Quite often, it’s just too much for customers to place a high-ticket order. Even if they are comfortable and have the money, letting go of $500 – $1000 on the beat really holds the strings on their wallet. Offer them flexibility in payment and improve conversion & customer satisfaction.
The PayFlexi Flexible Payment Plans & Fast Checkout for WooCommerce is a WordPress plugin that allows your customers to pay in installments for the products and services at the point of checkout.
