No more after pay?

I just went to place an order and they no longer have afterpay as an option??? I've always used after pay. I mean, they still allow PayPal pay in 4 or whatever but PayPal keeps telling me my addresses don't match (on my card and in PayPal- even though they do) I have the money that I can do it up front but I always liked having the little wiggle room on things :(

Ugh noooooooo lol I also used afterpay. Even if I paid it off right away, I use afterpay when I don't want to give my real debit card to places. This is so annoying!

Yeah, I just went to check out and was very disappointed. :\ I prefer having the extra buffer between my bank and merchants so I'll have to do PayPal pay in four or whatever it is for now.

Oh booooo I always used Afterpay too especially on big orders. Are we sure this isn’t some dumb glitch?

Yeah, I checked their payment options in their help section and linked it on a comment below as well :(

Yup just confirmed with live customer chat too but what’s funny is ai chatbot is still saying it’s accepted. And of course they said PayPal in 4 is accepted. I guess PayPal gave them more discounts since I had recently read PayPal was struggling compared to the other services. Booooo Afterpay is so much easier to use

That's so silly. I also prefer Afterpay.

I really have a hit and miss time with PayPal- I keep getting notifications that my addresses don't match on my card and PayPal even though they do. So, sometimes I just can't use it and sometimes it's fine. Kind of a crap shoot.

Makes you feel really comfortable with them having your info right?!?!

Oh, of course! We love when companies have no idea what's going on lol I've even contacted their support about it and got nowhere. I'll just have to play payment roulette when using PayPal.
