How Splitit works

Splitit guarantees your purchase, by placing a hold on your credit card, while the total amount is outstanding. This is not a payment, it’s just a pre-authorization that allows you to pay off your balance over time, before accruing any interest. Just pay as you go and Splitit will re-authorize the hold and reduce the amount each month.

Installment plan

You choose the number of monthly payments that suit you and your budget.

Splitit authorizes the full amount of the purchase on your existing credit card and reserves the balance until final payment is made.

First installment

The first installment is charged a few seconds after the purchase authorization or upon shipping.

Reauthorization

Splitit reauthorizes the outstanding amount when the previous authorization is about to expire.

Pay monthly

Splitit will charge your credit card every month until the plan is finished, reducing the hold on your credit line each month by the payment amount.

Frequently asked questions

No, unfortunately not. We are only able to accept credit cards at the present time.

Splitit is supported by Visa, Mastercard, and depending on the merchant, American Express, Discover and UnionPay.

You can find all our terms and conditions here.

Yes.

Splitit helps consumers use their existing credit card to turn purchases into smaller, monthly payments.

The full amount of your purchase is authorized (held) on your credit card to guarantee future payments so you need to have at least that amount in available credit on your card.

The authorization amount reduces with each monthly payment you make until the balance is cleared and we renew these authorizations periodically. The previous authorization is removed as soon as we receive a new one.
