I'm based in Canada - How can I offer monthly installments?

[thermitelabs]

Unfortunately, Shop Pay Monthly Installments is only available to US Stores, is there any international alternative?

I want to offer installment/financing plans to my customers. How can I do this?

Klarna?

Hi, @thermitelabs.

Thank you for reaching out! 

You can definitely offer buy now, pay later installments in Canada. We have a list of available payment gateways, and on that list, it includes, Afterpay and Klarna. Both of these payment providers offer payment installments as a method of payment. 

Please let me know if you have any further questions! I would love to learn more about your business. What type of products do you sell?

None of these options work adequately. They all require the customer to leave the site. The can require a soft credit check. Shopify needs to enable payment instalments at checkout. There is no credit risk. It's just splitting the payment. Why can't this be done?

agreed! this needs to be something that is available for Shop Pay Installments. Please

Hi, @KimAOD & @ssk__.

Thank you for providing that information! 

Currently, Shop Pay installments are only available in the USA. Hopefully, it will be available to Canadain merchants in the near future. 

Please let me know if you have any further questions!

Hi, @evtwelve, @ssk__, @dloewen.

Thank you for reaching out and sharing your feedback on installements offered in Canada. 

I don't have any information on if or when this feature could possibly be available. However, our team is always looking to improve our platform and add features that benefit our merchants and their customers! Hopefully, this will be available soon. 

Take care,

Morning Emily! Any update on when it will be available in Canada?

Thank you

[dloewen]

We would also LOVE to have the option available to us. Any idea where this project is on a priority list? Having a solution through shop pay would be amazing!!! Would really prefer not to have to set up a different provider or jump through other hoops

Shopify is a Canadian company that doesn’t offer the best features to Canadians. Cool 🤦‍♂️

Yep welcome to Shopify. Been here since very early 2012 and service only gets worse and more expensive (for no extra features).
