Layby sales are governed by the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth) for Australia. SKM Furniture Layby allows you to buy a product and pay for it in instalments before taking it home. SKM Furniture will only dispatch the buyer product/s after receiving the final instalment payment for all Lay-Buy deals. A lay-by is available to any individuals that live in Australia and are at least 18 years old. However, before you can use Laybuy you need to provide us with your full name, residential address, email address and mobile number for the credit check/verification. SKM Furniture Layby offers shoppers a simple interest-free payment plan that lets you secure your purchase today and pay for it in monthly equal payments for the agreed lay-buy period of up to 12 months. A late payment fee of $50 may be charged in respect of each payment you fail to make on-time. Any payment default may also result in our debt collection service contacting you and/or your credit score being affected.
