Postpay is a payment solution that allows customers to ‘buy now, pay later’ seamlessly with absolutely zero interest and no fees
Select Postpay on checkout at one of our partner retailers and we split your total purchase into three equal instalments. The first instalment (33%) is processed immediately and the merchant ships your purchase to you as normal, so you can enjoy now and pay later.
The remaining two instalments are due every month thereafter. Absolutely zero fees are charged as long as all repayments are processed successfully on time. So in short, at the end of the two months you only pay for what you ordered!
If you want to pay off your instalments early, you can do so at absolutely no extra cost.
We have a number of great retail merchant partners where you can buy now and pay later, have a look at our store directory for a full list. If you see a store that doesn’t have Postpay, feel free to reach out and ask if they can add Postpay - we’ve seen a lot of success when customers reach out directly!
To use Postpay, you must be over 18 years old and have a valid Emirates ID Card and UAE mobile number
To sign up to Postpay is to select Postpay as your checkout method at one of our partner retailers (for a full list click here). Once you have selected to Postpay simply follow the steps to checkout and you will have an account linked to your mobile phone and Emirates ID / National ID number.
We call this a partial refund, and we have your back. Once you return the items to the store the retailer will either issue you a store credit or payment refund.
Either way, the retailer will notify us of the refund, and we will automatically update the instalment plan by deducting the refunded amount from the third instalment in reverse. If the refund amount exceeds the total due, then we will refund you the outstanding balance to the payment method linked to that instalment. Otherwise, your upcoming payments will continue to be collected until the remaining balance is paid off. You can see all relevant details (per instalment) on the customer dashboard in the purchases section.
