Profit Rate | Nominal Profit Rate: This refers to the fee charged for the provision of SPayLater services and is interchangeable with the Instalment Rate as referred to in our Terms of Service.
Effective Profit Rate (EPR): This refers to the actual cost of your SPayLater bill, accounting for the gradual reduction of the outstanding balance as you make bill payments. It is calculated based on your remaining outstanding balance on each billing date.
Note: Both terms refer to the same profit rate; you are not being charged twice. | Profit Rate is charged on the monthly installment amount. | Nominal Profit Rate is based on the payment plan chosen and the transaction amount:
· 1 Month - No charge · 3 Months* - 1.5% per month / 4.5% · 6 Months - 1.5% per month / 9% · 12 Months - 1.5% per month / 18% · 18 Months - 1.5% per month / 27% · 24 Months - 1.5% per month / 36%
*For 3 months, no profit rate charges apply to Shopee marketplace platform checkouts, where you can see a 0% profit rate on the checkout payment options page. |
Late Charge | Refers to the penalty charged if a user doesn’t pay their SPayLater bill by the due date. Monee will freeze the user’s SPayLater account if payments are late. | Late Charge is incurred when users do not pay the SPayLater bill after the due date. | RM10 or the principal bill, whichever is lower.
· If the principal bill exceeds RM10, the late charge will be RM10 · If the principal bill is below RM10, a late charge will match the principal bill |

Example of transaction amount = RM100 | Example of transaction amount = RM1,000 | |||||||
Total Profit | No Charge | RM100 * 4.5% | RM100 * 9% | RM100 * 18% | RM100 * 27% | RM100 * 36% | RM1,000 * 54% = RM540 | RM1,000 * 72% = RM720 |
Total Price Paid | RM100+0 | RM100+4.50 | RM100+9 | RM100+18 | RM100+ 27 | RM100+ 36 | RM1,000 + 540 = RM1,540.00 | RM1,000 + 720 = RM1,720.00 |
Instalment per Month | RM100.00/1M | RM104.50/3M | RM109.00/6M | RM118.00/12M | RM127.00/18M | RM136.00/24M | RM1,540.00/36M | RM1,720.00/48M |
Scenario | Principal Amount | Late Charge |
Order below RM10 | Principal Amount for first Instalment = RM9 | Late Charge = RM9 Since this amount is less than RM10, the late charge is RM9 |
Order exceeds RM10 | Principal Amount for first Instalment = RM11
| Late Charge = RM10 Since this amount exceeded RM10, the late charge is RM10 |
