Payment Plan FAQs
The cost of your ownership is $200. To account for the service fees for a secure monthly, auto-billed payment plan, you will pay $10.85 for 20 months.
While we do not charge interest, we pay approximately $17 in service fees for our payment plan. To avoid spending SunCoast Market funds, we need to pass the service fees back to the owner.
When you complete your owner application, you select our $10 payment plan option from the list of payment choices. Once you submit your application, you are taken to a page to set up your auto-billing account. Each month you will be billed $10.85 (to include the service fee) on the select date. If you would like to pay your balance sooner or make additional payments you can do so through your account. If you want change the monthly billed amount to more than $10.85, you can contact us for an auto billing adjustment.
Not at all. We want you to pay in a way that works for your budget. If you want to make additional payments to reduce your balance, log into your account and make a payment or pay the remainder of your balance. You will still be billed as usually on your monthly billing date.
Because your security is a priority, we have used a highly secure payment platform. We realize that service fees are annoying, but that is the cost of a secure system. We were not satisfied with the security of other less expensive options.
Good news! You are a SunCoast Market Co-op owner after your first payment. That means you have the benefits of a yard sign, a vote, and the ability to volunteer or run for the Board of Directors just like anyone else who joins us.
At this time you cannot add additional shares to your payment plan. If you’d like additional shares to support the store, you can purchase up to 8 more but must pay in full. Shares can be purchased in our Online Shop.
If you have not completed our Owner Application, you can do that now and you select your payment option of choice and check out. We offer cash, check, PayPal, debit, and credit options all on the Owner Application. There is a $7 service fee applied to those wishing to use a credit or debit card to purchase their $200 ownership shares.
If you have already completed the Owner Application and selected the payment plan option, but have now decided to pay in full, you can check out from our online store.
