      • RogueWolf on 19/08/2021 - 09:28

        you lose credit card benefits like price protection, accidental damage, extended warranty, which comes in handy on high end items

          It still gets charged to my 28 degrees and pretty sure I've successfully used price protection in the past.
          Depends on the card perhaps.

          • RogueWolf on 19/08/2021 - 09:51

            @G-rig: interesting to know, have 28deg also, didn't think it would work if you use a bnpl service & then pay it off, id still suggest contacting the cc company to make sure

              @RogueWolf: Agree, I have only used afterpay about twice to get the good code/price on ebay, but usually pay off the remaining instalments immediately (or ahead of time). Did that with the Sony wh-1000xm4 last time ($300.80) and have never seen them cheaper. It's impossible to get a home loan anyway, but not sure how much one needs to worry about your credit rating if you pay it off in time etc.

                  Most people aren't borrowing much typically (just the cost of the item)

              @RogueWolf: Latitude is very generous with their price protection insurance according to my experience. You can pretty much do anything reasonable or even slightly unreasonable and they will still pay you.

They happily take coupons/vouchers into consideration for price-match with no question asked. Superb customer service! Easily $1000-$2000 back a year.

      For those interested, you can partially pay with gift cards, pay the balance on Afterpay and claim the full discount.

              @wakkawalla: By the way, just tried and it now looks like with afterpay, a maximum of 5 gift cards can be used. I managed to register more than 5 GC, but if you put more GC, the full price without the GC value will be shown to be paid on the afterpay page. Anyway, I grabbed a 5600X for about $290… stacking afterpay $30, ebay GC 10% off paid with coles GC 3% off…

            @crazyperpman: Partial Payment MUST be done via AP, so you cannot fully pay off the balance with gift cards.

          Thanks for the info guys.

          Just to explain further. I am planning on buying something for $1650 (Before AP Discount).

          I want to buy a $1000 GC from shopback to the 3% and then purchase using 1K GC and the balance using AP and get 15% of total.

          I can see partial payment has already been achieved but for a much lower amount. My fear is being stuck with a 1K Ebay GC if it isnt accepted for some reason.

            Can confirm that the giftcard and voucher works together, but for my case i can't purchase that cuz afterpay rejects my order…

            Well now i am stuck with $550 GC lol

        Does this mean that the balance of the discounted amount is effectively taken off the gift card payment, leaving you that discounted amount in your account as a 'gift card'?

        • crazyperpman on 19/08/2021 - 14:16

          I used the total amount of the GC so not sure how that would work as you need to pay some amount from AP to get the 15%.

        BNPL are a scam you're charging the merchant 4-6% transaction fee each sale presumably on top of visa/Mastercard merchant fees. Long run this is going to push prices up. Example 1, Uber eats more expensive than retail store to recover uber processing fees.

        • wantfreestuff on 19/08/2021 - 08:47

          This. The clause that merchants cannot pass on the 4-7% (plus 30c fixed) to AfterPay customers needs to go.

          +1

          Well no. If someone picks Afterpay there is just the Afterpay fee as they clear the transaction. Visa and mc are no longer part of the equation.

          Eg. Customer uses their Visa card for Afterpay
          Visa charges Afterpay the fee
          Afterpay absorbs the fee (which is part of the reason they charge the merchant 4-6pc).

            @csider: As a merchant I pay Visa/Mastercard 0.6% fee through CBA and I don't process millions every month. So 4-6% is pretty high for merchants as Afterpay would be paying less than what I am.

              @All Blacks NZ: Not here to start a debate. I was just clarifying the misconception there is some double dip happening. Regardless of how you feel about Afterpay, there's a reason all the usual payment companies (visa, mc, amex, paypal etc) are scrambling to offer their own BNPL is because companies like Afterpay are circumventing/tapping into their gravy train of fees.

      • B3 on 19/08/2021 - 08:20
        +12

        Cause their share price is through the stratosphere, based on 'growth'. Morons assume this growth will eventually result in vast and endless profits but to keep the share price sky high they need to maintain 'growth' at all costs.

        Nobody seems to care in the slightest about current profitability, that is something that will sort itself out.

        Amazing stuff.

          Afterpay lost $156m last year, 7 times more than it lost the year before but hey, look at the growth!

          https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-08-25/afterpay-zip-profit-f…

          And one of their competitors lost $652 million as it too is chases growth. How much growth is there to go around?

          Once you grow by giving money away you become reliant on giving even more away if you want to grow further. It is nearly always done as a short term emergency measure to briefly make the books look good in preparation for a sale, and that's what is going on here. Square is about to pay $39 billion for them so they are desperate to give the illusion of vast future growth and profits by any means possible and hey, it seems to be working but that is the reason for these wildly generous offers. Do not expect them to last long once reality kicks in and the new owners start to show some interest in eventually doing something other than lose money.

          Amazon at least had profitable divisions to fund the loss making ones.

      • JS1 on 19/08/2021 - 08:47

        Their penalties for late payments are greater than most credit interest rates due to the loan's short timeframe; more importantly they also charge a fee to the retailer (eBay) who passes that on to the seller. Generally selling stuff on eBay comes with a ~13% or so sale fee for the seller unless they have some exemption or agreement or whatever.

