Installments

BASIC TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE PURCHASE ACCOUNT

If you want to buy now, but pay after receiving the goods, buy from the e-shop with a purchase account.

The purchase account is based on a credit limit, which makes shopping in the e-store convenient and secure for individuals.

Purchase account is an innovative "buy now, pay later" payment solution that allows you to pay for different goods within the specified credit limit only after receiving the goods. You can choose the time and amount suitable for repayment yourself. A precondition for payment with a purchase account is the conclusion of a one-time purchase limit agreement (credit agreement). A purchase account is a more reasonable solution than an installment payment, as the interest is calculated on the balance of the purchase limit and not on the purchase amount.

NB! The purchase account option is only valid for private individuals in the e-shop.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT PURCHASE ACCOUNT

 

What is a purchase account?

Purchase account is a "buy now, pay later" payment solution based on a credit limit, which is fast, convenient and secure and allows you to buy various goods from the e-store repeatedly. A precondition for opening a purchase account is concluding a one-time purchase limit agreement. The amount of the requested purchase limit can be used to purchase goods from the e-store repeatedly.

There is a free trial period for the first 30 days, during which there is no service or interest charge for using the purchase account.

How is a purchase account different from an installment?

The main difference between a purchase account and an installment payment is that the purchase account is intended for repeated purchases, but an installment purchase for one specific item.

Purchase account is also one of the cheapest ways to buy goods with credit.

Who is the purchase account for?

EXAMPLES OF PURCHASE AND PURCHASE ACCOUNT FOR THE PURCHASE OF THE SAME PRODUCT

 

Example of installment purchase (average data of installment service has been used in compiling the example):

The customer buys a product with a price of € 1,500 and wants to pay for it in installments over the next 24 months. The monthly installment of his installment is € 87.19, the interest rate is 15.90% of the amount of the purchased product, the contract fee is € 15 and the monthly surcharge is € 3. In the case of this installment agreement, the total amount of interest is € 504.84, the credit cost rate is 39.20%, and the customer must repay € 2,092.56 with additional fees at the end of the agreement.

Example of purchasing with a purchase account (the example is based on a future forecast):

The customer buys a product with a price of € 1,500 and wants to purchase it using a purchase account. Although the purchase account is opened for a purchase amount higher than the cost of a specific product and the contract has a very long validity period, the customer decides that he will repay the purchase limit used to purchase the product within the next 24 months. Under these conditions, the customer's monthly payment is € 80.08, the monthly management fee is € 3.95 (it does not apply for the first 30 days), the interest rate on the used purchase limit is 19.50%, the credit cost rate is 27.95% and the total interest is € 452.33. As this is the customer's first purchase, the customer also saves a transaction fee of € 2.95. By the end of the planned period, the customer will repay € 1,920.63 with additional charges.
