With HDFC Bank EasyEMI payment method, you can simply pay back the entire amount in easier, smaller monthly payments with no additional cost. You don't need to fill up long documentation or make an upfront payment. All you need is an HDFC Bank debit or credit card. Once you make a purchase you can convert that transaction into EasyEMI. If you don't have an HDFC Bank card, you can simply avail a consumer loan at any major offline retail store and avail easy monthly payment options. Buying a new laptop was never this easy!
