To use Afterpay, select it as your payment method at checkout, then create an account or log in to complete your purchase.

Can I use Afterpay for in-store purchases?

Yes, Afterpay can be used for in-store purchases at participating retailers by setting up the Afterpay Card in the app and adding it to your digital wallet. At checkout, tap your smartphone to split the payment into installments, similar to online shopping.

What are the eligibility requirements for using Afterpay?

To qualify for Afterpay, you must be at least 18 years old, have a valid email and phone number, and use a credit or debit card for payments. Approval also depends on purchase amount and your Afterpay history. Meeting these criteria allows you to create and use an account successfully.

How does Afterpay impact my credit score?
