We’re excited to introduce the Partial.ly Payment Plan app for Stripe—a powerful new way to manage customer payments.

Directly from your Stripe dashboard, you can:

• Send payment plans straight from uncollected invoices, or
• Create a plan directly from the customer’s Stripe profile—no invoice required.

Either way, you give your customers the flexibility they need while ensuring you get paid on time. It’s a simple upgrade that transforms the way you bill, without adding operational overhead. Let’s explore how Partial.ly can take your billing and collections to the next level.

Higher Conversion with Flexible Payment Options

Big invoices can overwhelm customers, even when they value your product or service. By breaking costs into smaller, scheduled installments, you make invoices feel manageable—and customers are more likely to approve quickly.

For example:

• A $3,000 invoice becomes 6 monthly payments of $500.
• A $1,200 service for weekly meetings becomes 12 weekly payments of $100.

When customers see flexible options that match their budget, they’re more likely to commit—boosting your conversion rates and closing more deals.

Expand Your Collection Success on Unpaid Invoices

Having trouble collecting unpaid invoices? Offering a plan that meets your customer’s budget can increase the chance of collecting on overdue invoices—without damaging the customer relationship. It’s a practical, customer-friendly way to recover revenue that might otherwise be lost.

Control the Terms to Your Business Needs

Partial.ly doesn’t just add flexibility for your customers—it keeps you in control. You decide the structure of each plan, including:

• The upfront deposit or down payment
• The frequency of payments (weekly, biweekly, monthly, etc.)
• The length of the plan

This flexibility means you can align payment schedules with your cash flow needs. Want to require a deposit before starting work? Easy. Prefer shorter terms to reduce risk? Done. Need longer terms for higher-ticket services? You’re in charge.

No Credit Checks = Faster Approvals

Unlike financing providers that require lengthy applications and credit checks, Partial.ly keeps things simple.

Customers don’t have to submit paperwork or wait for third-party approval. They just accept your plan terms, and payments begin automatically.

The result?

• Faster invoice approvals
• Less friction for your customers
• More deals closed without barriers

Reduce Work with Automated Payments and Notifications

Chasing late invoices drains time and resources. With Partial.ly, that hassle disappears.

Once a customer signs up for a plan:

• Payments are automatically collected on the schedule you set.
• Confirmations and reminders are sent automatically.
• Balances are tracked in both Stripe and Partial.ly dashboards.

The result: you spend less time tracking payments and more time focusing on growing your business.

Global Reach

Stripe supports over 135 currencies and dozens of payment methods, meaning you can offer installment plans to customers worldwide—expanding your reach and making it easier to serve global clients.

Every release is a chance to boost sales, build loyalty, and grow your collectible business. But high price points and long preorder windows can turn excitement into abandoned carts. Partial.ly bridges the gap by offering flexible payment plans that let customers spread the cost over time, for one or even multiple orders. Let’s go over how Partial.ly can help you increase conversions and minimize cancellations.

Customize Plans for Release Schedules

Every collectible release is different. With Partial.ly, you can:

• Set plans that finish just before a preorder ships so the item is fully paid before the release day.
• Offer longer terms for premium statues or limited editions still in production.
• Provide shorter, flexible plans for in-stock items.

Collectors appreciate knowing they can secure their preorder now and finish payments when it’s ready.

Secure Early Commitment and Revenue With Deposits

With preorders and made-to-order collectibles, customers can lock in their purchase through a payment plan deposit. This gives you upfront revenue, even if the product won’t ship until a later release date. For example,

• Collect a deposit (e.g., 20%) to start building or to secure the product with the manufacturer.
• Schedule the remaining balance on automatic installments, so payments continue without extra work.
• Or, if the timeline is uncertain, manually process balances once the preorder is ready to ship.

When customers commit to preorders with payment plans, you’ll have a clear picture of demand before production or fulfillment begins.

