Financing
What is Affirm?
An alternative to traditional credit cards, Affirm allows you to pay for items through flexible financing over a period of time. The short and simple application process requires just a couple pieces of information. In most cases, you’ll receive an immediate decision on your eligibility to purchase items with payments over a 3, 6, or 12 month time period.
Affirm only conducts a soft credit check, which won’t affect your credit score. It keeps all sensitive information encrypted and protected using security protocols. There are no late or hidden fees, and you will know the exact terms of your loan options, including APR and monthly payment amounts, so you can select what works best for you.

Affirm FAQs
Does applying for an Affirm loan affect my credit score?
Nope. The pre-qualification process uses your personal information for a "soft credit check" only, which does not affect your all important credit score.
How long does the approval process take?
It's really fast and only takes seconds after completing the application.
What happens after I'm approved?
Affirm will let you know instantly. You will have the option to choose to pay off your loan over 3, 6, or 12 months. Affirm will also state the amount of your fixed, monthly payments and the total amount of interest (if applicable) you’ll pay.
Is there interest?
0% APR is available for 3 month plans. For 6 or 12 month plans, your rate will be between 10-36% based on credit. Payment options depend on your purchase amount, and a down payment may be required.
