What is Sezzle?
Sezzle is a payment solution that gives you the freedom to buy now and pay later—with no interest! When you complete a purchase with Sezzle, The Wanderful will process your order as if you have just paid the entire price—but you will have only paid a fraction of the cost.
Does Sezzle perform a credit check?
Sezzle completes what’s known as a “soft check,” which means they take a look at your credit score as part of their risk check—but this doesn’t impact your credit score.
Sezzle uses this information to help verify your identity and approve you for Sezzle.
How does Sezzle work?
- Select Sezzle as your payment method during checkout.
- New Sezzle customers will need to create a Sezzle account, returning Sezzle customers will need to login.
- Sezzle will do a soft credit check for approval of the transaction.
- As little as 25% is due at the time of the purchase, with the remaining amount spread out over equal installments (typically three), each two weeks apart.
- Sezzle automates the remaining payments through whichever payment method is on file.
- No interest or processing fees are charged to you - as long as you pay everything off on time, you only pay for what you ordered!
Sezzle says the payments are interest-free. What's the catch?
No catch here! Sezzle is completely interest-free for shoppers.
The Wanderful pays Sezzle a fee, so shoppers have the freedom to buy now and pay later. As long as you pay your installments on time, you’ll only pay for what you purchased—free from interest and processing fees!
Does Sezzle hurt my credit score?
Sezzle will not have an impact on your credit - they do not perform hard credit checks. Instead, they perform "soft checks" by reviewing your credit score as part of their risk check.
Is Sezzle secure?
Yes! Sezzle undergos quarterly scans and yearly audits to ensure your data is safely stored in our systems – and to maintain compliance at the highest level in the Payment Card Industry (PCI): PCI Level 1.
Who can use Sezzle?
To use Sezzle, you must be 18 years or older* and have a valid phone number based out of either the United States or Canada.
You will also need to have an email address as well as a payment method ready at checkout - Sezzle accepts all major debit and credit cards, and you can also link a bank account directly. At this time, prepaid cards are not able to be used to place orders, but you can use them to pay off existing orders.
*You must be 19 years or older in Alabama, or if you are a ward of the state and live in Nebraska.
What if I want to return or exchange a purchase?
Returns and/or exchanges follow the same process as any other purchase at The Wanderful, regardless of payment method.
If you return some or all of your order, installments will be adjusted by Sezzle and you will be refunded what you have already paid.
Why was my order not approved?
Sezzle tries to offer all applicants a simple payment plan, but unfortunately, they're not always able to approve every order. Their system assesses every order individually, taking into account your available funds, outstanding orders, and the total cost of the order you’re trying to place. If you’re not approved for any reason, they'll notify you right away.
Here are a few reasons you may have been denied:
- Insufficient funds. Typically, they check to make sure you have at least 25% of the total order cost available at the time you place an order.
- Too new to Sezzle. The longer you use Sezzle, the better your chances of getting approved. Usually, they're less restrictive after the first six weeks.
- Outstanding balance(s). The amount you owe on previous orders through Sezzle and the number of open orders on your account both impact your chances of being approved by Sezzle. Paying off your outstanding balances can improve your chances of getting approved.
- Order value. Reducing the total cost of your order, or splitting it into two or three smaller transactions, can improve your chances of getting approved.
- Payments linked to your account. Adding another debit or credit card to your Sezzle account helps them understand your repayment ability, which can help get you approved.
