Expedia Group partners with Afterpay to enhance flexibility for Australian travellers

Expedia Group partners with Afterpay to enhance flexibility for Australian travellers
October 19, 2023

Leading traveller technology platform, Expedia Group has announced its partnership with global ‘Buy Now, Pay Later’ leader, Afterpay into Australia.

From October, Australians can now book travel with Expedia through a co-branded experience in the Afterpay app and select the option to pay in four interest-free instalments. Going on holiday just got more flexible.

This partnership between Expedia Group and Afterpay provides travellers with more flexibility, whether they're planning a family holiday, booking a business trip, or taking the trip of a lifetime. Afterpay’s ‘Pay in 4’ product lets travellers spread their payment over six-to-eight weeks with zero interest, offering more ways and flexibility to pay for their trip.

Powered by Expedia Group’s Strategic Partnerships and Affiliate technology, travellers can browse and book Expedia Group’s global supply of more than three million properties around the world, through this dedicated experience.

Clayton Nelson, Vice President, Strategic Partnerships & Affiliates, Expedia Group enthused “we're excited to partner with Afterpay in Australia, giving travellers more flexibility to book their dream trip. This collaboration reaffirms our commitment to growing and enhancing the traveller experience through cutting-edge technologies, empowering our partners to deliver great experiences to their customers and drive customer loyalty.”

Katrina Konstas, EVP and Country Manager ANZ, Afterpay added “establishing a partnership with Expedia Group is a substantial stride towards offering our Australian customers an affordable and responsible payment option for higher-priced purchases like travel. As the nation's peak travel period fast approaches, we are excited to provide an easy and flexible service that will allow travellers to book their preferred accommodations and pay in four manageable instalments, interest-free and over time which is in line with our mission to power an economy in which everyone wins.”
