Are there any fees for using Afterpay?
Afterpay caps late fees to help keep costs manageable for customers who miss a payment. Late fees will never exceed 25% of the order total or $68 per order, whichever is lower.
How this works:
-
Orders under $40: A one-time late fee of up to 25% of the order total applies
-
Orders of $40 or more: A $10 late fee is charged when a payment is missed. If the outstanding amount remains unpaid after seven days, an additional $7 late fee applies. This continues until the 25% cap or $68 amount is reached.
To remain within the cap, Afterpay may charge partial amounts of the $10 and $7 fees. You can check your General Terms for other late fee caps that may apply.
Afterpay is committed to helping you avoid missed payments by sending reminders and offering the option to reschedule upcoming payment dates.
Afterpay is designed to be different from traditional credit products that charge interest, so customers are never caught in high compounding interest or revolving debt.
