What is Payflex?
Payflex is an interest-free payment plan available at checkout. All you need is your ID number to confirm eligibility. If you qualify, you will be able to get your order now, but spread your payments either over 6 weeks OR 3 over 3 paydays – interest free. We’ll prepare your order immediately once payment is confirmed.
* Default fees apply if you miss a payment.
How does it work?
If you qualify and dependant on the option you select, Payflex will charge your card as follows:

- Pay in 4: 4 interest-free payments over 6 weeks, where the first payment is due upfront (25% paid) and the rest is split into 3 equal instalments, paid every two weeks for 6 weeks.
- Select “Payflex” at a checkout. Payflex is only available on orders up to R15 000

Note: If you are not approved for a Payflex account, you will be redirected back to Superbalist where you can choose a different payment method to complete your order.
What are the fees and interest charges?
Payflex does not charge fees or interest. You will pay the same order value split into four payments.
What if I miss a Payflex payment?
If you miss a scheduled payment, a default fee of R65.00 (incl. VAT) will be added to your account. A further R65.00 (incl. VAT) will be charged for every week that the payment remains unpaid. Total Payflex default fees are capped at a total of R195.00 (incl. VAT) or a maximum of 50% of the order value, whichever is lower.
Do I qualify for Payflex?
To be eligible for Payflex you need to be 18 years or older with a South African ID number and Visa or Mastercard (debit, cheque and credit cards are all good). You will also need a good credit history.
What products are not eligible for Payflex?
Payflex is not available on gift cards. If your order contains gift cards and other eligible products, you will need to purchase your gift cards separately.
How many Payflex orders can I have at the same time?
If it’s your first time using Payflex, you’ll only be allowed one order until your second scheduled payment has been paid. After that, you can place multiple orders, as long as you stay below your total spend limit.
How do I make instalment payments on an Payflex spend plan?
Payflex will automatically deduct scheduled instalments from the same card you used to make your first payment. If you want to pay your balance sooner, you can log in to your Payflex account to make early payments.
When will my item be delivered if I pay with Payflex?
Payflex orders are prepared for delivery once you make your first payment at checkout. Orders will be delivered within Superbalist’s standard delivery timeframes.
How do returns work?
If you want to return any items in your order, just follow the standard Superbalist returns process. If the return is approved, Superbalist will issue the refund against your Payflex account.

Absolutely. Payflex is an established payments company, and part of the $1bn Zip Co group that is listed in Australia. All payments are processed through state-of-the-art PCI compliant payment systems that ensure the security of your payments.
