How Afterpay works - What are the key challenges? New Age Walls discusses the impact it can have on customers this festive season!

New Age Walls recently launched Afterpay to make it easier for our customers to do Christmas shopping! Since a lot of our customers are new mums, we want you to understand fully what Afterpay is and be conscious of the challenges it may present! 

What is Afterpay?

Afterpay is a BNPL (buy now, pay  later) online shopping payment platform that lets you buy items instantly and pay for it in 6 instalments.

It was founded in Sydney in 2015 and has quickly gained popularity over the years in Australia and New Zealand. 

Here's how it works!

Afterpay challenges

Afterpay is a great platform that we recommend to everyone! it is especially handy when the festive season is upon us and we don't want to spare any expenses in making our loved ones feel special! 

While making others feel special, we ask you to take care of yourself too! Here are some precautions you can put in place so you don't loose track of your financials! 

  1. Set up Afterpay with a debit card, not a credit card. This way you are not stretching your financials 
  2. Set spending limits and stick to them
  3. Set up payment reminders to avoid accidental late fees, although Afterpay does automatically set up reminders for you
  4. Make use of discounts and sales run by businesses during this festive season.
