The date at the beginning of these Terms and Conditions will be updated to the date such amendments take effect. You are responsible for ensuring you are familiar with the latest Terms and Conditions. Your continued use of the Platform after any amendments are made will be confirmation of your acceptance of these Terms and Conditions as amended.
  1. Conditions of Use

    1. To use the Platform you must be:
      1. 18 or more years old; and
      2. permanently reside in the United Kingdom
  2. Purchasing goods and services

    1. The Platform permits you to purchase certain products and services made available by retailers approved by us ("Merchants"). Details of the Merchants can be found here Some of the products and/or services a Merchant sells may not be available to be purchased using the Platform. The Merchant and not us will advise you which products and services can be purchased via the Platform.
    2. When using the Platform in a store or online:
      1. you instruct us to purchase the product or service you select using the Platform ("Product" or "Service", as the case may be) from a Merchant;
      2. we will pay the full amount of purchase price for the Product or Service inclusive of any sales tax, delivery costs, booking fees, service charges and other fees the Merchant may impose on the Product or Service ("Purchase Price") to the Merchant;
      3. all transactions on the Platform will be processed in British Pound Sterling;
      4. where applicable, the Merchant will arrange for delivery of the Product or Service we have purchased to you (with delivery times dependent on the Merchant and that Merchant's delivery terms and conditions), and in the case of the Product it will become your exclusive property on delivery;
      5. the Merchant will pay us, or we will deduct, a commission fee for assisting to procure the sale of the Product or Service to you; and
      6. you unconditionally, and irrevocably, agree to pay to us the full Purchase Price and such other sums as may be due to us in accordance with these Terms and Conditions on the terms set out in these Terms and Conditions.
  3. Fees and payment

    1. Subject to clause 4.2, you must pay us the Purchase Price for each Product or Service you purchase from us using the Platform in six equal weekly instalments. The first instalment will be due and payable at the time you purchase the Product or Service. The second instalment will be due and payable on the date that is one week after the date of purchase (at the latest, although you may choose a sooner date if we make this option available to you). Each of the four subsequent instalments will be due and payable on the same day in the weeks following. For example, if you purchase a Product or Service on a Friday, and the Purchase Price is £60, on the date of purchase you will pay £10 and on each Friday in the following five weeks you will be required to pay us an instalment amount of £10.
    2. Each purchase of Products or Services through our Platform is subject to our approval in addition to any transaction limit ("Your Limit") assigned to you for that purchase. If:
          (a)  the Purchase Price for the Product or Service is in excess of Your Limit; or
          (b)  the Purchase Price and the aggregate of all other amounts you owe us in respect of the Products and Services,
      is in excess of Your Limit, the first instalment of the Purchase Price that is due and payable in accordance with clause 4.1 will be for the amount by which the Purchase Price exceeds Your Limit and the remainder of the Purchase Price owed will be divided and paid over the remaining five instalment payments. For example, if Your Limit is £60 and the Purchase Price is £80, on the date of purchase you will pay £20 (being the excess above Your Limit) and on each of the five remaining instalment dates you will pay £12.
    3. You will not be charged any interest on the amounts you are required to pay to us.
    4. By using the Platform, you grant us an authority to charge all amounts owed by you to us in connection with any Product or Service you purchase, or otherwise under these Terms and Conditions (including default fees), to your nominated debit card or credit card. Your payment method will need to be approved by us before you will be able to purchase any Products or Services using the Platform.
    5. You will be responsible for ensuring you have sufficient available funds on your nominated debit card or sufficient available credit on your credit card, depending on the payment method we register on your account, to enable us to collect all amounts owed by you to us in connection with any Product or Service you purchase, or otherwise, under these Terms and Conditions. You will have sole responsibility for paying all bank and/or card charges associated with any payment method we approve for you.
    6. At any time, you can pay some, or all, of the Purchase Price to us in advance of the due date of the instalment payments referred to in clause 4.1, without penalty. If you make any such early payment, all subsequent instalment payments will be adjusted accordingly so the same amount is due for payment on each subsequent instalment date (unless you prepay the full amount of the Purchase Price in which case there will be no more instalments).
    7. If for any reason whatsoever you fail to, or are unable to, make an instalment payment on its due date, you will have a further 24 hours to pay. If you fail pay within 24 hours of the due date, we will charge you a default fee of £6. If you do not rectify your default by making the missed instalment payment within the next seven days, we will charge you a further default fee of £6. As a result, you could be charged, in aggregate, £12 for each instalment payment you miss or which is paid late up to a maximum charge of £24 for each purchase you make (and by using the Platform, you agree these default fees are fair and reasonable given the time and cost we will incur in dealing with your default). We may also arrange for a debt collection agency to collect the amount you owe us from you.
    8. You will not, for any reason, set off, deduct or withhold any amount in respect of payments due to us under these Terms and Conditions.
  4. Your account, log in and security

