Restricted goods
Afterpay/Clearpay restricts certain categories of products from being sold with their platform. In general if your shop sells mostly restricted items then your application won’t be approved. However if you sell mostly approved items with just a couple of restricted items, then you will need to remove Afterpay or remove Clearpay for just those items.
This list is from Afterpay/Clearpay and is correct at the time of publication but may change in future.
