Shopee PayLater System. Source: Shopee.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nTo be clearer, the author will give an example for three installments of 1x and 3x installments.<\/p>\n
Let's take an example transaction amount<\/strong> you are big 600.000<\/strong> rupiah<\/strong> and want to be paid as much 1x installment<\/strong>. This means you have to pay:<\/p>\n600,000 + 1% handling fee + 2,95% Interest rate, meaning<\/p>\n
600.000 + 6.000 + 17.700 = 623.700<\/span><\/strong>.<\/p>\nHowever, if you are late paying, you must add 5% to the total above, which is equal to 31.185<\/strong><\/span> rupiah.<\/p>\nSecond example, you have transaction amount<\/strong> as big 600,000 rupiahs<\/strong> and want to pay for it with 3x installments<\/strong>. It means you have to pay<\/p>\n600,000 \/ 3x installments = 200,000<\/p>\n
200,000 + 1% handling fee + 2,95% Interest rate, meaning<\/p>\n
200.000 + 2.000 + 5.900 = 207.900<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\nPros:<\/strong><\/h2>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.vcgamers.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Ilustrasi-Peminjaman-Kredit..jpg\")
Illustration of Credit Lending.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nFrom the explanation of Shopee PayLater, the author finds six advantages of using it. Of course, this advantage is made so that Shopee users are safer and more comfortable in transactions.<\/p>\n
First there are interest rates<\/strong> and handling fee <\/strong>which low<\/strong>. As the author wrote above, the interest rate from Shopee PayLater is only 2,95%. This figure is relatively small when compared to other credit programs.<\/p>\nAlso, the handling fee is set using a percentage following the amount of your bill. Not an exact number like a bank transfer to another bank with a handling fee of 7,500 rupiah, but you only transfer 100,000 rupiah.<\/p>\n
Second<\/strong> is Installment options can be up to 24x<\/strong>. For regular users, you can choose up to 12x installments. However, if you are a Shopee customer, you will have the opportunity to choose 18 and 24x installments!<\/p>\nThird<\/strong> is choose a due date<\/strong>. There are not many companies whose customers can choose the maturity date according to the time you borrow it. Starting from the 5th, 11th and 25th of each month.<\/p>\nAnd, as the author mentioned, each user has a different maturity. He will round off the date of your transaction to the nearest three digits.<\/p>\n
If you forget, Shopee will notify you 10 days before it's due.<\/p>\n
Fourth<\/strong> is The funds you get can be used immediately<\/strong>. Considering that this is a feature of Shopee, after you submit it, you can immediately place an order.<\/p>\nFifth advantage<\/strong> comes from the seller's side, ie money paid by SPayLater users is received immediately<\/strong>. Call it Shopee "bailout" product purchases with money. So if the buyer has a problem, the seller is not affected.<\/p>\nLastly is the lending of funds supervised by OJK (Financial Services Authority)<\/a>. That way, you can be more comfortable doing transactions because it has been supervised by an official state agency.<\/p>\nCons:<\/h2>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.vcgamers.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Ilustrasi-Perilaku-Konsumptif..jpg\")
Illustration of Consumptive Behavior.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nWhen talking about advantages, of course there are also disadvantages to Shopee PayLater. The writer finds three drawbacks of this feature.<\/p>\n
First<\/strong> is hefty late fees<\/strong>. Although not as big as other credit programs, according to the author, 5% is quite large.<\/p>\nSecond<\/strong> is use within the Shopee app only<\/strong>. This can actually be both an advantage and a disadvantage. Since this is a feature of Shopee, of course he wants the feature to work only for Shopee.<\/p>\nThis is the advantage, Shopee PayLater cannot make real money or transact elsewhere. This serves to avoid terms\u00a0Gestun<\/strong> or\u00a0Swipe Cash<\/strong>.<\/p>\nGestun<\/strong> is an illegal activity that allows people to borrow some money from a shop, but the money is not used in the shop. For example, there are users who try to withdraw their SPayLater funds, but they are used to buy products at Tokopedia<\/a>. Of course that won't work.<\/p>\nThe last is giving rise to hedonism or consumptive nature. Yes, if you often use SPayLater, it's not impossible that you will have the mindset "Just buy it, payday will immediately pay<\/em>\u201c.<\/p>\nOf course this is contrary to the savings system. Especially if your payday is postponed, you will get an additional fee due which is quite large.<\/p>\n
