What is Affirm?
Affirm strives to keep you out of unhealthy debt by facilitating fair, transparent credit so you can pay over time for the things you love. We offer affordable monthly payments at a pace you choose—usually 3, 6, or 12 months—so you're in control. From day one, you know how long you'll pay, and you know how much you'll pay because we never charge late fees or other hidden fees.

Affirm products
Installments over 3, 6, or 12 months
At partner stores, you can choose Affirm as a payment method during checkout and seamlessly apply for a loan to pay for your items right then. You can choose to spread your payments out, typically over 3, 6, or 12 months (or more), to pay for your purchase with manageable payments that work with your budget.


4 interest-free payments
Depending on the merchant and your order value, you can make 4 equal payments, every two weeks, so you pay your purchases off quickly with no impact on your credit.


Virtual card
To pay with Affirm at other merchants, you can apply for a loan at affirm.com or in the Affirm app, and you'll get a virtual card you can use at most stores, both online and in brick-and-mortar stores. It works like a credit card—just choose to pay by credit card at checkout, then enter your virtual card number.


Affirm Savings account
Affirm also works with Cross River Bank, Member FDIC, to provide interest-bearing savings accounts, available from the Affirm app, with no minimum deposit requirements and no fees. After you securely link your bank account to your Affirm savings, you can transfer money into your account. However, you may not make more than six withdrawals or transfers from your account during any monthly statement cycle.



Interest and no fees
We don’t charge any fees. That means no late fees, no prepayment fees, no annual fees, and no fees to open or close your account.

Your APR may be different depending on your creditworthiness and where you are shopping. The exact terms that apply to your purchase will be given when you check out with Affirm.


Interest
At checkout, Affirm always shows the total amount of interest you’ll pay and you will never be charged more than that. This way, you always know what you’re getting into. If you pay faster than agreed, you might be charged less!


No fees
With Affirm, there are no late fees, service fees, prepayment fees, or any hidden fees.

 

AFFIRMS TERMS OF SERVICE 

AFFIRM Terms of Service
PLEASE READ THESE TERMS OF SERVICE CAREFULLY. BY ACCESSING THE AFFIRM WEBSITE OR USING THE AFFIRM SERVICE, YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THE (1) AFFIRM TERMS OF SERVICE, (2) AFFIRM E-SIGN CONSENT AGREEMENT, (3) AFFIRM PRIVACY POLICY AND PRIVACY NOTICE, (4) CROSS RIVER BANK PRIVACY NOTICE AND (5) CELTIC BANK PRIVACY NOTICE. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH THESE TERMS, PLEASE DO NOT ACCESS THE AFFIRM WEBSITE OR USE THE AFFIRM SERVICE. THE HEADINGS CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT ARE FOR REFERENCE PURPOSES ONLY. YOU SHOULD PRINT A COPY OF THIS AGREEMENT FOR YOUR RECORDS.

1. WHAT ARE YOU AGREEING TO?
The Parties to this Agreement. These Terms of Service describe a contractual relationship ("Agreement") between you ("you" or "your") and Affirm, Inc. (including its subsidiaries, affiliates, including Affirm Loan Services, LLC, agents, and assigns) ("Affirm," "we," "us," "our"), formerly known as Expedite, Inc. or Expedite Software, regarding (1) your use of this website ("Website") or the Affirm mobile application (the "App"), including to access information related to buying with Affirm and/or "Affirm Plus" (both of which are described below in Section 2.1), (2) your use of the Website, App, or a third-party website in connection with a product or service offered directly by Affirm, as applicable, (3) your use of "Additional Tools" as described below in Section 2., (4) your use of any other service(s) offered through the Website or App), as applicable, and (5) your access to your Affirm account information and service through the Website or App (collectively, the "Affirm Service(s)" or "Service(s)"). We may partner with banks (each, a "Bank Partner") to offer certain products and services and we offer certain products and services directly to you. If you are approved for a product offered through Affirm by one of these partnerships, or through other partnerships with Bank Partners, you will enter into an agreement with the Bank Partner. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, any agreement you enter into with a Bank Partner (and not this Agreement) will control with respect to the associated Bank Partner product.