    1. You may access or download the Platform for free (although you will need an internet connection to access or download, access and use the Platform and you may incur charges or fees from your mobile network provider associated with the same).
    2. When you first use the Platform, you will be required to provide certain log in information (including a user name and password) that will enable you to access the Platform each time you wish to use the Platform to purchase Products or Services. You must keep your log in information secure to avoid use of the Platform using your log in details by other persons.
    3. You must not permit use of the Platform using your log in details by any other person. If the Platform is or was used by any other person with your log in details, or if you know or suspect any other person has obtained your log in details, you must immediately notify us at help@laybuy.com.

  5. Dealings with Merchants

    1. Although you purchase the Products or Services from us, the Merchant is responsible for delivering the relevant Products or Services, and we make no representations or warranties nor provide any guarantees in respect of any such Products or Services.
    2. If you wish to return the Product, cancel the Service or have any complaint, concern or other issue with a Product or Service, you must address these directly with the Merchant (in accordance with the Merchant's policy for the same). Each Merchant will have its own policy about returns, cancellations and complaints. The relevant Merchant is responsible for providing or advising you in respect of any returns, cancellations or complaints or similar issues.
    3. If, in accordance with the Merchant's consent and/or instructions, you return the Product to the Merchant and arrange with the Merchant for a replacement Product to be delivered or arrange with the Merchant for the Service to be re-performed your obligation to pay the Purchase Price to us continues unaffected.
    4. If:
      1. the Product is returned to the Merchant and not replaced; or
      2. the Service is not provided or not provided to your reasonable satisfaction or you cancel; and
      3. the Merchant agrees you should receive some or all your Purchase Price back, your obligation to make the instalment payments referred to in clause 4.1 or clause 4.2 (as applicable) will continue unaffected until the Merchant advises us:
        1. the Product has been returned and not replaced; or
        2. the Service has not been provided or not provided to your reasonable satisfaction or you have cancelled; and
      • the Merchant has refunded the Purchase Price into our bank account in cleared and immediately available funds, at which time we will stop charging instalment payments to your debit or credit card (as the case may be) for the relevant Product or Service and arrange to refund all amounts (if any) you have paid to us in respect of the Purchase Price for the relevant Product or Service (other than default fees).
    5. You purchase the Product from us. Under no circumstances will you be entitled to have all, or any part of, the Purchase Price refunded directly to you by the Merchant. Your obligation to pay the Purchase Price to us continues unaffected until we have received the Purchase Price.
    6. If you are not satisfied with the way in which the Merchant deals with your concern or issue, or your concern or issue is not resolved or otherwise addressed by the Merchant to your satisfaction, you should notify us in writing at help@laybuy.com including details of your complaint. While we will use reasonable endeavours to assist you with your subsequent dealings with the Merchant, until the concern or issue is resolved your obligation to make the instalment payments for the Purchase Price referred to in clause 4.1 will continue unchanged.
    7. We provide no guarantee or other assurances in respect of the timing of any refunds as timing will be influenced by the actions of the relevant Merchant and the bank being used.
    8. Nothing in this clause affects your legal rights.
