Earlier this month, Afterpay was proud to support our partners Thread Together and DISSH in hosting a private styling event for women experiencing vulnerability. The evening was all about empowerment, providing dignity and ultimately choice. Thread Together clients selected brand-new clothing in a welcoming, uplifting space, with stylists, hair and nail stations making it a truly special experience. A huge thank you to Thread Together for leading this important work, and to DISSH for opening your doors to create such a memorable night. We’re grateful to play a small part in supporting initiatives that restore confidence and hope through the power of fashion and community. #ThreadTogether #DISSH #Afterpay #CommunityImpact

💎 How Afterpay helped Mejuri boost AOV by 75% in Australia When Mejuri migrated to a new e-commerce platform in 2024, they saw more than just an opportunity to upgrade their infrastructure. They saw a chance to elevate the entire customer experience. In Australia, offering Afterpay made a striking impact: Mejuri’s basket sizes surged by 75% when customers chose Afterpay at checkout (Afterpay x Mejuri Case Study, 2025). Why it worked so well: Meeting shoppers where they are: Offering flexible payment options isn’t just convenient – it’s essential. Afterpay is about giving power back to the customer, and Mejuri got that instantly. A seamless setup, globally: Coming from Shopify, Mejuri found integrating Afterpay to be as simple as pressing a button: scalable, efficient, and effective. Win-win performance: It wasn’t just about bigger baskets. Repurchase rates climbed too because customers love flexibility and transparency. The bottom line? Adding Afterpay made plain business sense. It wasn't just another payment method, it became a growth lever. As Mejuri’s Chief Digital Officer Rohit Nathany puts it: “I would say, ‘Just do it’. At the end of the day, it’s about what customers care about. It just doesn’t make sense not to do it.” Read more here - https://lnkd.in/guNkw2c3 #AfterpayBusiness #Mejuri #Ecommerce #BusinessGrowth #CustomerExperience

Afterpay Day is almost upon us and it’s the most feel-good one yet with 'The Pay It Forward Mystery Market' coming to life! Inspired by new research into Aussie spending habits, this customer activation is the antidote into a growing “Generosity Gap” — with many wanting to give, but feeling like they can’t. Here’s what we found (Antenna for Afterpay, July 2025): • 94% of Australians say giving is how they show love • 72% have cut back on gifting due to cost of living • 80% of millennials are looking for new ways to be generous So this Afterpay Day, every win is a moment to share. The Pay It Forward Mystery Market will give away over $200,000 in prizes from some of the country’s most-loved brands, including Webjet.com.au, Dyson, Nintendo, Petbarn, Hommey, Crocs, RedBalloon, and more. When you win a prize, you don't just get to keep it, you get to gift the exact same one to a friend or family member - doubling the joy of winning! On August 14, 1,000 mystery boxes will be available at Pitt St Mall, Sydney. We can't wait to see you there and help spread the joy. #AfterpayDay #GenerosityEconomy #CustomerLove #BrandPartnerships #MysteryMarket Runs 14/08/25 from 8:00AM to 2:00PM AEST or when all prizes are claimed.

🚨 New research reveals a confronting reality - More than 3 in 5 Australian women have been forced to use makeshift items as sanitary products (June, 2025). This is not just a statistic – it's a wake-up call. That's why we're proud to partner with On the House Group, an Australian-based social impact start-up revolutionising access to period care. Through innovative digital dispensers funded solely by advertising, founder Remy Tucker has created a sustainable solution to period poverty. As the inaugural partner, together we're turning that ‘time of the month’ into a time for change, championing the fundamental principle that access to period products is a right, not a privilege. Starting in Brisbane and expanding nationwide, these dispensers in public bathrooms will provide free, sustainable period products for anyone who needs them. To our fellow merchant partners: join us in this movement. Together, we can make this vision a reality.

At Afterpay, we know that the best partnerships go beyond transactions—they’re built on shared experiences and aligned values. That’s exactly what we celebrated recently with our friends at Dermalogica Australia, one of our amazing merchant partners, during a special edition of our Block Sydney Run Club. In a fun and energising relay ‘race’ around Tech Central, Block team members laced up and ran solo, or in teams, for a bit of friendly competition. Right alongside the action, Dermalogica brought the wellness vibes with a hydration station, face mapping consultations, skin health tips, and of course, some of their signature product samples. This is a great example of how we bring our merchant relationships to life — creating meaningful moments that connect our team with the brands we love and support. It’s all part of fostering a culture where wellness, collaboration, and community thrive. Big thanks to the Dermalogica team for being part of this! #Dermalogica #WellnessAtWork #MerchantPartnership #RunClub #TeamCulture #SkincareMeetsWellness

This week we had the privilege of hosting an exclusive Peak Performance event in New Zealand with our Co-Founder Nick Molnar and All Blacks legend Richie McCaw. An inspiring conversation rooted in leadership and innovation, with shared stories of resilience and growth, the energy in the room was electric. Nick and Richie brought together two very different but parallel worlds - business and sport - highlighting the values they share: discipline, trust and the importance of team culture. It was an honour to connect with our Kiwi community, celebrate the power of partnerships, and showcase how Afterpay continues to support customers and businesses across New Zealand. #businessleadership #teamculture #merchantcommunity #businessgrowth #inspiration #newzealandbusiness
