Punchmark has partnered with Sezzle to offer our clients the ability to provide a zero risk online financing option. For a small percentage of your sale, this will allow your users to purchase an order (up to $1,000) by splitting the cost into 4 easy interest-free installments over 6 weeks. The best part: you get paid in full, immediately! 

Sezzle also has a long term financing option available for 0-18 months. The Sezzle long term financing implementation is easily accessible and available to merchants through the same sign up process as our Pay In 4 product. All merchants sign ups are subject to approval.

The Benefits of Sezzle on Your Punchmark Website

Sezzle integrates seamlessly with Punchmark websites. Having it as a payment option will enhance not only the user-experience, but increase your online revenue.

  • Increased Payment Options
    A large percentage of abandoned carts are because of lack of payment options. Sezzle is a trusted form of online purchasing which will help bring in more sales.

  • Larger Online Purchases
    As Sezzle lets a user split payments into four installments this will encourage larger purchases.

  • Reach a Wider Audience
    By providing online financing, this will give you the ability to target and appeal to a wider demographic that you previously weren't able to.

  • Zero Financial Risk
    Sezzle assumes all credit risk. You, as the business owner, will be paid in full immediately.
