Splitit, the only global payment platform that enables shoppers to pay installments via their credit cards, announces it has raised $71.5 million dollars in a private placement and share purchase plan (“SPP”). The fundraise has attracted a number of top institutional investors including Woodson Capital Management, L.P.
“Especially now, we are pleased to offer Splitit shoppers the chance to responsibly manage their cash flow needs without incurring new debt.”
This fundraise comes after last month’s announcement by Splitit of record Q2 growth as the company continues to drive conversion and increase Average Order Value (AOV) for e-commerce merchants. The funds will be used to accelerate sales and marketing, plus further investments in product and technology.