Reduce Cart Abandonment

Sticker shock is one of the biggest reasons customers abandon carts, especially on preorder launches. A payment plan option right at checkout eliminates that barrier and helps collectors secure their item before it sells out.

When fans are excited about a new release, payment plans give them a way to commit immediately—spreading out the cost while locking in their order.

You can also enable our abandoned cart feature that lets you automatically send rescue emails for abandoned Partial.ly checkouts.

Save Time and Automate

Chasing down balances eats into your time. Partial.ly automates the process so you don’t have to:

• Payments are charged automatically on schedule.
• Customers and merchants receive notifications for every installment.
• Less admin work, more focus on your next release.

Customer Loyalty and Repeat Purchases

Collectors rarely stop at one piece. When customers know they can reserve multiple items and spread the cost over time, they’re more likely to:

• Open more than one plan at once.
• Return for future releases.
• Expand their collection with confidence.

Payment plans don’t just close today’s sale—they build long-term loyalty and repeat purchases.

Conclusion

Travel often comes with a big price tag — and that can scare away even the most excited clients. Partial.ly can give you a competitive edge by allowing travelers to spread the cost of their trip over time, such as:

• Cruise packages
• Guided Tours and excursions
• Vacation rentals
• Custom travel itineraries
• Event-based travel such as retreats, conferences, or festivals

Let’s explore how Partial.ly can help you increase travel sales, boost trip reservations, and grow your customer base.

Make Big Packages More Accessible

High-ticket trips often trigger sticker shock. But Partial.ly enables your travelers to break up the cost into manageable payments, making once-expensive vacations more accessible. This helps you reduce cart abandonment and gives customers the confidence to book without hesitation. Features that make this possible include:

• Flexible Terms: Customers can choose their payment schedule from a range set by you, allowing them to spread the cost in a way that fits their budget. For example, let customers select a downpayment between 10% and 50% of the total. Allow them to pay between every 1 and 4 weeks.
• Final Payment Dates: Have all installments completed before the trip, giving peace of mind to both you and your travelers. For example, if a cruise is leaving in July, require the plan be paid in full within 60 days of the trip.
  

Upsell Premium Add-Ons

When payment plans remove the financial barrier, travelers feel more comfortable saying “yes” to add-ons such as:

• Excursions and activities
• Room upgrades or suites
• Private guides or experiences

Even better, you can add extras to a plan anytime, letting travelers upgrade their trip as they go. Check out our quick guide to see how: How to Add to a Plan.

With Partial.ly’s flexible payment plan software, convert hesitant customers into confident buyers by offering customized payment offers that work for your business.

You may be wondering, "What payment terms will work best for my business?" This article explores what an offer is and provides insight into creating effective offers that attract customers and help drive your business's success.

What is an Offer?

A payment plan offer serves as a reusable template with preset terms. You can use an offer to open multiple payment plans, saving you time and ensuring consistency. The customizable terms consist of:

• Down Payment: the amount required to open the plan
• Payment Frequency: how often a payment is processed
• Term Length: how long the plan will last

Once a plan is opened with your offer, our platform will automatically process payments according to the terms, creating a hassle-free payment processing experience.

How to Use Payment Offers to Boost Sales

You can implement payment offers in multiple ways to reach your audience:

• 🌐 Add offers to your website
• 📩 Share offer links on social media or via email
• 📱 Print scannable QR codes for in-store displays or printed marketing materials

You can use just one offer, or create multiple ones to use for different products, services, or scenarios, such as:

• 🛍️ Different products or price points
• 🎉 Special promotions or seasonal sales
• 🔄 Repeat buyers vs. new customers
• 🌎 Domestic vs. international shoppers

Customizing Offer Variables to Meet Your Needs

Your offer terms are fully adjustable and can be edited anytime. Here’s how to tailor them:

Down Payment:

• Want faster access to funds? Require more upfront.
• Want to drive volume? Go lower to reduce purchase hesitation.

Payment Frequency:

• Weekly,
• Biweekly,
• Monthly,
• Specific day(s) of the month.

