Splitit says it is unlike other buy now pay later companies in that it does not issue new debt for shoppers. Splitit enables ecommerce merchants to offer interest-free monthly installment payments to their customers at the point of sale. Customers do not have to apply for a new credit line or qualify for a new credit card.

For merchants, having this additional payment option can mean increased conversion rates, higher average tickets, increased customer satisfaction and reduced barriers to purchase.
