Scalapay shopper experience

Set up Scalapay promotional messaging

Show shoppers the option to pay in instalments before they reach checkout, which can help improve conversion by surfacing Scalapay's payment plans earlier in the shopping journey.

First, add the Scalapay widget script to the <head> of your product, cart, and checkout pages.

HTML
1<script type="module" src="https://cdn.scalapay.com/widget/scalapay-widget-loader.js?version=V5"></script>

Then add a <scalapay-widget> element wherever you want the widget to appear, referencing the CSS selector of the price it should calculate instalments from. Scalapay recommends displaying the widget at three touch points in the purchase process.

Place the widget below the product price.

Place the widget below the cart total.

Display Scalapay alongside your other payment methods at checkout by adding type="checkout" to the widget.