          The eBay fee for sellers was always a thing though. Until recently it was two fees one to eBay and one to PayPal, now with the new managed payments they’re forcing upon everyone those fees are rolled into one, and probably have risen but I don’t know if the rise has been the 4-6% Afterpay charges merchants direct however.

    • USER DC on 19/08/2021 - 09:28

      Just shows how this company doesn't give a F about you as a customer. They only care about you bring money to them and straight afterwards say good bye, as if you are Peice of trash to them. For you to use them ever again would mean you are agreeing them to use you as a garbage again.

      Personally, I've had no issues with using these Afterpay offers. In June / July I bought an iPad Pro M1 and MacBook Air M1 with no dramas.

      As I only used Afterpay to get the 15% discount I made the other 3 payments for each item immediately after.

      Turned out the MacBook Air M1 was going to be delayed so the vendor refunded me after a couple of weeks and the credit card payments immediately reversed at Afterpay.

      YMMV

    • Entheogen on 19/08/2021 - 07:35

      If you're applying for a loan then some include the afterpay credit (relatively small credit though). Apart from that there are no downsides. I've purchased through this method and then cleared the afterpay account as opposed to waiting for each installment.

    • PainToad on 19/08/2021 - 07:36
      +24

      If you try to get a loan from a more credible lender for a substantial purchase in the future, they may question why you needed to use a loan to make such a small purchase. Or they may question your financial maturity if you thought it was a good idea to go into debt over something as a frivolous as a video game console etc.

      Whilst Afterpay claim they don't do credit checks, they also reserve the right to do credit checks in the future according this article. https://mozo.com.au/fintech/love-afterpay-here-are-the-traps… Credit checks can affect your credit rating.

      There's also the ethical issue of supporting a style of lending that seems to target young and dumb people and lower socioeconomic groups who maybe desperate for finance.

      These are all my personal opinions and obviously not financial advice.

      I personal wouldn't touch them or any company like them.

              Why limit the number of lenders that want to deal with you for the sake of saving a few bucks. Again, just not worth it.

            @PainToad: The big banks will scrutinise all of your spending, not just afterpay. You'd better not have ever bought uber eats or paid for delivery of something you could have picked up, either, if you're genuinely that worried.

            I've already got a home loan and I'm not looking to take another one out anytime soon, but I don't lose sleep at night over my very limited use of afterpay for ebay discounts (maybe once or twice a year).

              Never have, never will. Another company I despise.

              paid for delivery of something you could have picked up

              Delivery is included in the final sale price for general online purchases. Lenders have no way of knowing from statements if the amount includes extra for shipping. So that argument makes no sense.

              @xyron: Exactly. If a $2000 Afterpay facility is going to affect someone's ability to get a loan. I'd suggest that loan is unaffordable for them and best avoided.

                @R4: You know when they assess the ability to repay a loan they assume you're maxxed out on all credit lines.

                It doesn't matter if afterpay or another cc, $2k of available credit is assessed as $2k debt

          • WhatWouldBiggieDo on 19/08/2021 - 11:04

            @PainToad: I couldn't disagree more. Lenders like people who borrow money, as long as they pay it back on time. If you didn't need to borrow money, you wouldn't be applying for a loan.

            Applying for loans and repaying them on time and closing them out quicker than you were meant to is a great way to build good credit. Often, people who do this will have a better credit rating than people who don't use finance.

              @WhatWouldBiggieDo: Funny story but ING wanted me to basically prove I didn't need to borrow money before they would lend it to me. Lending is not as loose as it used to be 5yrs ago!

        My credit rating went up after paying off an Afterpay plan (not that I am interested in a loan)

      • dmbminaret on 21/08/2021 - 12:09

        There's also the ethical issue of supporting a style of lending that seems to target young and dumb people and lower socioeconomic groups who maybe desperate for finance.

        I use it to pay for meals for two weeks while working away. It's more financially responsible to spread the payments over the time that I'm consuming the product than paying upfront, no?

    • kizzaaa on 19/08/2021 - 09:31

      No issues with Afterpay. That's exactly what I do — pay it off usually same day.

    • R4 on 19/08/2021 - 09:35

      No

      You agree for using a trash company that doesn't care about customers

    Fifteen? But last year… last year I had twenty percent.

      But some of the items are a bit different this year…

    • outlander on 19/08/2021 - 10:54

      You're upset? I'm still crying about the 25% cashback promo that I only used once but turned out to be valid for multiple transactions

    just login to afterpay when your done and force the remainining payments, then you don't have to deal with the payments coming out every week

    • maverickjohn on 19/08/2021 - 07:48

      That's what I do. I mainly use after pay for the promotion but I almost always pay it off immediately

      • zed264 on 19/08/2021 - 08:56

        Just curious, what are the reasons behind paying off immediately vs in 3 instalments over 6-8 weeks?

        I would've thought other than no descriptions on bank statement, paying in instalments with no interest would be better?

          Generally I'd agree, but for most of us on here I doubt we'd be buying things THAT expensive we can't afford to pay it one go after the discount. It's just a mental thing as well, rather pay it off than watch it come out weekly afterwards..
