Common use of Split Shipment Clause in Contracts

Split Shipment. You will have a split shipment (also referred to as a split fulfillment) if a single purchase order results in multiple shipments of bought goods. This happens, for instance, when a cardholder has run out of stock. • If you have to split the shipment of an order, you may consider each authorisation request as part of the original purchase and may submit these authorisations with the original authentication data. • If a dispute develops between you and a cardholder, you must be able to show that these authorisation requests were related to the original, client authenticated purchase transaction. • The total amount of the split transaction must not be more than 15% of the original authentication amount. The 15% variation allows for shipping costs associated with the items.
