Growing your business with Afterpay
"The partnership has been vital to HBX in terms of providing accessibility to customers, with the hope that it will expand our customer base. That's really important," Nguyen says. "And it also helps us on the publishing side because Afterpay has been such a great partner in working with us and supporting some fun content initiatives that drive traffic to HBX."
"A lot of the affiliate programs are lower-end coupon sites, but with Afterpay on the affiliate end, you're talking about a more affluent audience. So it's the right customer, and they're more likely to be incremental because of where they're coming from."
"Sustainable options cost more money up front but they are designed to last, so giving someone the option to invest in something they can use for a long time and being able to spread that burden over a few months is really important to us. It's definitely allowed us to reach a broader demographic."
How does Afterpay work for businesses?
Your customer checks out with Afterpay and decides to split their purchase into 4 interest-free installments over 6 weeks or flexible monthly installments over 3, 6, 12, or 24 months. Your business receives the full purchase amount upfront within 5 business days, minus a transaction fee. You can keep track of all payments and orders in the Afterpay Business Hub.