Term Length:

• Short terms encourage faster turnover;
• Long terms make high-ticket items more accessible.

The Power of Flexibility

You can also offer customers flexibility within your payment plans, letting them choose terms from a range you set. This flexibility allows:

• Adjustable down payments
• Flexible payment frequencies
• Custom term lengths
• Personalized start dates

By allowing customers to select terms that fit their financial situation, you're more likely to close sales and reduce cart abandonment.

Automatic vs Manual offers

Partial.ly supports two types of offers:

Automatic Offers: These follow a fixed schedule. Once the plan is opened, Partial.ly automatically processes each payment based on the offer’s terms. Best for:

• 🔄 Recurring services
• 📅 Pre-orders with firm release dates
• 💳 Layaway programs
• ✈️ Scheduled events and travel
• 🧾 Collection payments

Manual Offers: These allow payments to be made manually at any time and in any amount until the balance is paid. Best for:

• 📦 Products with flexible or unknown delivery dates
• 🛠️ Projects or services with variable timelines
• 🕒 Customers who prefer full control over payment timing

Industry-Specific Offer Strategies: What Works Best

Businesses across industries are already growing with Partial.ly. Here’s how they’re using offers:

• Collectibles & Product Drops: Create plans with fixed due dates to ensure full payment before a release date—perfect for limited editions and pre-orders.
• Travel & Events: Require full payment 30 days before the trip or event while allowing flexible installment plans in the lead-up.
• Health & Wellness Services: Offer recurring payments for multi-session packages like therapy, coaching, or fitness training.
• Jewelry & High-Ticket Retail: Attract high-value customers with longer-term options and low down payments—without compromising cash flow.

Whatever your niche, Partial.ly lets you structure offers that feel custom-fit to your business and your audience.

How to Match Payment Offers to Customer Needs

To build offers that truly convert, it’s critical to understand your audience's needs and behaviors. Here’s how you could gather those insights:

Analyze Purchase History
Examine abandoned carts. Is there a price threshold where conversions drop? Offering payment plans at these points may boost sales.

Already using Partial.ly? Review your payment plan data to identify which terms resulted in completed payments and which led to defaults or cancellations.

Consider Your Customer Type
Are your customers price-sensitive or service-driven? Are they one-time buyers or long-term clients? Adjust terms based on their habits and expectations.

Test and Adapt
Offers can be modified at any time. Not seeing the results you want from a 3-month plan? Try offering a 6-month option and compare performance.

Rescue Offers
Partial.ly can automatically email a special offer to customers who abandon the Partial.ly checkout process, giving you another opportunity to provide payment terms that match their needs. If this rescue offer attracts more sign-ups, consider making it your primary offer.

Survey Your Customers
Ask directly. What payment frequency would they prefer? Would lower upfront costs increase their likelihood to purchase? Use customer feedback to guide your strategy.

Conclusion

Creating effective payment plan offers with Partial.ly means balancing your business’s needs with your customers’ expectations. By understanding your buyers, testing different strategies, and making use of Partial.ly’s flexible tools, you can craft payment plan offers that reduce cart abandonment, increase conversions, and improve customer loyalty.

✅ 30-Day Free Trial

After your free trial, Advanced Scripting is just $10/month—a small investment for powerful control over your payment plan strategy.

Order Minimums

If you want to reserve Partial.ly plans for larger purchases—say, $300 and up—you can do exactly that with our Advanced Scripting Subscription.

Here’s why merchants love to use this feature:

✅ Protect Profit Margins – Small-ticket items may not justify the transaction fees or processing time involved in payment plans. Limiting plans to higher-value orders keeps things cost-effective.

✅ Encourage Larger Orders – Want to incentivize upsells? Customers may be more likely to increase their cart size if they know a payment plan kicks in at $300.

✅ Streamline Operations – Fewer, larger payment plan orders are easier to manage than a high volume of small ones.

