Splitit announces interest rate reduction via amendment of Goldman Sachs facility

NEW YORK, Aug. 2, 2022

"Last week, the Federal Open Market Committee increased the fed funds rate by 75 basis points. This week, we are very pleased that our funding partner reduced our facility rates in support of our global expansion," notes Splitit CFO Ben Malone. "These valuable savings will further reduce our expenditures, in addition to the operating expenditure reductions initiated throughout H1 2022."

"Splitit continues to remain highly differentiated from legacy BNPL providers. We do not share the sector-wide challenges of rising consumer defaults and reported in our Q2 FY22 Quarterly Report a 9x improvement in year-over-year net transaction margin. Our ability to reduce interest costs at this time is a testament to our unique low-risk model. As we scale, we are confident about our path to profitability," adds Nandan Sheth, Splitit CEO.

Further details regarding the amendment can be found in the company's recent ASX announcement.

Splitit is a global payment solution provider that enables shoppers to use the credit they've earned by breaking up purchases into monthly interest-free installments using their existing credit cards. 

Splitit powers the next generation of Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) through its merchant-branded Installments-as-a-Service platform.
