How long does Afterpay approval take?

[emaboz]

Hi,

Does anyone know how long afterpay can take to review your application and approve it? It says it would take 2-3 days however it's been 5 days and I have customers waiting for it to be approved so wondering the max time it would take so I can let them know.

Thanks,

Ema

Hey there, @emaboz. Thanks for taking the time to come to the Shopify Community with your question around Afterpay. It's nice to meet you!

As I'm a Shopify employee, I can't comment too much on what goes on over at Afterpay. However, this weekend is a long weekend for many folks, so I would be confident in suggesting that the long weekend would be why you haven't heard back yet from them regarding your application. I suspect you'll be hearing from them once the weekend is over!

Do you mind me asking about why you're looking to use Afterpay in your store? Are you looking to offer your customers a partial payment solution? I'd love to know more about your goals - I may be able to make some helpful suggestions!
