Afterpay is free - for you that is!  Retailers, like Little Train Shop, cover the costs associated with this payment option.  However, a late fee may be applied if you fail to make your instalments on time. 

WHEN DO I MAKE MY FIRST PAYMENT?
New Afterpay customers or orders totalling more than $2000(AUD) are required to make the first payment at the time of checkout, which is 25% of the order total.  If you have had your Afterpay account in good standing and for a certain period of time, your first instalment may be in 14 days time.

Absolutely.  Simply log into the mobile phone app or your account online and follow the steps to make additional payments to your Afterpay orders. 

HOW MUCH CAN I SPEND WITH AFTERPAY?
There is no specific way to find your available balance.  However, if you use the mobile phone app and generate an in-store barcode, this will provide you with your available maximum limit.  This should only be used as a reference only.

AFTERPAY DECLINED MY ORDER - WHY IS THIS?
This could be for many reasons and Afterpay may not always disclose the reason why.  Some common examples are below: insufficient Afterpay available credit, behind on Afterpay payments, Debit/Credit Card expiring within the next 2 months or has a block loaded on the card, a barcode was generated within the last 30 minutes and may have exceeded your borrowing capacity (in this case, wait until it expires).
