How does Afterpay work?

1. Simply select Pay by Afterpay as your payment option at checkout.
2. Returning customers only need to confirm the order to complete the purchase.
3. New customers can sign up at checkout and start using Afterpay today.
4. Your order is processed immediately and your payment schedule is established.
5. Afterpay splits your payments over four equal instalments due every fortnight. Nominate the card you want to use and automatic payments are scheduled for you.

Please note that Afterpay cannot be used to purchase gift cards.

Who can use Afterpay?

Afterpay is available to any individuals that live in Australia or New Zealand and are at least 18 years old. However, before you can use Afterpay you need to provide your full name, residential address, email address and your mobile number for the credit check/verification. You will also need to provide your Australian or NZ debit or credit card details so that the amounts can be deducted for your purchase.

Does Afterpay have a spend limit?

Afterpay does not approve 100% of orders, as they are committed to ensuring they support responsible spending.

When determining which orders to approve, their automated system considers a number of different factors. As an example, the longer you have been a customer with Afterpay and the more orders you have successfully repaid, the more likely you will be able to spend more. Their maximum spend limit is $2000.

Can I use Afterpay to purchase sale items?

Yes, you can, but please be aware, if you wish to return the item, all Sale items are only eligible for store credit. Città will credit you the full amount for your return, but you will need to continue to complete your Afterpay payments for the item directly with Afterpay.

How do I return my order?

Our standard returns policy applies. Once the item has been received by us, we refund the full amount to Afterpay and if applicable all future payments for that order will be cancelled. If you have already made one or more payments, the instalments paid will be refunded to the credit/debit card that you used to place the order. Once notified by us, Afterbuy will process the refund immediately and send you an email to confirm that the refund has been applied. The bank may take 5-7 business days to process this amount.

Are there any other fees?

If you have not made the payment before the due date, and the automatic payment fails, you have until 11pm (AEDT in the summer months and AEST in the winter months) the following day to make payment. After 11pm the following day, if that payment has not been made, you will incur a late payment fee of $10 and a further late fee of $7 if the payment is not made within 7 days (as stated in the Afterpay Terms).
