Finally working again after a search i found that a simple restart of my device could help solve the problem and it worked so it wasn't updated properly. But now its fixed i can change this review, zilch is amazing and i have been using for years. very handy splitting up big purchase into smaller chunks. also the cash back rewards you get are not much but add up and if you save comes in handy for when Christmas comes round. if you experience a similar problem of the app not loading,try a restart

It's a scam. They offer you credit, and when you pay with the card, it reduces the credit but also takes it out of your linked card, basically paying double. Then, when you contact customer service, they copy and paste a script about "buying now" and "paying later" not helping you with the clear error that's happened. not worth it. save yourself a fee pennies and avoid the app.

I made my first purchase with zilt and Amazon. They did not split the payment into four payments. They took the full ammount. Once I added up the several amounts picking out of my account. The total was actually more than the amount I spent. If you're supposed to be able to take it out in payments of four, there six transactions in an hour and a half? Beware. Be warned Be careful because customer service just repeated when's first payment is paid? My amount that I can use will be upped.
