Whether a payment can be split across multiple payment methods depends entirely on the business receiving the payment.
Maroo securely processes payments on behalf of businesses, but each business sets its own payment preferences and rules. Because of this, split payment availability may vary from one business to another.
How Split Payments Work
Each business using Maroo has full control over:
The payment methods they accept (e.g., credit card, debit card, bank transfer)
How their invoices are structured
Whether partial or split payments are permitted
Any limits or requirements tied to payments
Maroo processes payments according to the options the business has enabled. If a split payment option does not appear at checkout, it typically means the business has not activated that setting.
How to Create an Invoice with Split Payments
To enable split payments, you’ll need to create an itemized invoice. Split payments are structured through multiple payment schedules within the invoice.
Follow the steps below to create an invoice with split payments:
From your Maroo dashboard, navigate to Invoices and click Create Invoice
Select Itemized Invoice.
Fill out the required client and invoice information.
Add your invoice details, including:
Item name (such as event expenses)
Invoice amount
Quantity
Tax status (taxable or non-taxable)
To divide the total into multiple payment schedules, click “Add Payment.”
You can add multiple payment schedules based on the agreement between you and your client.
This allows the total balance to be split into installments.
📝 You can also save the invoice as a template for future use. This allows you to quickly create similar invoices for other clients without having to re-enter the same information each time, saving you time and ensuring consistency across your billing.
Confirm the allowed payment methods for the invoice.
⚠️ Important: Please note that processing fees may vary depending on the selected payment method. Be sure to review the applicable fees before finalizing the invoice to avoid any surprises for you or your client.
Review all details carefully, then click Create Invoice to finalize.
⚠️ Before submitting, please review all the details carefully to ensure everything is accurate and to avoid any errors or the need for corrections. Scroll to the bottom of the page and click “Create Invoice.”
Click “Send Invoice” to automatically notify your client, or copy the link below to share it through email, social media, SMS, or other platforms.
Once created, your client will receive the invoice with the defined payment schedule and can complete each installment accordingly.
What customers can do
If you’d like to divide a payment — for example, between two cards or between a card and a bank transfer — the best next step is to contact the business directly.
They will be able to:
Confirm whether split payments are supported
Provide guidance on how to proceed
Offer alternative payment arrangements if available
📝 Note: If split payments are not available, this is usually due to the business’s payment settings rather than a system limitation.
