Our Strategy
==> picture [147 x 38] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [585 x 540] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [22 x 33] intentionally omitted <==
Pay on Demand —a better way
We believe that nobody wants to be in debt. We believe that most people, when money is tight, only want to borrow a small amount of money for a short period of time, to tide them over until they get paid.
Beforepayis committed to providing a safe, affordable alternative to - traditional debt, allowing working Australians to manage temporary cash flow challenges with a lower risk of accumulating debt.
We advance small amounts of money (average size c. A$400) to people for a simple 5% fee with nothing else to pay, and then debit their account when they next get paid.
This gives people flexibility when they’re just a little bit short or there are unexpected expenses,without tying them to an ongoing debt burden.

What makes us different
Simple, flat, and transparent fee . We charge 5% on the amount advanced, with nothing more to pay. No late fees, no rapid-payment fees, no subscriptions, no tips, no interest incurred.
Funds available instantly. The money is in your bank account in less than one minute.
Best-in-class credit decisioning . Pay-cycle algorithms and credit-risk models built by a team of data scientists, powered by a proprietary database of more than one billion data points.
Relentless focus on a single product. A talented team of technologists, designers, product managers, marketers, and data scientists, all working on one great product.

Advance by Half Year

Direct service costs include the cost of services involved in facilitating pay advances to customers: data collection, transaction categorisation, direct credit and direct debit.
Direct costs do not vary with the amount advanced — positive operating leverage.
Direct service costs as a % of pay advances reduced to 0.3% in H1FY23 (0.7%: H1FY22). Decreases due to vendor negotiations, adjustments to vendors used and hitting volume thresholds in rate cards.
