Afterpay On‑Site Messaging

I'm in Canada so maybe it works here? Not sure why people are having issues with the app. It's extremely basic but I was able to add it under my price on product pages to show customers they can pay in installments and also as a payment badge icon at the footer of our site. I wasn't able to add it to my cart page but maybe it's something to do with another app we're using. I'm not a developer, I'm a just 1 woman running her own business and wearing all the hats, so this was very user friendly and quick to apply. Either way, it seems to work and shows up where I need it. Also make sure you're registered with Afterpay and can accept payments with them before downloading this app, otherwise I believe it would be useless. Good luck!
App is garbage and does not do anything. I feel like its been discontinued.
Doesn't recognise Footer ingestion, uninstalled and used manual snippet instalation insted
Already had afterpay installed as a payment method and this was simple to add to the products page to show the Afterpay payments price.
This is terrible, I cannot acess the funds from orders made on my store, I can't get in conact with a live person just bots that can't seem to help me. I can no longer log in to my account. I need some one to urgently contact me in reference to this matter.
Driving myself absolutely crazy with Afterpay. This app is just not it. Afterpay messaging doesn't change with variant products. When I ask Afterpay for help, they tell me to get a web developer to code the system correctly. The directions on their website merchant page won't even allow the code to be inputted, the directions of what to change are just simply unhelpful. I am so disappointed. I added afterpay to my website 6 years ago and it was such a simple process. Now it is a nightmare, with no help.
No, not yet - this one is undercooked and not ready. Support via the website is also full of bots who just want to ask you for your ID instead of fixing a problem. Awaiting a msg from the Dev team via support in Shopify. Either they get it right or customers won't use them as a preference.
The Afterpay on-site messaging app doesn't work and the block is invisible so we had to get our developer to add a custom liquid code under the price block for it to finally show on the site. Make sure you add the custom liquid in the correct market you signed up for (i.e. US, CA etc) otherwise it will not work. One advice is to ensure your default currency and primary market match the account you applied for. Since we're based in Canada and the majority of our customers are from the United States, we set our default currency to USD and had to apply and get approved for a US merchant account, installed the Afterpay US (NEW) app and utilize our credentials for the US account. If you have separate US and CA Afterpay Merchant accounts, you must have separate Shopify stores to activate Afterpay using each merchant credentials. If you do not have separate stores and is utilizing Shopify's Market feature, it will not work.
This app does exactly what it promises — no fluff. The setup was super straightforward with clear instructions, and it seamlessly added Afterpay messaging to both our product and cart pages. It now clearly shows customers they can shop with Afterpay, which helps drive conversions. Highly recommend for any store offering Afterpay!
The messaging is just that, a message, it shows customers on the product page and the checkout page that its available, the after pay button turns up after they click checkout on my shopify store. If you click on the green messaging button it just gives the shopper the run down, it doesn't take them to pay via after pay. So i followed the video and it showed up straight away. The reviews really freaked me out I didn't know what was going on! It works anyway so nothing to complain about from me..
Straight up doesn't work. The app block does not load at all and just stays empty/blank. Support will tell you to refer to the extremely basic installation instructions, which obviously wouldn't help if the app itself does not function at all.
Useless App & Non-Existent Support! This app does not work at all. We followed the official Afterpay On-Site Messaging Implementation Guide exactly as instructed, yet the message blocks either remained invisible or empty. We tested multiple Shopify themes (including default, unmodified ones), and the messaging never appeared. Inspecting the page source confirmed that the Afterpay script loaded, but the generated block was 0 in size—completely non-functional. The official support was unhelpful and dismissive, repeatedly linking us to the same useless documentation instead of addressing the technical issue. After weeks of back-and-forth emails, no resolution was provided. Given that Afterpay’s own merchant support team set up our account incorrectly, we’re not surprised their app is just as broken. Avoid wasting your time with this app—it simply does not work, and Afterpay’s support does not care.
Works exactly as it is supposed to - very simple to get the Afterpay messaging on the product page.
App does not work. I filled out the form for help and when they get back to me they want me to fill out an onboarding form just loops back to my status page for setting up the payment system. Does this payment system even work?
Horrible Customer Service, No Response! Absolutely terrible experience with Afterpay. I’ve been trying to contact them for hours with no response whatsoever. I sent an email over many hours ago, and still nothing—no reply, no support, nothing. Their customer service is nonexistent. A company this big should have basic communication, but this is a complete failure. If you ever need help, good luck getting a response! Utter disappointment.
I'm with the Dyslexic Australian. This was very easy to set up.
Clear and concise instructions. Very easy to setup. Does what it says on the box.
Do Not Use this!! The afterpay team offers zero support to this app, very disappointed. I switched to other app.
So easy to install... don't know what the other reviews are talking about!!
Messaging was straightforward to install when following the instructions. Unsure if all of the people having issues are on an incompatible theme, but this worked fine for me!
Doesn’t work at all ! I’ve lost all my time with them and nothing happened couldn’t even Conect to my store and all the code and links doest’t work
The first step is to connect my account. When I access the link though, it takes me to a page where you apply for an Afterpay merchant account despite logging in with an email that is linked to an already-existing Afterpay merchant account.
Just doesn't work. Doesn't connect, doesn't show. Doesn't do anything.
Doesn’t work half the time and no one will email back. It’s been a few weeks now of “processing “
This APP worked excellently and solved my problem in 5 minutes. Similar to what the earlier 5-star reviewer said, this APP is for helping you display Afterpay as a payment option on your product listing page so your customers know you offer Afterpay. The app delivers on what it promises. If you want your customers to know you offer Afterpay as a payment option in addition to ShopPay, this is the app you need.
It's a waste of time, the app doesn't work. Technology is so advanced that even new apps are working flawlessly on Shopify themes but a company of such a big stature couldn't afford to fix their app.
Doesn't work for my store. Going round in circles with support for 6 months. "We can confirm that your account is currently undergoing compliance checks. A member of our Compliance Team will be in contact shortly with the next steps via a separate email thread. This case will be closed as you have reached out to the post-integration technical support." "We've closed this support request. Your request was not able to be resolved today."
App was working fine before now it has completely stopped. Shopify is warning companies to remove it. Im going to wait for an email response afterpay or a phone call before giving up about what I should do.
Worked really well after watching the video. Thank you.
my status has been stuck on the "2-3 day review" for over three weeks. I have reached out to Afterpay MULTIPLE times, yet no one has helped me resolve this. WORST service I have ever had!
Thee worst went through the entire process my customers started using just to find out my shop didn't get approved after my customer used afterpay. No notice was sent to me. No reason of denial when their are a lot of hair company's using them. Now I have to remove all of this off my website. There is no phone call or help desk to help you. All website help is not helpful, people that email you don't help you. This is a joke. My customers begged for afterpay... never again. No longer will use for myself either worst experience ever now I got to get the money they do have smh
i reside in canada and i can’t take afterpay payments from the U.S even though that’s where most of my sales come from… doesn’t make sense
Having a tough time getting the payment button to show in my checkout. I didn't have this problem before.

