, San Pedro, Belmopan, San Ignacio, and Spanish Lookout. If you’re not near a branch, message us on WhatsApp and we can help you sort out the details.

What If My Plans Change?

Life happens. If your situation changes and you’re not able to complete the layaway, reach out to us and we’ll talk through your options.
