Zip account
When you get to the payment page, select Zip as a payment method.
If it’s your first-time shopping with Zip, you’ll need to enter some personal details such as name, date of birth, mobile phone number and home address. Take care when entering your personal details, errors may prevent Zip from being able to verify your account or send you payment notifications.
Once approved, and you are happy with the instalment schedule, Zip will take the first instalment of 25% from the UK debit or credit card you supplied when signing up and your goods will be sent to you as they would with any other payment method
Then 3 payments of 25% over the next 3 fortnights via the card on your account.
It's easy!
Interest free
Every purchase you make with Zip is interest free. Unlike traditional finance options, as long as you make all your payments on time, there are no sign up fees, monthly fees or interest. You only pay the advertised price.
Zip charges Funky Yeti a small fee on each transaction, just like credit cards do. That fee then helps Zip to provide you interest free terms on every purchase.
FAQ
Is my payment information safe?
Payment information is processed securely by Zip. All transactions take place via secured connections that adhere to the latest industry standards and security protocols.
What happens if I cancel or return my order?
As soon as your cancellation/return has been accepted by us, Zip will cancel any future scheduled payments as well as refund any amounts due. As soon as we have registered your cancellation or return, Zip will process your refund within 10-15 business days. Any partial refunds will be applied to outstanding instalments first.
What happens if I don’t pay for my order?
Zip will automatically attempt to collect payment for your purchase from the debit or credit card you entered when you signed up to Zip. If you miss a scheduled payment, and don’t process a payment yourself before midnight on the day that it is due, Zip will charge a £6 late fee for every instalment missed. A payment can be made by you at any time by logging into your Zip customer portal. Please make sure you have money in your account in advance of your payments coming out.
