Advanced Payment Options

Recommended Posts

Site URL: https://outlettenyc.com/

We are very satisfied using Square Space for our website however the fact that there is not the option to add at least one of the very popular payment options, Quadpay, Afterpay, Affirm or Klarna is very upsetting. We know as a fact that these payment options will increase our business by making purchases more accessible to our customers. If the other platform is able to incorporate them why cant Squarespace? I feel like we are losing revenue as a result.

Thank you.

We just received the email today that Stripe "Afterpay" is now integrated and available. However, the fees fall on the SELLER! Not the customer. Jumping from 3% to 6% is completely unmanageable for a small business. My understanding is that PayPal's "pay in 4" option charges the customer for for the line of credit, not the retailer. Which makes sense. 

Can anyone add to this?

Stripe does typically charge 6% for Afterpay transactions, plus a fixed fee. Terms can vary by country though.

It is a shame that Squarespace hasn't embraced PayPal's suite of financing solutions. PayPal charges also vary according to the country but in the UK, there is no charge for Pay in 3. The store owner pays the usual PayPal charges, for example 2.9% + international % charge + fixed fee.
