Offering Australian diners more choice, Afterpay is now accepted as one of the payment options in hospitality venues across Australia exclusively via Mr Yum.

Mr Yum data compiled during a three-month pilot period of top venues including Vapiano, Manly Skiff and more than 100 Australian Venue Co pubs, showed almost one in two diners who ordered through Afterpay were first-time customers at that venue. 

Top items ordered through Afterpay include bingsu - a Korean shaved ice dessert - pasta carbonara and the perennial pub favourite, chicken parma.
