Frequently Asked Questions

Patients often have questions about using Afterpay for dental care. Below, we’ve answered common queries to help you understand how it works and whether it suits your needs.

Can I use Afterpay for dental care straight after approval?

Once an Afterpay account is approved, it can generally be used at participating clinics, including Crown Holistic Dental, subject to Afterpay’s terms and spending limits.

Eligibility requirements apply, including being over 18 years of age, having an Australian residential address, and providing a valid debit or credit card. Each clinic may also set a maximum treatment amount for which Afterpay can be used, generally between $1,500 and $3,000. Patients should review Afterpay’s terms and their financial circumstances before deciding if it is the right option for them.

In summary:

  • Approval usually happens instantly during sign-up
  • Afterpay can be used immediately after approval
  • Payments are split into four equal instalments
  • The first instalment is due on the treatment day
  • Eligibility requirements apply (age, residency, valid card)
  • Maximum treatment amounts may apply

Afterpay’s standard repayment schedule is four equal, interest-free instalments, paid every two weeks. The first instalment is made on the day of treatment, with the remaining three deducted automatically.

While this schedule is fixed, you do have some flexibility. Payments can be made early through your Afterpay account, and in some cases, you may be able to adjust the due date by up to seven days. For larger purchases, Afterpay also offers a “Pay Monthly” option with longer terms, though the duration depends on the merchant and eligibility. Afterpay’s repayment schedule is structured, with limited options to adjust. Patients should review available options within their Afterpay account.

Afterpay may be suitable for your dental care if you consider the following factors:

  • Treatment cost:
    Ideal for medium-cost care such as check-ups, fillings, or minor procedures that can be split into four instalments.
  • Immediate treatment needs:
    Suitability depends on treatment cost, eligibility criteria, and your ability to meet scheduled repayments. Patients should review their financial situation before making a decision.
  • Budget management:
    Interest-free if instalments are paid on time, making it easier to manage expenses.
  • Clinic acceptance:
    Confirm your dental clinic, such as Crown Holistic Dental, accepts Afterpay before booking.
  • Eligibility requirements:
    Must be over 18, have an Australian residential address, and have a valid debit or credit card.
  • Repayment ability:
    Make sure you can commit to scheduled fortnightly payments to avoid late fees.

This structured approach helps you decide if Afterpay aligns with both your dental needs and financial circumstances.

Parents or guardians can use Afterpay to cover eligible dental treatments for children or family members at participating clinics, including Crown Holistic Dental. Costs are divided into four interest-free instalments, with the first payment due on the day of care and the remainder deducted automatically every two weeks.

When considering Afterpay for family appointments, keep in mind:

  • Eligibility:
    The account holder must be over 18 years old, have an Australian residential address, and provide a valid debit or credit card.
  • Responsibility:
    Parents or guardians manage payments on behalf of children.
  • Spending limits:
    Each transaction must fall within Afterpay’s maximum amount (commonly around $1,500 per treatment, though this may vary).
  • Account setup:
    An Afterpay account must be created and selected as the payment method at the time of treatment.

Parents or guardians may use Afterpay for eligible family appointments, subject to spending limits and Afterpay’s terms and conditions.

Yes, Afterpay can be used for both single dental treatments and longer-term care plans at participating clinics, including Crown Holistic Dental. Payments are divided into four interest-free instalments over six to eight weeks, with the first payment made on the day of treatment.

Patients commonly use Afterpay for:

  • One-off treatments:
    These encompass services like emergency care, check-ups, fillings, or cosmetic procedures that patients complete in a single visit.
  • Ongoing treatment plans:
    These cover multiple visits over time, for example, restorative or orthodontic care that requires consistent follow-up.
  • Payment structure:
    Patients make their first instalment on the day of treatment, and the remaining three instalments are automatically deducted fortnightly.
  • Cost limits:
    Each transaction must fall within Afterpay’s maximum spend, which is typically between $1,500 and $3,000, depending on the clinic.
  • Interest-free option:
    Patients do not incur any additional charges as long as repayments are made on time.

