NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Splitit (ASX:SPT), the company empowering consumers to use their existing line of credit to pay in installments, announced a partnership with ChargeAfter, the leading global network of personalized buy now pay later (BNPL) and point-of-sale financing for merchants, adding Splitit to complement its existing portfolio of consumer financing offerings. Splitit will be the first financing-free installment payment option available on the platform.
Merchants using ChargeAfter can now offer their shoppers Splitit, a more intuitive and flexible way to leverage the hard-earned credit on their existing credit cards to spread payments out over time. No applications, no fees and no hassle. Because Splitit rewards customers for their good credit, shoppers can easily take advantage of installment payments without adding another line of credit.

The benefit for merchants offering Splitit is attracting and boosting conversion rates of higher-value customers. Splitit’s average order value (AOV) is over $1,000 -- four times higher than most other Buy Now, Pay Later alternatives.
“The partnership with ChargeAfter extends our reach introducing Splitit to even more merchants and shoppers,” notes Splitit CEO Brad Paterson. “Not every consumer is looking to open a new line of credit for the purchase and just want a smarter way to use the credit they have already earned. We serve this type of shopper by giving them the flexibility to use their existing credit cards to spread payments over time without additional fees.”
