Short Answer
Aaron’s late payment policy varies by region and, sometimes, by store, but you can expect to pay a $5 fee on all late payments. If you think you’re going to be late making a payment on your Aaron’s account, it would be a good idea to contact Aaron’s customer service department or your local Aaron’s to discuss your options before your payment is due.
Aaron’s Late Payment Policy
Aaron’s late payment policy varies by region — and even by store, in some instances. This is because some Aaron’s stores are company-operated, while others are franchise locations.
We contacted Aaron’s stores in California, Colorado, and Nevada to find out about more about the late payment policy. We found that payments are typically due on either the first or the 15th of each month, and a $5 late payment fee is assessed after your missed payment.
Grace periods vary; Colorado stores associates told us that a late fee will be charged five days after your missed payment, while store associates in California said a fee won’t be assessed until your payment is more than seven days late.
For specific details on late fees and grace periods, contact the Aaron’s store where you made your purchase(s) and/or consult your contract.
Collections & Repossession
Continued missed payments can result in your account being sent to Aaron’s corporate office, and from there, it may be sent to collections.
