What's the difference between "pay back" and "pay off" ? What's the difference between "pay back" and "pay off"? Seem their meaning are same , means "give money owed",right ? I made the sentences and please correct if they are wrong. 1 ) You should pay back the money in 10 days. 2 ) How can I pay off this mortgage ? Could you give me more example sentences for reference ? Thank you.

Pay back/pay off the loan = same But 'pay off' also means to pay somebody to do something immoral or illegal We paid him off to be quiet about the affair We paid her off to throw the jury vote We paid him off to throw the fight And 'Pay back' also means to get revenge. He ruined my chances of getting promoted and I'm going to pay him back.
