Review of the Clearpay, Buy now pay later:

I have been using Clearpay for 2 years now and have found it a useful way to budget my finances . However please note the payback period is 4 WEEKS and NOT 6 WEEKS as it’s claimed on this site . The only problem I ran into was my pay day being changed as my employment changed, this having to move my payments (x3) to a new day , just 2 days. I was locked out of my account until all my purchases were paid off which I thought was extremely punitive for 2 days ? I’ve no doubt this has happened to many others as life and work life isn’t always static. However admin staff were helpful in explaining why they do this and it is to protect both the app and the customer from getting into unmanageable debt , the also slowly increase your spending power which again is a safeguard what ever way you look at it ? It would be great if there was a 6 week option but that’s not available in the U.K. and I’ve found using Clearpay for EBay absolutely impossible, with EBay UK stating” we do not accept Clearpay” Likewise purchasing from Amazon can also be very tricky at times. There are many stores advertised as accepting Clearpay but at checkout do not accept Clearpay only Afterpay , which i understand is Clearpays big sister and used in USA & Australia. It would be fantastic to have an actual card option for those emergency situations where there’s an unexpected purchase hits you right in the middle of the month ? E.G a new tyre or that trip to the vet ? Overall in these times I have found it a very useful budgeting tool , the App helps you keep a good track on your spending . The Rewards I have to admit are a bit naff , not really rewards but an introduction into purchasing something you don’t need or want but some good deals on Apple products. Getting a discount voucher for more everyday purchases would be more beneficial. Clearpay has become an integral part of my budgeting now but as mentioned above still would like it even better if there was a 6 week payment option and if stores that accept Afterpay could accept Clearpay is the same company?
