You can also direct customers to Sezzle’s website or customer support for more details.

Sezzle charges merchants a fee for every transaction. It's a percentage of the sale, but considering the potential increase in conversions and sales, many find it worthwhile. Familiarize yourself with Sezzle's current fee structure.
