How Afterpay works for customers
Afterpay is available to customers over the age of 18 with a credit or debit card, in New Zealand, Australia, USA and the UK (Clearpay). Currently you can only use your Afterpay account for Afterpay integrated stores that are set up to operate in your country.
To set up Afterpay, the customer downloads the Afterpay app from Google Play or the App Store, and sets up their account. This is really the only time they’ll need to input credit or debit card details when shopping online where Afterpay is accepted, making for a much speedier checkout.
The shopper can shop from the Afterpay app’s All Stores tab providing quick links to stores that offer Afterpay. A shopper can manage their Afterpay account from the app, with transactions and order history, there is also the option to set up reminder notifications.