Changes to this Agreement. Affirm may unilaterally decide to change this Agreement from time to time, provided, however, that such changes will not impose additional obligations on you with respect to actions you took before the change became effective unless you specifically agree to such changes (for example, by confirming a loan). Additionally, YOU AGREE TO ACCEPT ANY CHANGES TO THIS AGREEMENT BY USING THE AFFIRM SERVICES AFTER CHANGES HAVE BEEN POSTED. If Affirm makes any changes to this Agreement that it deems to be material, Affirm will make a reasonable effort to inform you of such changes, but it is your responsibility to review the Agreement posted to our website from time to time to see if it has been changed.

Your Eligibility To be eligible to use the Services, you must be at least 18 years old (19 years old in Alabama or if you are a ward of the state in Nebraska) and a resident of the United States or its territories. Residents of Iowa and West Virginia are not eligible for loans offered by a Bank Partner and/or for the "Affirm Plus" service. Loans originated directly by Affirm may not be available in all states. You represent and warrant that you are eligible to use the Services.

2. HOW AFFIRM WILL SERVE YOU
Buy with Affirm: When you buy with Affirm you may be offered a closed-end installment loan product with terms as expressed in your Loan Agreement. Loans may be offered by a Bank Partner through Affirm's technology platform or by Affirm directly through Affirm's technology platform or through a third-party website. Loan term options may vary based on purchase price and merchant and may not be available in all states. Affirm's services allow you to buy goods or services offered by merchants ("Merchants") for personal use. If you buy with Affirm, either Affirm or Bank Partner (the "Lender"), depending on the product, will pay the Merchant on your behalf in exchange for your promise to repay the same amount plus a finance charge, where applicable.

Your Promise to Pay: Before completing any transaction on your behalf through any Affirm Services, Affirm will secure your promise to pay by disclosing the terms and conditions applicable to that transaction and securing your affirmative consent to those terms for that transaction, including your promise to pay the Total Payments amount to Lender or its assigns, by asking you to click the button to confirm your loan.

Interest Rates: Rates range from 0% to 36% fixed Annual Percentage Rate ("APR"), depending on your creditworthiness and/or the type of product offered (0% APR may only be offered at select merchants). Loans are simple interest loans, which means that interest, if any, accrues daily on the unpaid principal balance, up to the amount of the finance charge, until you pay the loan in full.

Finance Charge: Loans may be subject to a finance charge based on the applicable interest rate. The Lender will always disclose the specific finance charge before you agree to any loan.

Late Payment Fee: You will never be charged any late fees when you buy with Affirm.

Delays in Processing: In some cases when you attempt to use "Buy with Affirm" to make a purchase, the transaction may be held as pending or be otherwise delayed for processing and confirmation by either Affirm or the merchant and can be cancelled at any time until it is confirmed by Affirm.

Extended Ship Date: If when buying with Affirm, one or more items in your order has an extended ship date, your loan payment(s), including interest, may be due before the merchant ships the item(s). Please note that you may not receive a rebate of any interest that may have already accrued on an amount that later gets refunded.

"Affirm Plus" "Affirm Plus" is an open-end line of credit product offered by Celtic Bank through Affirm's technology platform. Individual purchase terms may vary based on purchase price and merchant. "Affirm Plus" allows you to buy goods or services offered by Merchants for personal use. If you agree to use "Affirm Plus," Celtic Bank will pay the Merchant on your behalf in exchange for your promise to repay the same amount plus a finance charge as determined by your creditworthiness.

Savings Account. Savings account service is provided by Cross River Bank. Refer to the Cross River Bank Deposit Account Agreement for details.

Affirm-originated loans. Loans may be offered directly by Affirm. Refer to your payment agreement for details.

