Layaway Control Panel

AMAZING customer service!! I was having issues with getting it up and running so I contacted the inventor. He found the error, rectified the problem and I was up and running in no time. My customers love this and so do I! Highly recommend!

Not sure why some of the negative reviews below. I've managed to install and create this as a payment alternative in Shopify settings easy enough. Can't comment much on the sales side of this app as my shop has only just gone live. I've tested the processing of an order and it all seemed alright. I'm drawn to this type of payment system because of my business type it works much like an artist commisions that require a deposit to start and remaining balance paid on completion. I'm giving these guys ago because of my target market (Australians) are addicted to lay-buys & those other get now and pay later systems and this gives those people another option. Not to be rude towards Lay-buys but I think you need to hire a graphic/web designer to improve your brand identity and the user interface as it looks a bit dated. Fixing this will build confidence in those who wish to use your payment option and give shop owners a better hook when selling your payment option to customers. Besides that, this app deserves more attention as it is a great concept and shops would benefit from using it.

This is a great app. Easy to set up and works well. I contacted them with a question about a transaction and received a response within half an hour.

This seems to be a very under rated and FREE app. The basic setup is actually pretty easy. Set up an account with Put it On Lay-Buy. On the Put it On Lay-Buy website - Enter in the PayPal API details - 3 items. Install the Payment method into Shopify (sticks it into the list of Third Party Payment methods) Install the App into Shopify. Then jump over to Shopify and select Put It On Lay-Buy from the Third Party Payment methods. Enter in your sign up email and the account code they give you. Literally ten minutes after setting this up we had a Lay-By sale. We did put up a banner on our website advertising it. The sale went through fine - we received the deposit and the App in Shopify shows the sale details. The buttons could do with a bit of modernization like a previous reviewer said. We are very pleased with this app. Solid effort !!!

Great customer service, easy step-by-step guides to follow and install everything, very nice app! Cant wait to see our sales increase from it, which Im positive it will. Professional useful secure, nice work! Thank you! www.talkingfashion.net

This is a good App, easy to integrate and for customer to use. It would be more beneficial for us though if weekly payments could be an option instead of monthly. Because we offer 8 week plans and require regular payments. Therefore we send a lot of invoices out via paypal instead so we can be paid weekly.

This is a great app. We installed it for our online gallery and it attracted customers immediately. So far so good. Warrin's quick replies to any of my enquiries has been appreciated.

Love this app! It works just as expected and allows buyers to have a convenient way to pay for something on Layaway.

Edited 10/15/20: There aren't a lot of apps I would come back three times for, but Lay-Buys has been a favorite of ours for a long time now (see below). Our customers love it, it increases our average order size, and it costs us NOTHING, ever. I can't recommend any app more, so I've come back to let readers know that we've been using it since 2016 and find it crucial to our success and growth. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain by installing this one for your customers! Edited 1/25/18: We've been using this app for 18 months now, and it has increased both our sales and our cart size very noticeably. We currently have over 24 orders on the Lay Buys program, which shows how much customers appreciate it! Many of these orders are from repeat customers who were very happy using it the first time and have come back for more collectibles, using it again to help budget those larger purchases. I see a couple reviews stating that the app slows down page load, but it does not slow down loading on our site, so perhaps they're mistaken about the cause of their slow load? We've had no issue with the app's operation, and it remains one of our most valuable add-ons to our Shopify site in terms of increased revenue. We've contacted Lay Buys support a few times with questions or to request tweaks to the app and Warrin always responds promptly with the help or feature we've requested. Truly, we couldn't be happier! And all this comes at zero cost to us, and very little cost to the customer? It's a huge win all around! Original review was in 2016: I waited to write this review until we saw a completed transaction using it. Our first use was a $900+ purchase, and it went smoothly for both the customer and for us. We both received notifications every step of the way, and she received a notice a couple days in advance of the monthly payment date so she knew when it would be coming out. That's perfect. When the final payment was made, she got a thank-you, and we got notice that the order was completed and can now be fulfilled. With no charge to the merchant (how refreshing!) and a minimal charge to the customer - less than one percent, this app has jumped up my favorite list quickly!

A fantastic app to offer Lay-by for your customers online. Warrin is incredible with helping you get set up and resolve any initial issues but the app works perfectly. The major downsides are the limited ability for visual customisation (for those who want a completely consistent 'look and feel') and the inability to set a minimum spend to use lay-buy at checkout. That said it's still a great solution and I believe the best one available. Thanks again to Warrin!

I had been looking for an option to offer layaway via our commerce store and Lay Buy to the rescue. The set up is a little involved, but well worth it. Support was great! I highly recommend it.

LAY-BUY is the only layby & layaway solution available for Shopify seller. Founder of lay-buy Warrin is very kind-hearted and patient installing the App for me, and assisting me adding a button on /cart page. Loving this app, and the app is very easy to use, and I hope we have more sales as it offers an optional payment method, which may be useful for some buyers.

Loving this app. So easy to use. And Warrin is always quick to respond and support. Wonderful experience.

LAY-BUY has been one of the best decisions we have made for our eCommerce store. We sell high end designer formal wear and offering Layaway through LAY-BUY has helped save many abandoned carts and offer the ability to afford a gown with online payment plans.Getting started is painless and within minutes you can accept LAY-BUY orders. Not to mention, the team at LAY-BUY are exceptional, especially Warrin. We always get a quick response and they are more than willing to assist with installs, questions and possible new features. We have tried the other Shopify Apps that provide this same service and LAY-BUY is the best one yet!
