Pay Later is a gritty, heartfelt tragi-romcom about fast money, social pressure, and the resilience young people need to stay afloat.
When Kai tries to impress Danique, he chooses “Pay Later” just once. But once becomes twice — and twice becomes a tangled web of debt, lies… and danger.

Inspired by real stories from young people, police officers and debt-counsellors, the film exposes a growing problem that’s far bigger than it seems — and invites audiences to talk about it.
Featuring standout performances by Benjamin de Vries & Elena Merkus (One Way to Paris), Jesse van Zuuk (Brugklas), Soufiane Moussouli (God’s Lamb, iHostage), Jason Gwen (Skin), Niels Gorissen, Carlijn van Vliet (Luxeproblemen) and a fresh wave of new talent.
Created as a powerful tool for teachers, youth workers, parents and anyone supporting young people, Pay Later helps spark urgent conversations about financial health, pressure and vulnerability.
Made possible by Rabobank and Bank voor de Klas, ensuring the film reaches schools across the Netherlands.
