Seamless sports & outdoor gear payment solutions
Splitit provides the technology that empowers you to offer installment payments embedded within your existing customer journey. Whether you’re selling bikes, fitness equipment, camping gear, hiking equipment, or outdoor adventure gear, our seamless integration ensures customers can purchase what they need without leaving your brand experience.
Own the end-to-end customer journey
Splitit places your sports retail brand at the heart of every transaction, ensuring that you maintain complete control over the customer experience. Unlike traditional BNPL providers that redirect customers or display competing offers, our white-label solution keeps your brand front and center.
By managing the entire journey, you can tailor the shopping experience to reflect your brand’s unique values and drive repeat business – critical for building long-term customer relationships in the competitive sports and outdoor adventure market.
Use existing credit for financing
Splitit mitigates the high risks associated with legacy BNPL by utilizing existing credit, eliminating the need for underwriting and protecting your shoppers’ credit ratings. This is particularly valuable for outdoor gear purchases, camping equipment, and sports equipment, where customers often have significant available credit but prefer manageable monthly payments.
Plus, shoppers get all the benefits of paying with their credit card, including rewards, transaction insurance, and protection against fraud – benefits they lose with traditional BNPL loans.
No registrations or redirects
Splitit embeds into your current purchase flow, allowing any consumer with an active credit card to use the service – there’s no registration or application needed.
Our seamless integration keeps the checkout smooth and straightforward, resulting in higher conversion rates and a checkout that is quick, easy, and secure for your shoppers.
Boost transaction values with adventure and sports equipment financing
With Splitit’s card-linked installments there’s no arbitrary purchase limit. Customers can maximize their purchasing potential using their existing available credit, leading to higher transaction values.
This is ideal for:
- High-end fitness equipment
- Premium outdoor gear and camping equipment
- Adventure gear and hiking equipment
- Professional sports equipment
- Hunting and fishing gear
- Winter sports equipment
- Water sports and marine equipment
- Seasonal outdoor gear bundles
Drive more sporting equipment conversions
Our integrated technology delivers over 85% approval rates, versus an industry norm of 35%-40%. With no applications, underwriting or SSN required, there is no friction at the checkout.
For sports and outdoor adventure retailers, this means:
- Capture more seasonal sales during peak outdoor activity periods
- Convert browsers into buyers for high-ticket camping and adventure gear
- Reduce cart abandonment on expensive outdoor equipment
- Appeal to prime customers with excellent credit who love outdoor adventures
Zero default risk
Splitit operates with customers’ existing credit cards – their installment payment plan lives within the limits of their existing credit card. This means there’s no risk of defaulting on payment – should a customer miss their payments, the total order amount will be charged to their card.