Partial Payments. For the purchase of certain merchandise and goods or services, you may be required to make an immediate, one-time partial payment of the purchase price (a "Partial Payment"). If you are required to make a Partial Payment, you acknowledge that, notwithstanding the fact that Affirm is not a party to the initial agreement between you and the merchant (i.e., your purchase), Affirm acts as the merchant's payment collection agent for the limited purpose of accepting Partial Payments from you on behalf of the merchant. Upon your payment of a Partial Payment to Affirm, your payment obligation to the merchant for the Partial Payment is extinguished and Affirm is responsible for remitting the Partial Payment to the merchant. In the event that Affirm does not remit a Partial Payment to the merchant, the merchant will have recourse only against Affirm and not you.

Additional Tools.
Tools We May Offer: We may from time to time offer you the ability to access certain financial management tools. Examples of such tools include financial calculators, customized financial analyses, bill payment reminders, dashboards with information about your debts (including debts you may owe others) and/or assets, and other similar services. Unless we indicate otherwise, these tools will be provided free of charge and are provided exclusively for personal use.

Autofill of Information: In order for you to have a more seamless shopping experience while using your payment instrument with another financial institution, we will store some of the information that you provide to us and use that information to autofill different forms for you during your shopping journey. More detail on how it works is below. While using the Services, we may ask for your personal information and contact details such as name, shipping address, telephone number, email, VCN card details, debit/credit card details (excluding CVV), and billing address for those cards. We will keep this information in our systems so that when you return to us, you will only need to provide basic details in order for us to automatically fill in the remaining fields to complete your transaction. When you shop with a merchant directly from the Affirm App, we can autofill your details on the merchant's site. This is enabled by you being logged in to the app so that we know it is you that is shopping with that merchant. If you no longer want to use the autofill feature, you can go to the Profiles Tab in the Affirm mobile app and remove your payment instrument under Payment Methods.

Limitations on Tools: You agree that we may modify the tools or cease making them available to you at any time without notice. We have no obligation to continue to make any particular tool available to you or to do so without charge. If we modify a tool or cease to make a tool available to you, you understand that you may lose access to any information that you may have supplied in connection with your use of the tool and have no rights to obtain such information from us. To the extent that the tools present information regarding financial accounts you may have with other lenders or financial institutions, you understand that the information may not be up to date. Before acting on any such information, you should confirm its accuracy with the lender or financial institution holding the account. There may be times when a tool we offer is unavailable or not properly functioning, and you agree that we have no liability to you if this occurs or in connection with the tools generally. You may need certain hardware or software to utilize the tools, and you understand that your failure to have such hardware or software will result in your not being able to use the tools or some tool functionality. You understand that some tools or some tool functionality may only be available to consumers who have relationships with certain lenders, service providers or financial institutions or who have certain financial products. If you do not have such relationships or products, you understand that you may not be eligible to use a tool or all of its functionality. You agree that we may use information we gather through the tools to market other products and/or services to you, including those of third parties.

Third Party Providers: We may rely on third party providers to assist us in making a tool or other Affirm Service available to you. By linking your bank account to a tool or Service, you authorize us and our third party providers to access your financial accounts on your behalf, and to gather information about you. You give us and our third party providers a limited power of attorney, and appoint us and our third party providers as your true and lawful attorney-in-fact and agent to act on your behalf and access, transmit, and use your information as necessary to provide the tools and other Services. You agree to the transfer, storage, and processing of your information by these third party providers in accordance with their respective privacy policies. We have no liability to you for any damages you may suffer as a result of any such third party's actions or inactions or from inaccurate account information.

Tools are Provided for Informational Purposes Only: Financial information provided through the tools is provided for informational purposes only and is not a substitute for individualized professional advice. We are not a credit repair or credit services organization as defined under federal or state law, including any credit repair or credit services organization acts. We do not provide "credit services" or "credit repair" services. We do not advise or assist you with "rebuilding" or "improving" your credit. We make no representation that we will improve or attempt to improve your credit record, history or rating. The tools are not intended to provide financial, legal or tax advice, and we are not a financial planner, broker or tax advisor. The tools are intended only to provide general assistance in organizing your finances. Before making any financial decisions or implementing any strategy, you should consider obtaining additional information and advice from your accountant or other financial advisers who are fully aware of your individual circumstances.

