Zip accounts can currently only be created by an individual (not under a business entity) but you can be approved in minutes for up to $1,000, and as long as repayments are made on time you are not charged any interest or fees on top of the original purchase price.

Zip is available online and instore and you pay only 25% upfront and your goods are shipped / taken straight away, then you pay the rest over 3 fortnightly payments.

How Zip works:
