Flexible Pet Payment Options

At the Grange Vet Clinic, we understand that your pets are cherished members of your family. Their health and well-being are paramount, and we are committed to providing the highest quality veterinary care. We also know that unexpected vet bills can be a source of stress. That’s why we are thrilled to announce that Grange Vet Clinic now offers flexible payment options through VetPay, Zip, and Afterpay! These services are designed to help you manage the cost of your pet’s treatment, ensuring they receive the care they need, when they need it, without financial burden.

Here’s a quick rundown of how VetPay, Zip, and Afterpay can make veterinary care more accessible for your beloved companion:

• VetPay: Specifically designed for veterinary expenses, VetPay allows you to spread the cost of treatment over a 6 or 12-month period. You’ll typically pay an initial deposit (often 20%), and then the remaining balance is debited fortnightly from your nominated account. VetPay aims to make applications quick and easy, with many approvals granted on the spot. This can be a fantastic option for larger, more comprehensive treatments.
  You can get approval online or call them directly on (08) 8465 1850. You will be issued with a 6 digit PIN at the time of approval which we will need from you at the time of checking out. Please keep this number handy.
• Zip (Zip Pay & Zip Money): With Zip, you can get the treatment your pet needs today and pay for it later, often with interest-free periods available. Zip offers two options: Zip Pay for smaller purchases and Zip Money for larger expenses, providing you with a flexible line of credit. You can choose a repayment schedule that suits your budget.
  Get approval online quickly and easily.
  At the time of checking out, we will need the 6 digit In-Store code. Please have this unique identifier ready at the time of finalising your account.
• Afterpay: Ideal for those who prefer to split payments into smaller, more frequent installments, Afterpay allows you to pay for your pet’s treatment in four interest-free installments over six weeks. You’ll typically pay the first installment at the time of service, and the rest will be automatically deducted every two weeks. It’s a great choice for routine check-ups, vaccinations, or minor treatments.
  Afterpay is primarily app based and provides you with a digital “card” which you can tap-to-pay on our EFTPOS machine, much like paywave/Apple Pay! So very quick and easy at the checkout.

Why are we offering these options?

Our priority is always the health and happiness of your pets. We believe that financial constraints should never stand in the way of essential veterinary care. By introducing VetPay, Zip, and AfterPay, we aim to:

• Reduce financial stress: Unexpected pet emergencies can be costly. These payment plans offer peace of mind, allowing you to focus on your pet’s recovery rather than immediate financial strain.
• Improve access to care: Whether it’s a routine vaccination, a dental procedure, or emergency surgery, these options make comprehensive veterinary care more accessible to a wider range of pet owners.
• Promote proactive health: Knowing that flexible payment options are available can encourage pet owners to seek timely veterinary attention, potentially preventing minor issues from escalating into more serious and expensive problems.

Using these options in clinic:

If you’re considering using VetPay, Zip, or Afterpay for your pet’s next visit, please ensure that your approval is completed at the time of your appointment. As long as you’re approved, we don’t need to know in advance, simply let us know at the time of paying your bill. At Grange Vet Clinic, we’re dedicated to supporting you and your pets every step of the way. These new payment options are just another way we’re striving to make excellent pet care as accessible, convenient and stress-free as possible.
