Sezzle FAQ

 What’s Sezzle and How Does It Work?

UPDATED 5/31/2020 - $50 minimum order to check out with Sezzle.

Sezzle is a payment solution that empowers you to “Buy Now and Pay Later” with simple, interest-free installment plans. 

Sezzle splits your purchase into 4 payments, automatically deducted from your bank account every two weeks.

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!

Once you’re ready to check out, select Sezzle as a payment method. If you're a returning shopper, you'll just need to log in. If you're a new shopper, Sezzle will walk you step-by-step through creating an account and linking a payment method.

After you’re approved and you complete checkout, DawnTayler Boutique will ship your products just like we would with any other payment method. 

You will be notified at checkout what sort of payment plan you’re approved for, including how much is due upfront and when the next payments are due.  Sezzle will charge the first installment amount the day that you place your order, and the rest will be automatically scheduled. Don't worry - Sezzle will send you text and email reminders, so there aren't any surprises!

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.

How Can I Sign Up For Sezzle?

You can either sign up and get your account set up directly through the Sezzle website, or you can sign up as you check out at on our site!  Either option will walk you through the same signup process. 

To get signed up, you will need to have a working phone number based out of the US or Canada, as well as a payment method (debit/credit card or bank account) to link to your account.

How Are Payments Made?

Sezzle collects your first payment when you place the order with us.  You're always notified of the amount upfront, which could be as little as 25% of your total order cost.

The remaining payments will be spread out over your repayment schedule - you can always view the dates and amounts by logging into your Sezzle Shopper Dashboard.  

Sezzle Says the Payments Are Interest Free...What’s the Catch?

No catch here! Sezzle is completely interest-free for shoppers.  DawnTayler pays Sezzle a fee, so you 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 ordered—free from interest and processing fees!

We understand that life can throw some curveballs - so if you can't make a payment on an order, Sezzle even lets you reschedule a payment for free. If you need to make further reschedules, each one will be assessed a $5 fee.

If a payment does fail, usually due to a card being canceled or there not being enough funds available in your account at the time, a $10 failed payment fee will be added on to that payment. This is separate from any overdraft fees your bank may charge you.  Sezzle will send you text and email notifications to make sure you're never surprised, and if you get the failed payment resolved within 48 hours of it failing, they will even waive that fee.

Once a fee has been paid, there is no way to reverse it.

Does Sezzle Do 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 have an impact to your credit score. Sezzle uses this information to help verify your identity, minimize fraud risk, and approve you for Sezzle!

What’s the Checkout Process Using Sezzle?

Checking out with Sezzle is fast and easy. Here’s how it works:

1. Select Sezzle at checkout.

2. Log into your Sezzle account. Or, if you don’t have an account yet, create an account and add your payment method.

3. Keep your phone nearby! Sezzle will send a one-time password to your mobile phone to help you check out securely.

4. Once approved, you’ll see a breakdown of your order, including how much is due upfront and how much is due with each future payment.

Complete the rest of the checkout process as normal. You’ll receive an email from Sezzle confirming your order. If you have questions about your payment or want to check on payment amounts and due dates, simply log into your Sezzle dashboard.

Why Wasn’t My Sezzle Payment Option Approved?

Sezzle tries to offer all applicants a simple payment plan, but unfortunately, they aren’t always able to approve every order. Sezzle’s 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 will notify you right away.

Here are a few reasons you may have been denied:

• Insufficient funds. Typically, Sezzle checks 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 are less restrictive after the first six weeks.

• Outstanding balance(s). The amount you owe on previous orders 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 and order 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.

  Keep in mind: Just because you’re not approved by Sezzle today, doesn’t mean you won’t be tomorrow. Every order is unique – so keep using Sezzle!

Returning a Sezzle Order?

An order made with Sezzle can be returned according to our return policy, and you will be issued store credit. Please note your personal agreement with Sezzle will still stand and you will continue to pay any scheduled repayments and/or late fees.
