Cannot see any benefit to this way of paying?!?! Granted its easy to link and so on, but the whole amount is deducted from my credit card so its pretty useless as you cannot use the credit anyway. Seems very dumb to me. If you have the money in your credit card, then just pay for the item. Wont ever buy with Float involved as there is really no real benefit.

Using Float as a payment method is effortless. I get updates in advance about when my payments are due as well as when payments has been received. Being able to “Float” my purchases makes life more affordable! I hope more businesses will offer Float as a payment method!

I used Float a few years back to purchase studio equipment cuz I couldn't afford the lump sum up-front. It was AWESOME to not have to take a loan to get myself up and running. It's now 4 years later and I've managed to produce and release music thanks to Float helping me back when I needed it!
