Foot Locker is now taking Afterpay, which is a more budget-friendly option for shoppers. However, if you’re still unsure about Woolworth, it’s only in Australia where customers can use Afterpay to buy groceries.
And what is Afterpay?
Afterpay is a new Australian-based “buy now, pay later” service that aims to help people spend responsibly without incurring interest, fees, or extended debt. This international company allows customers access to things they want while maintaining financial wellness and control in their online and in-store purchases. Afterpay is a new way to save money and control your spending.
How does it work?
Customers can go online or in-store (of any retailer) but must pick Afterpay as their payment method at checkout. If they went to the former, their purchases will be delivered, and if it is the latter, their Afterpay Card will use to pay 25% of the bill at checkout. The remaining 75% will be paid every two weeks from a debit card.

Apple Pay is a “contactless payment technology” that allows customers to pay using their device instead of their bank card.