Accuracy, Reliability and Timeliness of Information: YOUR USE OF THE TOOLS IS AT YOUR SOLE RISK. INFORMATION PROVIDED THROUGH THE TOOLS IS ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY. WE MAKE NO WARRANTY THAT THE TOOLS WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS OR EXPECTATIONS, OR BE UNINTERRUPTED, TIMELY, SECURE, ACCURATE OR RELIABLE.

Collecting Information About You. By using the Affirm Services, you authorize Affirm, directly or through third parties, to make any inquiries we consider necessary to validate your identity and to collect information about you in accordance with the Customer Identification Program (CIP) rules implementing Section 326 of the USA PATRIOT Act and our Privacy Policy. This may include asking you for further information that will allow us to reasonably identify you, requiring you to take steps to confirm ownership of your email address or financial instruments, or verifying your information against third party databases or through other sources. We may also ask you for identifying documents to help us validate your identity. Affirm reserves the right to close, suspend, or limit access to your account and/or the Services in the event we are unable to obtain or verify this information.

Credit Report Authorization and Reporting. You expressly authorize Affirm, Inc., Affirm Loan Services, and/or any of Affirm's Bank Partners (each an "Affirm Creditor" and collectively "Affirm Creditors") to obtain (for itself or on behalf of another Affirm Creditor) consumer reports from consumer reporting agencies about you (1) when you apply for a loan or line of credit, (2) periodically throughout the term of your loan or while you have a line of credit (including in the month following the month when you pay off or otherwise satisfy the loan or line of credit) and (3) periodically in connection with the use of any other services that we offer or that you may obtain from us (including services involving financial management, credit profile tools, and the marketplace); in each case you expressly authorize us to use such information about you to (i) determine your eligibility for a loan or line of credit, (ii) market refinancings and Affirm's current and future products and services to you (including during or after the term of your loan, while you have a line of credit, or whenever you use any other service we offer or you obtain from us, such as financial management tools or the marketplace), (iii) provide you with other services (including financial management tools and credit profile tools) you may request, (iv) make decisions related to the servicing and collection of your account, (v) measure how the loan/line of credit you obtained through us impacts your credit, (vi) perform other statistical analyses, and (vii) share information with you about your credit profile. If you apply for an additional loan or line of credit from us, you further authorize any Affirm Creditor that has information about you (including a consumer report) to convey such information to the applicable Affirm Creditor in order to determine your eligibility for such additional loan or line of credit. You understand that any of the Affirm Creditors and/or Bank Partners may report information about your loan or line of credit (such as on-time, late, and missed payments; any defaults; and the fact you paid off your loan or line of credit) to credit reporting agencies, and that such information may be reflected in your credit report.

Collection. You agree to allow Affirm to send you payment reminders from time-to-time. Notwithstanding whether you have consented or withdrawn your consent to the Affirm E-Sign Consent, you agree that payment reminders may take the form of any available communication. You also agree that if you fail to pay an amount owed to Affirm pursuant to this Agreement, Affirm may engage in collection efforts to recover such amounts from you. These collection efforts may involve contacting you directly, submitting your information to a collections agency, or taking legal action. FAILURE TO PAY MAY AFFECT YOUR CREDIT SCORE.

Communication & Notification. You agree that Affirm may provide you communications about your account and an Affirm Service electronically or through phone calls or in writing. Standard mobile, message, or data rates may apply and you are responsible for any such fees. Affirm reserves the right to close or limit access to your account or a Service and immediately collect all due amounts if you withdraw your consent to receive electronic or other communications or if you revoke access to any third party site on which the Affirm Service relies or if any such service should revoke or cancel your account on that site. Any electronic communications will be considered to be received by you at the time we email it to you or otherwise send it to your attention (such as via sms or other online or mobile notification). We may assume you have received any communications sent to you by postal mail 3 business days after we send it. If we need to contact you to service your account or to collect amounts you owe to us, you give direct consent to us, as well as servicers, agents, contractors and collectors of your account, to communicate with you in any way, such as calling, texting, or email via:

any email address you provide to us or one of our merchants,
automated dialer systems and automatic telephone dialing systems,
pre-recorded or artificial voice messages and other forms of communications.
You also agree that these communications are not unsolicited for purposes of any state or federal law, and you understand that this may result in additional mobile, text message, or data charges.