✅ Maintain Brand Strategy – If your business wants to position payment plans as a premium offering, restricting them to higher-priced items helps reinforce that.

Limit to Specific Product Type(s)

Not every product needs a payment plan—and with Partial.ly Advanced Scripting, you get full control over where and when plans are available.

Let’s say you only want to offer payment plans on:

🛒 Preorders – Make big-ticket upcoming items more accessible before launch.

🌟 Special Editions – Highlight premium products with flexible payment options.

💸 Full-Price Items Only – Avoid offering payment plans on already-discounted or sale items.

With Advanced Scripting, you can define exactly which products or pricing rules trigger Partial.ly at checkout. That means:

✅ Better alignment with your pricing strategy.

✅ More control over margins.

✅ A streamlined customer experience.

Offers by Price Range

Not all orders are created equal—so why offer the same payment plan terms across the board?

With Partial.ly Advanced Scripting, merchants can customize payment plan terms based on cart value, giving you the power to balance flexibility for your customers with what makes the most sense for your business.

🎯 Here’s how merchants are using this feature:

💳 Smaller Orders = Shorter Terms

For orders under $500, offer shorter plans (e.g., 2 payments over 30 days) to keep things simple and limit risk.

🛍️ Larger Orders = Longer Terms

For orders over $1,000, allow extended terms (e.g., 4–6 payments over 90–120 days) to make bigger purchases more accessible and increase conversions.

📊 Tailored Down Payments

Adjust the initial payment based on cart total—perhaps 50% upfront for lower-cost items, but only 20% down for high-ticket orders.

✅ Benefits of this approach:

• Encourages larger orders by offering more flexible terms.
• Helps manage cash flow and reduce default risk.
• Lets you scale payment options strategically as your store grows.

How to Sign Up

Bring your layaway program into the digital world with Partial.ly's modern, automated payment plans. Let us help you convert more customers - without adding complexity or pushing them into debt.

Why Layaway Still Matters

Today’s go-to payment options often push customers toward instant gratification - but they can also lead to financial overextension. By offering a reliable layaway program, you can help the customer stay on budget and build confidence in their financial decisions.

Use Alongside Other Payment Options

Partial.ly is not a replacement for BNPL or other payment options. It can easily be offered alongside these payment options.

Offering more payment options can lead to higher conversions and less abandoned orders. You can be confident your customers can find the payment solution that works best for them.

Layaway Plans for All Business Types

Industries that have successfully offered layaway options include:

• Jewelry and Luxury Goods: Customers buying engagement rings, custom pieces, or heirloom-quality jewelry often want time to plan — but still want to lock in the piece they love.
• Preorder Collectibles: Pre-orders are a perfect match for modern layaway, whether it’s limited edition drops, rare finds, or high-demand collectibles. Collect deposits and schedule payment plans before launch—turning interest into commitment.
• Wholesalers: Layaway isn’t just for retail—it’s a powerful tool for wholesalers looking to attract more buyers and increase sales. By allowing customers to pay over time, layaway makes bulk purchasing more accessible and reduces financial barriers.
• And many more. From furniture and pools to wellness services like medspas, layaway programs with Partial.ly can expand your customer base.

100% Approval Rating When You Choose Layaway over BNPL

BNPL companies require credit checks or approvals from customers in order to open a payment plan. The only thing that is needed to open a layaway plan with Partial.ly is the downpayment you require, if any.

Buy Now Pay Later (BNPL) solutions also have very low approval rates. By offering layaway with Partial.ly, customers have a 100% approval rate which can drive your conversions higher.

Faster Checkout When No Credit Check Required

Layaway with Partial.ly does not require credit checks, helping you attract a broader range of customers, as well as speeding up the purchase process. This reduces friction for customers and makes it easier for them to complete their transactions.

Flexible & Customizable Payment Terms

With Partial.ly, you can customize every aspect of your layaway plans, from installment schedules to eligibility rules, ensuring they align perfectly with your business model. Whether you need to tailor plans to specific products, set cart minimums, or adjust terms to fit your customers’ needs, Partial.ly gives you the freedom to do it all.

