How to make a purchase

Pay just about anywhere

Look for the Affirm logo at checkout. Didn’t see it? You can request a one-time-use virtual card in the Affirm app or learn how the Affirm Card™ works.

Apply and choose your payment plan

Pick the payment option that works for you—from 4 interest-free payments every 2 weeks to monthly installments.

Make your payments

Manage your payments in the Affirm app or online, and set up AutoPay so you don’t miss a payment. But if you do, you’ll never pay any fees.
