Checking Eligibility

In order to enable Afterpay you must meet the eligibility criteria set out by Stripe. Dazzly does not have the final say on your eligibility, nor does Afterpay, it is determined solely by Stripe. The Merchant Category Code (MCC) associated with your Stripe account is the most important determinant of your eligibility. It is possible to change this code but only Stripe can do this. If you have any further questions concerning eligibility then please direct them to Stripe.
Your customers can check out with Afterpay if:
- You both reside in the same country
- The customer is under the Afterpay credit limit
- Afterpay's eligibility requirements are met by the customer
- The customer's total order does not exceed their country's spending limit but is also greater than one dollar
