If you've been looking to buy stainless steel tables and benches with Afterpay, SSB now makes it easier than ever to get the commercial-grade equipment you need without paying the full amount upfront.

This article covers everything you need to know about using Afterpay to purchase stainless steel benches and tables from SSB. It's written for home cooks, small business owners, caterers, tradies and anyone who wants quality commercial equipment without a large upfront outlay.

TL;DR - Quick Answer Yes, SSB accepts Afterpay. Select Afterpay at checkout, pay 25% today and the remaining three instalments fortnightly. Zero interest. No hidden fees if you pay on time. Available on all standard orders across the Light Duty, Prosumer and Heavy Duty ranges.

What Is Afterpay and How Does It Work at SSB?

Afterpay is Australia's most widely used buy now, pay later (BNPL) service. Founded in 2015, it allows you to purchase goods immediately and receive them straight away, while splitting the total cost into four equal, interest-free fortnightly payments. The first payment is made at checkout - the remaining three are automatically charged every two weeks.

At SSB, Afterpay works exactly the same way it does on any major Australian retail platform. Here's the process step by step:

Step 1 - Add your bench to cart.

Browse the SSB range and select the size, configuration and grade that suits your setup. Light Duty, Prosumer and Heavy Duty all qualify.

Step 2 - Select Afterpay at checkout.

At the payment screen, choose Afterpay as your payment method. If you're a new Afterpay customer, sign up takes less than two minutes.

Step 3 - Pay 25% now.

The first instalment is charged immediately. Your order is confirmed and processed straight away - no waiting until the item is paid off.

Step 4 - Pay the remaining three instalments fortnightly.

Afterpay automatically charges the remaining payments every two weeks. As long as payments are made on time, there is no interest charged.

Step 5 - Receive your bench.

SSB processes and dispatches your order on the standard timeline. Free metro delivery applies as normal. Afterpay does not delay shipping.

There are no processing fees on the customer side, and no interest charges as long as payments are on time. Late fees apply if a scheduled payment is missed - this is managed directly by Afterpay, not SSB.

Afterpay vs Paying Upfront vs Traditional Finance

Not sure which payment method suits you? Here's a straightforward comparison of the three most common options for purchasing commercial equipment in Australia.

For most small business owners, caterers and home buyers, Afterpay hits the right balance - instant approval, no interest and no impact on your credit score for routine use.

Who Should Use Afterpay for Stainless Steel Equipment?

Afterpay is particularly well suited to a specific type of buyer - and less relevant for others. Here's how to decide if it's the right option for your purchase.

Use Afterpay if:

You're a small business owner or sole trader who needs equipment now but prefers to manage cash flow across the month. A new bench for your cafe, food truck or pop-up kitchen doesn't have to come out of one week's revenue when Afterpay spreads it across eight weeks.

You're a home cook or serious home entertainer fitting out a butler's pantry, outdoor kitchen or home prep area. The Light Duty and Prosumer ranges sit comfortably within Afterpay's standard spending limits, making them an easy split-payment purchase.

You're a caterer or event operator who needs to scale up equipment quickly for a contract or seasonal spike. Afterpay lets you move fast without waiting for cash to clear.

Consider paying upfront if:

Your total order value is large - particularly Heavy Duty full kitchen fit-outs - as Afterpay has spending limits that may not cover very large commercial orders. For large fit-outs, contact SSB directly to discuss the best payment arrangement.

You prefer to keep your finances simple and have the budget available. There's nothing wrong with a single payment, and it keeps your Afterpay account free for other purchases.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: Can I buy stainless steel benches with Afterpay on SSB's website?

Yes. Brisbane-based customers can use Afterpay for online orders and collect from SSB's Coopers Plains depot the same day. Place your order online, select Afterpay at checkout, and bring your order confirmation when you arrive for pickup.

Q3: Is Afterpay better than paying upfront for commercial kitchen equipment?

It depends on your situation. Afterpay is interest-free and requires no application, making it a smart option for managing cash flow - especially for small business owners and sole traders. If your order is very large or you prefer simplicity, paying upfront avoids any obligation. For most standard bench purchases in the Light Duty, Prosumer and Heavy Duty range, Afterpay is a straightforward and cost-neutral way to spread the cost.

Q4: How much is the first Afterpay payment when buying a stainless steel bench?

The first Afterpay payment is 25% of your order total, charged at checkout. For example, a $200 bench would require a $50 payment today, with three further $50 payments charged fortnightly. There are no interest charges or processing fees as long as payments are made on time. Late fees apply if a scheduled payment is missed - see Afterpay's website for current fee details.
