It’s 2019: Installment Payments are here to stay!
Paying with an installment plan is not a new idea. People have been doing it for decades on large life purchases such as houses and cars. But here’s a twist: what if your customers could buy more ‘everyday’ merchandise or services from your store with an installment plan? What if these purchases worked just like regular credit or debit card purchases, and could be made through your existing payment gateway? What if your customers could purchase in installments through their own existing Visa and MasterCard cards, without having to fill out a new credit application? What if such purchases were completely interest free? It would give your customers a new and attractive payment option, and most likely, increase your sales conversion.
Pay over time, on your terms
Splitit provides installment payment services for merchants around the globe. Here’s how it works: you add Splitit as one of your payment options, giving your customers the choice to pay by regular installments without traditional credit card charges. When your customer chooses the Splitit option, he/she also selects the number of installments they want to pay with. Splitit authorizes the full purchase amount on the customer’s existing Visa or MasterCard credit card, then it charges them for the first installment — either immediately, or when the purchase item is shipped. Each month, Splitit reauthorizes the outstanding balance when the previous authorization is about to expire. Then it charges the purchaser’s credit card until the plan is finished.
