Afterpay

Buy Now, Pay Later

Founded in 2014 in Sydney, Australia, Afterpay has millions of global customers and hundreds of thousands of merchant partners.

Integrated within over 1,600 pharmacies in Australia already, Afterpay’s product helps patients break up the cost of their medication or pharmacy goods in four instalments, without incurring interest. Making access to healthcare for patients available when they need it, not just when they can afford it.

This is particularly important as more and more consumers are opting to pay with debit vs credit, as seen in Afterpay’s data, with over 90% of customers linking their debit card to their Afterpay account. Of this cohort, 78% would want to pay with Afterpay in pharmacy*.

Afterpay’s business model is completely free for customers who pay on time – helping people spend responsibly without incurring interest, fees or extended debt.

Afterpay is about providing families and singles in the community with a choice in how and when they pay for their pharmacy purchases, in a way that works with their overall budget. 

As a merchant, your pharmacy is paid upfront for the transaction, while still removing the economic barriers to help patients manage their cash flow. You can also benefit from reduced fraud risk, lower return rates and a customer-first payments solution.

Afterpay is deeply committed to delivering positive outcomes for customers and shares a vision of a more accessible and sustainable world. Afterpay’s mission is to power an economy in which everyone wins.

All Guild Members are now able to offer Australia’s most used and preferred Buy Now Pay Later payments platform through a strategic partnership that will help members grow their business and benefit from a special members’ rate.
