Why We Offer PayPal Pay in 4 Instead of Afterpay
We get asked about Afterpay all the time, so we thought it was time to clear things up! While we don’t offer Afterpay, we do have something just as good—if not better—PayPal’s Pay in 4.
If you’ve ever wanted to grab one of our silky-soft bamboo pieces but pay for it later, Pay in 4 lets you split your payment into four equal installments, with no interest and no late fees (yep, you read that right).
What Is PayPal Pay in 4?
It’s a buy now, pay later (BNPL) service that allows you to split the cost of your purchase into four equal payments. You pay the first installment at checkout, and the remaining three are automatically deducted every two weeks. This means you can get your hands on your new bamboo goodies right away, without having to pay the full amount upfront.
We always aim to ship your order within 24 hours (or the same day if you order before midday), so you won’t be waiting long!
Who Can Use Pay in 4?
- Available to Australian residents with a PayPal account in good standing
- Eligible for purchases between $30 and $1,500
- Some transactions (like gambling and money transfers) aren’t eligible
How to Use It
- Choose PayPal at checkout
- Select ‘Pay in 4’ and complete your purchase
- Make your first payment, and the rest will be automatically deducted every two weeks
If you don’t have a PayPal account, signing up is quick and free!
Why We Prefer Pay in 4 Over Afterpay
We know Afterpay is super popular, but Pay in 4 has a major advantage—no late fees. If you ever miss a payment with Afterpay, you’re hit with a $10 late fee, plus another $7 if you’re still overdue after seven days. PayPal, on the other hand, simply works with you to arrange a repayment.
Plus, with PayPal, you get all their buyer protection benefits, so your purchases are extra secure.
A Smart Approach to BNPL
BNPL services can be great if used wisely. Before choosing to ‘buy now, pay later,’ ask yourself:
"Can I afford to pay this off within the given timeframe?"
If the answer is no, waiting a little longer might be the smarter move. We want you to enjoy your bamboo essentials stress-free!
