• How will my refund work if I have paid with After Pay?

  Please kindly note once a refund has been processed to your After Pay account, AfterPay will then contact you to confirm the refund amount depending on the amount of payments you have made. For example, if you have only paid 2 instalments of your total order value, After Pay will only refund the partial amount paid with them, and then cancel the remaining outstanding amount. This may mean that you would receive a partial refund of your total order value as only that amount was captured from your linked credit card up to the refund date.
