How and when credit would be provided. Flex will be visible in your app after we sign the agreement.
To use Flex, you’ll need to have enough available credit limit to cover the
full cost of the transaction, not including any interest you might owe.
This information in this section below only applies to using your virtual Flex
card and not if you flex a transaction up to 2 weeks later.
How does the virtual Flex card work?
You’ll need to have enough money in your current account to cover at least
the first minimum instalment, for the payment to go through. That’s because
we take the first instalment straight away when the plan is selected. We
calculate this by assuming the lowest first minimum instalment you could
make, which is the transaction cost divided by 12, not including interest.
The duration of the credit agreement. This agreement will have no fixed duration and will continue until you or we
end it.
Monthly payments
After your first instalment, we’ll take one monthly payment on your chosen
payment date each month, which covers all of your instalment plans.
Each month you’ll need to make at least the minimum payment. This is
calculated by:
You can also choose to make overpayments. For example, you might choose
to pay over a shorter period than the maximum available for a transaction.
We’ll first try and collect the overpayment but if we can’t, we’ll try and
collect the minimum payment 7 days after the payment due date.
You can change your payment amount at any time, as long as it’s at least the
minimum payment.
As soon as you make a payment, you’ll free up more of your credit limit
which you can use for other transactions.
Your repayments will pay off what you owe in the Monthly payments
following order.
We’ll allocate your payments according to the instalment amount you’ve
selected for each instalment plan.
If you’re behind on your Flex payments, we’ll allocate any payments towards
your arrears, starting with the oldest arrears first.
If you aren’t behind on your Flex payments and pay more than the monthly
payment, you may be able to choose how to allocate it in the app. If not,
we’ll allocate it to the instalment plan with the highest interest rate first (and
the next highest, and so on). If all of your instalment plans have the same
rate of interest, we’ll allocate your payment to the oldest instalment plan
first (and then the next oldest and so on).
If you pay more than the monthly payment, this won’t change the amount
you have to pay each month and you’ll still need to make your next monthly
payment. These extra payments will usually be allocated to the end of your
selected plan – this means an extra payment might change the amount of
your final instalment and the number of instalments you have to make on
the plan the payment is allocated to.
We might give you the option of choosing whether the payment is allocated
to the next monthly payment. If we give you that option, we’ll tell you about
it in the app.

Costs in the case of late payments. There are no charges for late or missed payments. We’ll charge interest on
your Flex balance at the rate above. We don’t charge interest on interest, or
interest on late payments.
However, if you miss payments, we’ll start charging the standard rate of
interest after 7 days. This means you’ll lose the benefit of any Promotions
you have in place.