Thanks for reaching out. It appears you were able to contact our support team and are assisting you to get Afterpay up and running.
It is very difficult to reach anyone in customer service, I've sent multiple help tickets and no response. Why is there no customer service number? I need to speak with someone, as soon as possible.

AfterPay as a service is fine. This app is garbage. I updated my theme and tried to get AfterPay info back on my site, this app fails after the first 2 steps in the set-up. Support is non-existent.

Hi there, We are so sorry that this app wasn't working out for you and we are determine to make sure things are right. I've sent you an email asking for more details, please respond so we can get to the bottom of this. Thanks! Leah
Increase store sales. Takes 2-4 days for funds to be sent to your bank. Afterpay will also put you on their Afterpay App. I use Afterpay and Shop Pay to give my customer more options.

Thank you for your review! We're glad we can help you grow your business and deliver your funds in a transparent and timely manner.
I have tried to get this app up and running several times with no success. I get an email to login, then it says compliance review is still reviewing, even though i get emails to say review is completed and ready to install. until afterpay get their install / integration sorted I will give it a miss.

We're sorry to hear you're having issues with our app. I've checked in with our technical support team and it appears we are working with you on getting this resolved. We will review your feedback to improve our communications during the review process.
The section where it's supposed to load the product page is simply a white screen. I've tried to contact you guys in various ways already even your ticketing system to no avail. Your team helped us install it and it just stopped working. Please send me an email to help fix it soon. Thanks

Terrible service. The app asked me to install and I did all the way to set up to messaging setup and add payment method it told me complete. Then to double check, i sent an email to check as when I tried to log into my afterpay account it said i didn't have one. contacted Afterpay got one reply saying they would look into it and then Nothing despite 5 or 6 emails

Hi there, we are truly sorry about the interruption. Shopify 2.0 themes rolled out to some merchants earlier than we expected. As of yesterday, our app is compatible with 2.0 themes. Please do give us another chance and let our app help you with marketing Afterpay!
We've been with Afterpay for 2 years now. First year - no tax invoice form and no response from the company. This year a tax form was sent out and it was COMPLETELY INACCURATE! *update 3/21* Afterpay had a representative reach out to me, however, they seemed a bit more interested in having me update their app and less interested in the tax form concerns.

Hi there, thank for being a part of Afterpay and growing your business with us. I just connected you and the team who managed tax invoice forms over email - let get to the bottom of this together.
horrible I am not happy with this service at all! There is no chat option at all. No support! I am looking to cancel this asap!

Hi. Are you talking about chat service for getting an Afterpay merchant account or for Afterpay Attract (onsite messaging)? We do have chat for this onsite messaging app, but not for afterpay.com. Either way, we are eager to assist you. Can you send me an email to leah.dong@afterpay.com? I'll make sure to find the right person to help.
We've used After Pay for several years as a payment option. The app install was very easy and seamless. Keep in mind that I was already an approved merchant so I just had to uninstall old code on my store and install this app--it was super easy. After Pay has always been supportive of my business and has collaborated with me in the past. The customer service is great and I feel they are supportive in trying to help their merchants get sales and build brand awareness through the campaigns they launch.

We are happy to have you as a part of the Afterpay family and glad to hear our on-site messaging app is helpful!
We have a niche very small business and reached out to this company ahead of applying to ask questions about their approval process. We received a reply that completely ignored our questions and instead just vigorously encouraged us to apply instead. We were quickly denied service, after application, with no reason given. Ultimately a good thing, since we will not want to do business with a completely impersonal company that shows themselves to be untrustworthy.

Thank you for your review and I apologize for your experience. Our customer service or sales team members tend to encourage merchants to apply because our underwriting team is best at determining if your business is a right fit for Afterpay as each business is unique, it's hard to have a blanket answer. Some reasons for rejecting the application is private. In your case, certain items in your store sells fell into our banned categories. I have already shared your feedback to appropriate teams. Please let me know if I can assist with anything - you can reach me at leah.dong@afterpay.com
It took some time, but Afterpay was thorough and complete with my approval and setup. It's great being a part of their community.
