Hi @charliepyrah, 

Thank you for reaching out through the PayPal Community.

When purchasing with Pay in 3 / Pay in 4, we will conduct a pre-authorization hold on your specified card or bank for an amount equal to the initial down payment or one-third / fourth of your total purchase amount. This will show as a pending authorization within your PayPal account "Activity" and also at your financial institution. This is released 72 hours after the first repayment is completed. 

Hopefully, this helps.
