Instalments in Israel

Credit Installment

You can offer consumers a credit installment plan with a selection of the number of installments, subject to the ABS terminal's issuer parameters.

• The customer will provide the number of installments

• This installment type carries interest fees

• The payment terms (period, fees, etc.) are between the cardholder and the issuer (Verifone is not part of it)

• Verifone does not manage the following installments

Standard installments

You can offer consumers an installment plan with a selection of the number of installments and an option to set the first installment amount.

• The first installment amount and the number of payments will be decided by the merchant and consumer

• The amount of the following installments is the quotient of the total purchase amount minus the first amount, divided by the number of remaining installments. No interest fees are charged.

• Verifone does not need to manage the following payments

Virtual Terminal

If you are using a Virtual terminal and you select instalments the values selected will be visible in a second step as follows.

Set up installment transactions via Checkout API

Additional information can be reviewed in the Checkout API documentation.

1. Configure credit_term schema based on the table. Combinations of fields that are not described in the table will be rejected. Table

   Installments with different first payment	INSTALMENT_STANDARD	FINAL_AUTH PRE_AUTH	true no	no	NO	MAIL, TELEPHONE
   Installments with equal payments	INSTALMENT_STANDARD	FINAL_AUTH PRE_AUTH	true no	no	YES	ECOMMERCE

2. Configure number_of_instalments <= configurations.card.max_number_of_instalments.