Afterpay can be applied to both single treatments and some ongoing care plans, provided costs fall within Afterpay’s spending limits.

Setting up Afterpay is straightforward and can be done before visiting Crown Holistic Dental. Here’s how:

  1. Download the Afterpay app or visit the website:
    Create an account by entering your details (name, email, phone number, and address) and linking a valid debit or credit card.
  2. Get approval:
    Afterpay typically confirms eligibility within minutes and assigns a spending limit for your account.
  3. Check clinic acceptance:
    Confirm that your dental clinic accepts Afterpay as a payment option before booking.
  4. Book your appointment:
    Once your account is active, you can book your dental visit.
  5. Use Afterpay at the clinic:
    On the day of treatment, select Afterpay as your payment method. You’ll pay the first instalment (25% of the total cost) at the appointment, with the remaining three payments deducted automatically every two weeks.

By setting up your account beforehand, you can ensure payments are processed smoothly and avoid delays on the day of treatment.

At Crown Holistic Dental, you can choose to split your dental costs by paying part upfront and using Afterpay for the remainder. The portion placed on Afterpay is then divided into four equal, interest-free instalments over six to eight weeks.

Things to keep in mind:

  • Payment flexibility:
    Afterpay can be applied to the portion you wish to finance, while the rest is paid directly upfront.
  • Spending limits:
    Maximum amounts usually range between $1,500 and $3,000 per transaction, depending on the clinic.
  • Instalment structure:
    25% of the financed amount is paid at the appointment, and the remaining three instalments are deducted fortnightly.
  • Interest-free terms –
    No added charges apply if repayments are made on time.

Afterpay may be applied to part of the cost, with the remainder paid upfront, subject to Afterpay’s terms and the clinic’s policies.

Afterpay can assist with spreading the cost of some larger dental treatment plans, but it does have limits. Standard Afterpay payments are divided into four equal instalments, made every two weeks. This typically covers transactions up to around $1,500, though limits may vary between clinics and depend on your individual Afterpay account.

For new users, initial spending limits are often lower (around $500–$600) but may increase with responsible repayment over time. For treatment plans that exceed Afterpay’s limits or extend over several months, patients may need to divide costs across multiple transactions or consider other payment plan options. For larger treatment plans exceeding Afterpay’s limits, patients may need alternative payment options. Suitability depends on Afterpay’s criteria and repayment capacity.

Afterpay can be used for future dental visits at Crown Holistic Dental, provided your account is active and the cost fits within your spending limit. Afterpay sets this limit based on factors such as account history, repayment behaviour, and responsible use over time.

Key things to know:

  • Spending limits:
    First-time users may start with around $500–$600, which can increase with timely repayments.
  • Repayment structure:
    Each treatment is split into four equal, interest-free instalments, paid fortnightly.
  • Repeat use:
    Afterpay can be applied for multiple appointments, as long as your account limit allows.
  • Managing payments:
    Transactions and repayment schedules can be tracked easily through the Afterpay app or website.
  • Alternative options:
    If your limit does not cover the full cost, your dentist may suggest other payment arrangements.

Afterpay may be used for future appointments if the account remains active and within the spending limit set by Afterpay.

There isn’t a set limit on the number of dental treatments you can use Afterpay for. Instead, your ability to access it depends on the spending limit assigned to your account. This limit influences how much treatment cost can be financed at a time.

Things to keep in mind:

  • Starting limit:
    New accounts often begin with around $500–$600.
  • Limit growth:
    Responsible, on-time repayments can increase your spending capacity over time.
  • Per transaction:
    Each treatment or appointment must fit within your available Afterpay limit.
  • Ongoing use:
    You can use Afterpay multiple times across different treatments, provided your account remains in good standing.
  • Alternatives:
    If a treatment cost exceeds your limit, your dentist may suggest an alternative payment plan.

There is no set limit on the number of treatments, but use depends on Afterpay’s spending cap and responsible account use.
