Float is a checkout payment solution that enables shoppers to split purchases into interest-free, fee-free monthly instalments using their existing Visa or Mastercard credit card, without any application or credit check.
Think of it like an interest-free ‘budget facility’ – shoppers get to enjoy their purchases today and pay for them over time and they don’t take out any extra debt to do so, either.
With Float, you can enjoy your purchases today and pay for them over time, interest-free and fee-free, without incurring any new debt.
Float helps you to manage your cashflow by only charging your credit card for a single interest-free instalment each month, as opposed to charging you the full amount up-front like a regular credit card transaction. In short – we buy you all the time in the world to settle your credit card balance. This is especially useful for those BIG value purchases.
The cherry on top? You still get all your rewards points for using your credit card!
Yes – Keeping your information secure is a top priority for us.
Float uses a PCI DSS Level 1 certified processor (the highest level of credit card data security standards) to handle your credit card data. This means we never store your credit card details and they always remain safely and securely encrypted. Float also makes use of 3D Secure to approve your initial payment authorisation, for an added level of security.
We also fully comply with POPIA in how we handle your personal information. For full details of our Privacy Policy click here.
At the time of purchase, Float temporarily “reserves” the full amount on your credit card, but only charges you the first interest-free instalment. The remaining instalments are charged on the same day each month. In between each instalment, a new temporary “reserve” is placed for the outstanding balance, until your purchase is completely repaid.
You can use Float in 3 easy steps. There is no application and no credit check.
No – when you use Float to make a purchase, there is no application or registration whatsoever.
Because Float uses your existing credit card, we only require your credit card details and that you have the full amount of your purchase available on your credit card. Simple as that.
Float does not impose any limits on the size of purchases – we simply work within the available limit on your credit card. The bigger your available limit, the bigger the purchase you can make!
However, some merchants set their own maximum purchase value for Float transactions. Please contact them directly if you’d like to make a purchase larger than their maximum purchase value.
Float works with any Visa or Mastercard credit card. As with any other credit card purchase, you need to ensure that you have the full purchase amount available on your credit card.
No. Float only accepts Visa and Mastercard credit cards with the full purchase amount available in your balance.
