At humm, we do Buy Now Pay Later a little differently. Instead of just focusing on the little joys in life, we want to allow our customers to fund whatever they need, both big and little. This means we’ve split our product in two; Little things for all of your purchases up to $2,000, and Big things for those purchases over $2,000 and all the way up to $30,000. They each have their own set of rules for approval, but no matter what, we never charge interest – ever.

Here’s a nifty little chart to help you understand how Little things and Big things work.

You can buy stuff both online and in-store, here’s how:

• Online – simply go to any website which has the humm logo (or choose from our onsite Store Directory), choose humm at checkout and you’ll be taken through humm to get your payment sorted.
• In-Store – Open the humm App to create a barcode and use this at checkout to make your purchase, they’ll scan it or key in the code manually.

Pre-approval is the way to go with Big things. Apply on the humm App before you shop, letting us know how much you’d like pre-approved (up to $10,000), or if you don’t have a set amount in mind, we can give you one.

In order to apply for Big things, you’ll just need to share access to your bank statements for information that will help us with the approval process. Once approved, we’ll generate a barcode which has all of the info you’ll need to make purchases (most importantly, it gives stores access to your pre-approval amount). Your pre-approval lasts 60 days. 

With Little things, you sure can! You can buy as much as you’d like within your spending limit. For Big things, available spend can be bumped back up based on your Terms & Conditions. However, just note that a repurchase fee of $22 is payable on additional buys.

We may take a look at your credit score when you apply, but don’t worry, simply applying for humm won’t affect your score at all or leave a record on your credit file.

In some cases, we take extra precaution if we don’t know much about you – like if you’re new to humm. As we get to know you over time, we may offer to increase your limit.

We’re a responsible provider of credit, which means we need to take a few things into consideration when we assess your application.

An example of something that may affect your application is your repayment history with other lenders and accounts (e.g. telco, utilities, and credit account). Accessing this information helps us determine if you can comfortably meet your repayment requirements.

However, there are other reasons we may choose not to approve your application based on the information you provide. Each case is unique, and we take into consideration additional factors like how much you earn, your spending habits and your employment status in order to make our decision.

We have a full directory of stores where you can shop with humm on our website.

If you want to cancel a purchase you’ve made, you’ll need to file the request through the retailer. Then, they’ll get in touch with us to process the request.

To file a formal dispute, please send us an email at [email protected] with ‘Attention Manager Regarding Dispute’ in the subject line. In the email, include as much information about your issue as possible. Be sure to include any photos, supporting documents, contact information of people you’ve spoken to at the retailer, and anything else that you feel supports your claim.

Once we’ve received it and are sure we have all of the information we need, we’ll manage it with the retailer directly. The formal dispute process doesn’t stop you from getting information or support from a statutory body or consumer law centre in your state or territory

A payment plan is an ongoing amount you pay for each item you buy. This goes for both Big things and Little things.

For Big things, the store will take a deposit upfront, and then you’ll be able to organise a payment plan to cover the rest of the cost of your purchase.

For Little Things, your deposit is taken as an upfront payment from your humm account, and then you’ll have a reoccurring payment after that.

And don’t forget – humm is interest free, foreverrrr.

Sure is. There’s a calculator on the bottom of this page. Scroll down and pop in the amount you’re planning to spend. You’ll get a few different repayment options based on different repayment periods.  

Yes, you can change your payment date by logging into your account on the app or web, and finding the payment and selecting the calendar icon (web) or clicking pay and choosing Move this Payment (app). Remember, you can only change future dated payments and not ones that were due today or in the past.

That said, give us a buzz on 1800 088 151 from 7.30am to 7.30pm Monday through Friday or Saturday between 7.30am and 5.30pm (AEST) and our Support Team can help you out with some options.

Definitely! All you need to do is hit ‘Pay Now’ and you can make early repayments on any active purchase at any time. Just ensure you have an active debit or credit card on your account.

Settings > Payment Methods > Add New Card > (fill in the details) > Add Card.

Just note that your bank will place a hold of $1 on your nominated credit card.

Of course. You can pay your outstanding balance at any time without worrying about any additional charges or fees.

Here’s how:

Go to the Payments section of the App or humm website and follow the steps to find your payout amount.

Once you’ve repaid your purchases in full, your account will become inactive with no more fees or charges to pay.

There are some fee implications if we close an account/as opposed to just leaving it in inactive status. As a result, our preference is to leave accounts in inactive status but if a customer REALLY wants to close it, they need to contact us (via phone or email) and request that we physically close the account

Zero. Nothing. Nada. The technical term we use is ‘nil balance’. If this is the case for you, it may mean that you may need to either add a credit card or apply for a Boost.
