Affirm is a financial technology platform that revolutionized how consumers pay for purchases through flexible installment plans. Founded to make it easier and more transparent for people to afford the things they want, Affirm offers point-of-sale financing that can be used at thousands of merchants online and in-store, from fashion and electronics to home goods and travel.

The platform operates on a simple model: consumers can split their purchases into manageable payments over time, typically without hidden fees or compounding interest. Affirm works directly with retailers to provide instant financing decisions at checkout, enabling seamless integration into the shopping experience across multiple channels including mobile apps, websites, and physical retail locations.
