How do I skip a payment?

Some Payble payment plans allow you to skip an upcoming payment. This option is only available on certain plan types and may not appear for every plan.

Additional Information

Before you start:A few things to note about skipping a payment.
  • Skipping isn't available on all plans. Whether you can skip a payment depends on your plan type.
  • Your future payments may change. If you skip a payment, the remaining instalments on your plan may increase to make up the missed amount. This can vary based on your plan type and the time of year.
  • There's a limit on consecutive skips. You can skip up to two payments in a row. After that, you'll need to make a payment before the skip option becomes available again.
  • Autopay plans can't be skipped. If your plan type is Autopay (where each instalment is paid in full on the due date), skipping payments isn't supported.

 

How-to

Step 1: Sign in to your account

 

To make changes or view your plan in Payble, sign in using the same authentication method you used when setting up your plan (mobile or email). You will not be able to view your plan if you haven’t authenticated with the exact same method.