You also acknowledge that granting permission to a third party to take specific actions on your behalf does not relieve you of any of your responsibilities under this Agreement. Further, you acknowledge and agree that you will not hold Affirm responsible for, and will indemnify Affirm from, any liability arising from the actions or inactions of this third party in connection with the permissions you grant.

5. HOW AFFIRM WILL RESOLVE DISPUTES
Disputes with Affirm. If a dispute arises between you and Affirm, our goal is to provide you with a neutral and cost-effective means of resolving the dispute quickly. In the event of a dispute we encourage you first to contact Affirm at help@affirm.com to try resolving your problem directly with us.

Mandatory Arbitration. THIS SECTION AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS, PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE AGREEING TO THESE TERMS OF SERVICE BY USING THE AFFIRM SERVICE OR THE WEBSITE. Unless you are a covered borrower as defined by the Military Lending Act, 10 U.S.C. § 987, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, except as explicitly provided in this Agreement, any dispute or claim relating in any way to your visit to the Website, your use of the Affirm Services, a product offered or provided by or through the Website or Service, or otherwise arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Services that cannot be resolved directly between you and Affirm shall be resolved by non-appearance based binding arbitration, rather than in court. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, this includes any claims based in contract, statute, tort, fraud, misrepresentation or any other legal theory. The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement. There is no judge or jury in arbitration and court review of an arbitration award is limited, but an arbitrator can award an individual the same damages and relief as a court and must apply and follow the terms of this Agreement as a court would. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT ABSENT THIS PROVISION, YOU WOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.

Either you or we can initiate arbitration through the alternative dispute resolution provider the American Arbitration Association (the "AAA") pursuant to the then-current Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes (the "Consumer Rules"), both of which are available at the AAA website www.adr.org. Your arbitration fees and your share of arbitrator compensation shall be governed by the AAA rules and, where appropriate, limited by the AAA Consumer Rules. If such costs are determined by the arbitrator to be excessive, Affirm will pay all arbitration fees and expenses. The arbitration shall be conducted by telephone or electronic means and/or shall be solely based on written submissions, the specific manner of which shall be chosen by the party initiating the arbitration. The arbitration shall not involve any personal appearance by the parties or witnesses unless the arbitrator determines that an in- person hearing is necessary based on the request of one of the parties and any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator shall be final and may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. You and Affirm each agree that any dispute resolution proceedings will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated or representative action. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, we each waive any right to a jury trial and agree to proceed only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated, or representative action. The parties hereby appoint the arbitrator the exclusive power to rule on any challenges to the requirement for the use of alternative dispute resolution process in these terms.

We also both agree that you or we may bring suit in court to obtain interim or preliminary injunctive relief necessary to protect the rights or property of you or Affirm and all of its partners, affiliates, shareholders, employees, and agents of any kind (together, our "Affiliates").

Except as explicitly provided elsewhere in this Agreement, all claims you bring against Affirm must be resolved in accordance with this Section. Any claim filed or brought contrary to this Section shall be considered improperly filed. Should you file a claim contrary to this Section, Affirm may recover from you attorneys' fees and costs up to $1,500 per claim, provided that Affirm first has notified you in writing of the improperly filed claim and you have failed to promptly withdraw the claim.

Restrictions. You and Affirm agree that any arbitration shall be limited to the dispute between Affirm and you individually. To the fullest extent permitted by law, (1) no arbitration shall be joined with any other; (2) there is no right or authority for any dispute to be arbitrated on a class-action basis or to utilize class action procedures; and (3) there is no right or authority for any dispute to be brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public or any other persons.

Exceptions to Informal Negotiations and Arbitration. You and Affirm agree that the following disputes are not subject to the above provisions concerning informal negotiations and binding arbitration: (1) any disputes seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of, any of your or Affirm's intellectual property rights; and (2) any claim for injunctive relief.

Savings account disputes. Refer to Deposit Agreement link.
