Retail Plan: In this option, Splitit enables the merchant to offer you the ability to pay in installments using your existing credit card with no added fees. Your credit card issuer’s terms and fees still apply.
Splitit Financing: In this case, Splitit provides the installment plan directly to you via the merchant’s checkout. Finance charges apply and are clearly shown to you before you confirm. The terms and rates are outlined in the agreements you have received.

No, unfortunately not. We are only able to accept credit cards at the present time.
The supported credit cards vary depending on the merchant and plan selected. We typically accept Visa, Mastercard, and depending on the merchant, American Express, Discover and UnionPay.
Retail Plans are available in most parts of the world, depending on the merchant’s locations.
Splitit Financing is only available in the United States, excluding the states of Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, California, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Hawaii, Indiana, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Mississippi, Nebraska, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Texas, Vermont, Virginia, and Washington.

Yes. Splitit helps consumers use their existing credit card to turn purchases into smaller, flexible payments.
The full amount of your purchase, plus finance charges if your plan includes interest, is authorized (held) on your credit card to guarantee future payments so you need to have at least that amount plus finance charges in available credit on your card.
When you create a Splitit plan, you will see two transactions on your card:
Installment Payments – These are the regular monthly or bi-weekly payments you make toward your purchase. Your first installment is charged within 48 hours of your purchase date (or later if your order ships later). The remaining installments are automatically charged on the same day each month or every two weeks, based on your plan. This date cannot be changed. These charges will appear on your credit card as ‘posted’ or ‘charged’ amounts.
Authorization Hold – In addition to your regular payments, we place an authorization on your card for the full remaining balance of your plan, plus any interest if your plan includes finance charges. This is not a charge—just a temporary hold to guarantee your future payments.
In most cases, the authorization hold on your credit card is temporary. The exact length of time it stays on your card depends on your bank or credit card provider. Sometimes, the hold may stay in place for the full duration of your payment plan.
Because this timing is set by your bank, not by Splitit, please contact your financial institution directly if you have questions about how long the hold will remain.
The authorization is required to create your installment plan and may temporarily reduce your available credit, but it is not a charge.
To see exactly how your plan works, log in to the shopper portal and under ‘Plan Details’ click on ‘How Splitit Works?’. This will take you to a detailed explanation of your particular plan.
If your plan includes interest, the installment amount and the interest are authorized separately on your credit card.
For Retail Plans there are no additional fees or interests. Your credit card issuer’s terms and fees apply.
For Splitit Financing a finance charge of up to 36% may apply, depending on state and federal laws; however, Splitit does not charge any late fees, prepayment penalties, or other associated fees.
No. No new credit checks are required to use either a Retail Plan or Splitit Financing. Splitit does not report to the credit bureaus.
