More consumers may be planning for a wellness getaway, whether it’s for a few hours, a weekend or even a workation. And yet, demands on time or concerns about budget may be limiting factors in their plans. Imagine how valuable and satisfying the experience becomes when they find a spa that offers a convenient way to pay over time for all the services and retail products they want.
Cardholders surveyed said they would spend, on average, $360 more a year at the spa if they could use their CareCredit credit card.1
On the way to well-being.
When potential clients find out the spa they’d like to visit offers a flexible way to pay, that can be the catalyst they need to book an appointment. A payment solution for clients can be a value-added advantage for your spa, too, as it helps attract business and build loyalty.

A payment solution that adds value for your clients.
Your clients come to your spa to relax and rejuvenate, and payment worries shouldn’t get in the way. That’s why many spas accept the CareCredit health, wellness and personal care credit card. CareCredit is not only flexible, it’s different from general purpose credit cards because its cardholders can take advantage of promotional financing options. When your spa is part of the CareCredit network, your clients can:
• Take advantage of a No Interest if Paid in Full within 6 Months promotional financing option on purchases of $200 or more.
• Purchase services and same-day packages, as well as retail products. Clients may be open to a wider range of treatment levels or special packages, which can provide you with opportunities to offer additional services and retail products without discounting the price.
• Return more often and, if approved, they can use their card again and again for all types of spa services and retail products. In fact, 90 percent of cardholders say they are likely or very likely to use their CareCredit card again.3 That can help clients return and enjoy spa services more frequently.
Valuable tools & resources for your spa.
When your spa accepts CareCredit, you get paid in just two business days. You also gain access to an extensive range of free marketing and business tools, such as:
- A listing in the Acceptance Locator, that makes it easy to find locations that accept CareCredit, and receives, on average, 1.5+ million searches each month.4 CareCredit has 11.7 million cardholders with $39+ billion in available credit, which could help you attract new visitors and expand your client base.
- Preparing for Financial Discussions, with tips and scripted examples to help your staff quickly learn how to discuss cost and promotional financing with clients.
- A contactless way to pay, with a custom QR code your guests simply scan on their mobile device to learn about CareCredit, see if they prequalify, apply privately and, if approved, use their account to pay right away.
More satisfying spa visits.
It’s no surprise clients want a spa experience that provides relaxation, less stress and the best overall value. Giving them an easy payment solution with promotional financing options helps make the experience more positive, and keeps them coming back. It’s that simple.
