How it all works

 

Your first payment is made when you make your purchase and will be 25% of the purchase price for any purchase under $1,000. If you purchase something over $1,000 (up to a maximum of $1,500) your first payment will be $250 plus the amount over $1,000. Each subsequent instalment is charged every fortnight after the purchase date.
For example:

Purchase Price

  • $500.00

  • Instalment 1 - $125 due on 1 June (today)

  • Instalment 2 - $125 due on 15 June

  • Instalment 3 - $125 due on 29 June

  • Instalment 4 - $125 due on 13 July

I have tried to make a purchase but the transaction has declined. Why?

When Oxipay approve a new purchase they do a few checks for you to determine if:

  • the purchase is within the maximum purchase limit ($1,500);

  • whether the total of your instalment payment(s) will exceed $250 per fortnight; and

  • the maximum amount of all Oxipay balances owing you currently have with us is not more than $1,000.

These checks are in place to ensure your repayments are easy to manage and friendly on your wallet. 

Other reasons why your transaction could decline could be due to general system or website errors, or you have not registered for Oxipay.