Easily Add to Your Business and Workflow

No matter how you sell, Partial.ly makes it easy to offer layaway to your customers. Whether through your website, social media, email, or in person, you can implement Partial.ly via:

• Direct e-commerce integrations (Squarespace, Shopify, WooCommerce, and more)
• Direct invoicing integrations (Quickbooks, Harvest, Freshbooks)
• Custom website options for non-partner platforms
• Sharable / Embeddable URLs that lead to layaway checkout
• Zapier automations to connect with your existing workflow
• QR codes for in-person or print advertisement
• REST API Access for developers
• White Labeling Available

Simple & Transparent Pricing

• No subscription fees—you only pay a 2% transaction fee.
• Volume discounts available for high-volume merchants.
• No fees for customers (unless you choose to add your own merchant fee).

Increase Conversions & Reduce Abandoned Carts

Cart abandonment is a major challenge, especially for online businesses, often caused by price hesitation or lack of flexible payment options. Offering a layaway solution with Partial.ly can help reduce abandoned carts and boost conversions by giving customers a way to pay over time.

Contribute to Your Customers’ Financial Confidence

When you support better spending habits, your business benefits too. Customers that feel financially secure are more likely to make additional purchases and stay loyal to your brand.

The Importance of an 'About Layaway' Section on Your Website

While offering layaway via Partial.ly is a great step, it’s equally important to educate your customers about your layaway option. A dedicated 'About Layaway with Partial.ly' section on your website helps customers understand how it works and why it benefits them. Here’s why it matters:

• Increases Awareness – Many customers may not realize that flexible payment options are available. A clear, informative section ensures they know about Partial.ly before making a purchase decision.
• Builds Trust – Transparency about payment options builds customer confidence. Providing details about installment structures, terms, and benefits makes them more likely to choose this option.
• Reduces Cart Abandonment – One of the top reasons for abandoned carts is affordability concerns. When customers see that they can split their payments, they are more likely to complete the transaction.
• Make Your Policies Clear - Make sure customers know your policies to prevent any confusion on things like shipping, cancellations, and refunds, especially if these policies differ from upfront payment options. You will want to put these polices in your plan contract as well.
• Encourages Informed Decisions – An educational approach ensures customers understand the advantages of Partial.ly over high-interest credit options, reinforcing responsible spending habits.

And when you’re ready, you can process any remaining balances across all manual plans effortlessly with our batch processing feature, ensuring efficiency without manual follow-ups.

Use Multiple Offers for Different Scenarios

As a merchant, providing flexible payment options is key to increasing conversions and reducing cart abandonment. However, the costs associated with processing and managing payment plans can eat into your profits. With Partial.ly, you don’t have to absorb those costs—our platform allows you to add checkout fees to your payment plans. By adding a checkout fee to cover things like the processing fees for Partial.ly and Stripe, you can keep more of your revenue.

Why Passing Fees to Customers Makes Sense

Offering payment plans is a great way to attract more customers and increase average order values. But processing fees can add up, cutting into your margins. By integrating checkout fees to offset the costs for Partial.ly, Stripe, etc, you can provide customers with flexible financing options while protecting your profits. This approach ensures that you can offer valuable payment solutions without sacrificing your bottom line.

Customers benefit from easy, automated payment plans, and you maintain profitability—it's a win-win situation.

How to Add Checkout Fees to Your Offer

When creating your offer, you will see the option to add a checkout fee:

This fee can be a fixed amount or percentage of the total due. For example, you can add a 5% fee to the offer:

This fee will be added to the total, which is then divided into payments according to the offer's payment terms.

Keep Customers Informed

Transparency is key when implementing checkout fees. Clearly communicate any additional charges upfront so customers understand the cost breakdown. Consider updating your FAQ page and plan contracts to explain the purpose of the fee and how it supports the availability of flexible payment options.
