• Not be a resident of Iowa (IA) or West Virginia (WV).
• Provide a valid U.S. or APO/FPO/DPO home address.

How does Affirm work?

1.  At checkout, choose Pay with Affirm.
2.  Affirm prompts you to enter a few pieces of information: Name, email, mobile phone number, date of birth, and the last four digits of your social security number. This information must be consistent and your own. 
3. To ensure that you are the person making the purchase, Affirm sends a text message to your cell phone with a unique authorization code.
4. Enter the authorization code into the application form. Within a few seconds, Affirm notifies you of the loan amount you're approved for, the interest rate, and the number of months you have to pay off your loan. You have the option to pay off your loan over three, six, or twelve months. Affirm states the amount of your fixed, monthly payments and the total amount of interest you'll pay over the course of the loan.
5. To accept Affirm's financing offer, click Confirm Loan and you're done.   

After your purchase, you'll receive monthly email and SMS reminders about your upcoming payments. You can also set up auto-pay to avoid missing a payment.  Your first monthly payment is due 30 days from the date that we (the merchant) processes your order.
