Your Financing Options
Approval / Credit Check
Klarna:
Klarna provides three (3) different plan options:
- Installment & Pay in 30 Days: Klarna may perform a soft credit check as part of the application process. This type of check will not impact your credit score or show up as a hard inquiry on your credit report. However, if you're interested in one of their financing options, a full credit check will be performed during which Klarna will contact the credit bureaus. This will show up as an inquiry on your credit report. Monthly financing through a Klarna credit account is issued by WebBank, member FDIC.
- Klarna Financing: With the financing option, there is a hard credit inquiry when the customer applies that will appear on their credit report as a request for credit.
Sezzle:
Sezzle complete what’s known as a “soft check,” which means they take a look at your credit score as part of our risk check, but this doesn’t have an impact on your credit score. They use this information to help verify your identity, minimize fraud risk, and approve you for Sezzle!
Afterpay:
No credit check. Afterpay does not approve 100% of orders. They are committed in ensuring responsible spending.
When determining which orders to approve, they consider a number of different factors. As an example, the longer you have been a shopper using Afterpay and the more orders you have successfully repaid, the more likely you will be able to spend more.
Things to consider
- Are there sufficient funds on your card (generally they look to see the first instalment amount available to spend).
- Length of time you have been using Afterpay (tighter in the first 6 weeks).
- Amount you have to repay, it may help to pay some off (not a guarantee).
- The value of the order you are trying to place, it may help to reduce the value of your shopping cart (not a guarantee).
- The number of orders you currently have 'open' with them (not a guarantee).
Katapult:
Katapult’s lease limits vary for each customer. When pre-approved, the customer will be able to view their available lease limit by logging into their Katapult account on www.Katapult.com.

Your first reschedule on an order is always free! However, if you need to reschedule your payments again, a $5 fee will be charged. Should your payment fail on the day it was scheduled, your account may be suspended and a $10 failed payment fee will be applied on that installment. However, if you resolve the payment within 48 hours of it failing, they'll automatically waive your fee! Otherwise, the fee will be charged alongside the installment on the new due date. Once the payment and fee are resolved, you will again be able to use your account to make new purchases. They charge us an initial payment processing fee of 6% + 30¢ per transaction, and for every processed refunds, Sezzle shall retain their original payment processing fee without any additional charges.
