The instalments for this purchase will run for the duration of the offered interest free period, a minimum of 3 months unless otherwise specified. If you have multiple purchases being repaid through instalments, these will be bundled into one easy to maintain recurring repayment.
Instalments can be switched off at any time, doing so will cancel any upcoming instalment repayment, and stop any future purchase from automatically being split into equal instalments.
Without instalments, you can repay your purchase(s) at your own pace by setting a scheduled amount and frequency via the ‘Flex’ option. However, this must be at a rate no less than the contractual monthly minimum, as stated in the account statement.

Any balance outstanding at the expiry of the interest free period will be charged at the applicable variable rate. The applicable standard variable rate is 25.9% per annum, as at 1 June 2023.
