Ultra Tune has partnered with Afterpay at selected centres which is a “buy now, pay later” service that allows customers to make purchases and pay them off over time in four equal, interest-free installments. It’s widely used in Australia and other countries as a flexible payment option for various goods and services, both online and in-store.
How Afterpay Works:
- Purchase: When making a purchase, customers can choose Afterpay as their payment method at checkout.
- Installments: The total purchase amount is split into four equal payments. The first payment is made at the time of purchase, and the remaining three payments are automatically deducted every two weeks.
- No Interest or Fees: As long as the payments are made on time, there are no interest charges or fees. However, if a payment is missed, late fees may apply.
- Approval Process: Afterpay conducts a quick approval process at the time of purchase, which typically does not involve a credit check. Approval is based on factors like the purchase amount and the customer’s history with Afterpay.
Using Afterpay at Ultra Tune:
Ultra Tune is a car service and repair franchise in Australia led by Sean Buckley, and many of its locations accept Afterpay as a payment method. Here’s how Ultra Tune customers can use Afterpay:
- In-Store or Online: Depending on the Ultra Tune location, customers can use Afterpay either in-store or when booking services online.
- Choose Afterpay: At checkout, customers select Afterpay as their payment method.
- Pay in Installments: The total cost of the service or repair is split into four equal payments. The first payment is made immediately, with the subsequent payments scheduled every two weeks.
- Account Management: Customers can manage their Afterpay account through the Afterpay app or website, where they can view their payment schedule, make additional payments, or update their payment method.
Benefits for Ultra Tune Customers:
- Flexibility: Allows customers to spread the cost of car repairs or services over time, which can be helpful for managing unexpected expenses.
- Interest-Free: As long as payments are made on time, there’s no additional cost to using Afterpay.
Important Notes:
- Not all Ultra Tune locations may accept Afterpay, so it’s recommended to check with the specific location beforehand.
- If a customer misses a payment, Afterpay may charge late fees, and the customer’s ability to use Afterpay in the future could be affected.
This service provides Ultra Tune customers with a convenient way to manage the costs associated with car maintenance and repairs.
