Affirm provides point-of-sale financing solutions as an alternative to traditional credit cards. Its main service is the "buy now, pay later" (BNPL) model, which allows consumers to make purchases and pay for them over time through installment plans, often without hidden fees. Affirm partners with merchants to integrate its payment solutions into their sales platforms, whether online or in-store, using user-friendly plugins and APIs. This integration requires minimal technical effort from merchants. Affirm earns revenue through interest and fees on the loans it provides to consumers, as well as fees from merchants who offer its financing options. The company also provides a merchant dashboard for transaction processing and sales training, helping businesses effectively market these financing options. Affirm's goal is to empower consumers with flexible payment options while providing value to merchants in the e-commerce and retail sectors.

January Data Shows Muted Pace Of Spending On Credit Cards And Revolving Debt

After a holiday spending frenzy, consumers have returned to a more normalized rate of spending, as measured in incremental borrowing on credit cards and other forms of debt. December saw a massive $37.1 billion increase in total credit, where revolving credit — the category that includes credit cards — surged at an annualized pace of 18.5%, after a 16.1% drop in November. The data suggests that consumers were loading up on dry tinder ahead of the year-end frenzy of gift giving and taking advantage of sales. On Friday (March 7), new data from the Federal Reserve revealed that overall credit increased $18.1 billion during the first month of the year, above of the consensus estimate that the headline number would grow by about $15 billion
