About this Tool
Affirm: Buy now, pay over time
Affirm is a buy-now-pay-later app that lets shoppers split purchases into monthly installments with transparent terms and no hidden fees.
The Affirm app lets users manage their payment schedules, view upcoming due dates, and make payments directly from their mobile device. Users can also access Affirm’s virtual card for use at merchants that don’t natively integrate with the platform, expanding where the service can be used.
Affirm performs a soft credit check at the time of application, which does not affect the user’s credit score. Approval decisions are made in real time, and the service offers a range of repayment terms depending on the purchase amount and merchant. Affirm generates revenue by charging merchants a fee for each transaction, and in some cases charges interest to consumers on longer-term plans.
