Sur la table looks to offer customers flexibility in how they pay with Affirm tie up. Sur la table has announced a buy now pay later partnership with Affirm. Eligible customers can now pay over time on most items shipped from surlatable.com, with biweekly or monthly payment options starting at 0% APR. Before they buy, customers see their full payment schedule and total cost, including any interest. Affirm says that it never charges late fees, hidden fees or compounding interest. "People do not build a kitchen all at once. They build it over years, one pan and one knife at a time, and the pieces they keep are the ones that were worth buying in the first place," says Elton Graham, Chief Marketing Officer at Sur la table. "We have offered customers flexibility in how they pay for a while now. What we wanted was a partner whose terms are as clear as the products we put on the shelf. Affirm gives people cost certainty, with no late fees and nothing buried in the fine print. Our customers should expect that from us." "Sur la table has built its reputation on helping people find the right pieces for their kitchens," says Wayne Pommen, Chief Revenue Officer at Affirm. "Affirm is a natural fit for that experience, giving customers more choice and control over their purchases, with clear payment terms upfront and no financial surprises after checkout." 2026 RTIH Innovation Awards The awards, which celebrate global retail technology innovation in a fast moving omnichannel world, have now closed for entries.
