Affirm is reinventing credit to make it more honest and friendly, giving consumers the flexibility to buy now and pay later without any hidden fees or compounding interest. Affirm, Inc. proudly includes Affirm, PayBright, and Returnly.

It doesn’t have to be this way, and it’s our mission to fix this problem! Using technology to re-imagine the financial infrastructure, Affirm is improving lives with honest, transparent, and easy-to-use financial products.
