A lot of people wonder about the various payment methods that are accepted by Depop, which works and which doesn’t.
A few are very curious to know if Afterpay payment method can be used on the peer-to-peer shopping app, Depop.
The Depop is a website where you can shop and sell pre-loved fashion items, so basically you can spend money, and make serious money using the website; you just have to grow your Depop followers organically.
Moving on, a vast majority of payment providers can be used to pay for an item on Depop, we still want to know the fate of Afterpay on the site.
Already, PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and card payments can be used on Depop, so it might be resourceful to find out if you can use Afterpay too.
Here is everything we know about using Afterpay as a payment method on the Depop website.
Can You Use Afterpay On Depop?
If you are wondering if you can use Afterpay to checkout or receive earnings on Depop, the short answer is no you cannot.
As of July 2019, Depop policy has stated that you will not be able to use Afterpay during checkout or even for receiving payment as a Depop seller.
Of course, this can be frustrating especially if Afterpay is what you use to pay for everything online.
However, there are a ton of alternative payment methods that you can use on Depop besides Afterpay, they include:
- Card payments (credit or debit),
- Apple Pay,
- Google Pay,
- Zip Pay (perfect alternative to Afterpay), and
- PayPal (Depop’s primary payment provider)
All these payment methods work perfectly for buying and selling on the shopping website.
Conclusion
Depop is an online shopping website that is primarily focused on pre-loved or pre-used fashion items.
“Pre-loved or pre-used fashion items” in this context means clothes, and accessories that have been fairly used by someone else and there are mainly women-focused.
These “Pre-loved or pre-used fashion items” on Depop are extensively well-taken and neatly laundered before being listed for sale by the original owner so you don’t have to worry about wasting your money on items you may end up hating.
Depop has a wide range of payment methods for checkout as any other e-commerce online store, with PayPal being the primary payment provider, however, Afterpay isn’t one of them.
So if you usually pay and receive payments using the Afterpay payment provider, you have to consider transferring your funds (Ex. Afterpay to Apple Pay) to any of the available payment providers accepted on Depop, as long as it works in your country.
However, if you really must use Afterpay on Depop, Zip Pay is a great alternative to it and it is currently accepted for checkout on the website.
