“Interest free finance is undoubtedly the most popular finance option amongst customers. While you’ll need to pay subsidies when a customer takes 0% finance, many of our retailers see an uplift in sales as a result of this finance option being available. Our own research tells us that 53% of customers wouldn’t have made a purchase without interest free finance being available, with 38% of those surveyed saying they spent more due to the availability of our finance.

Our team works hard to ensure you’re seeing an uplift in sales as a result of interest free finance being available. We will always make sure your finance options support your margins, and can adjust minimum spend, term and required deposit to improve profitability where appropriate. For sectors concerned about profit margin, this insight can be invaluable.

Ultimately, consumers are used to seeing interest free options available when they shop and it’s something many are coming to expect from their retailers. So while interest free finance can be a great way to actively drive sales, it’s also a deterrent to losing sales to competitors who offer different ways to pay too.

Why offer 0% finance to customers?

Attract new customers

Interest free finance is a powerful promotional tool. Get customers through the door or drive traffic to your site by offering flexible ways to pay.

Convert browsers into buyers

Committing to a big purchase can feel like a big decision. Interest free finance takes some of this pressure away, giving customers more confidence to buy.

Prevent abandoned baskets

Many customers prefer to budget for a monthly payment rather than parting with a large amount upfront – so providing an interest free option makes the purchasing decision much easier.

Increase average order value

With interest free finance allowing a big purchase to fit nicely into a customer’s monthly budget, customers can buy what they really want, even if it’ll cost them a bit more.

Improve customer loyalty

Offering a flexible payment option with no additional costs is likely to impress your customers. And once they’ve had a great experience with you, they’re more likely to return.

Stay ahead of your competitors

If you’re not offering payment options that suit your customers, they’ll go elsewhere. Always give customers a reason to shop with you instead of your competitors.
