French term or phrase: par encours
"Possibilité de payer par encours à 30 jours"

This is an isolated phrase in an online store, I assume it's something to do with having 30 days credit on purchases, but I can't summon up the correct wording for the life of me!

up to 30 days to pay


Explanation:
Not sure if "credit" is being offered here - simply that payment is allowed in 30 days - not legally the same thing as extending credit, although it is the same to the layman.
