What is Affirm?

Affirm is a financing alternative to credit cards and other credit payment products. Affirm strives to keep you out of unhealthy debt by facilitating fair, transparent credit so you can pay over time for the things you love. Affirm offers affordable monthly payments at a pace you choose—usually 3, 6, or 12 months—so you're in control. From day one, you know how long you'll pay, and you know how much you'll pay because Affirm never charges late fees or other hidden fees.

 

With Affirm, you always know exactly what you'll owe and when you'll be done paying.

Affirm tells you up front the total amount you’ll pay. That number will never go up.

Flexible

You choose the payment plan that works for you. Our smart checkout gives you options.

Fair

Affirm won’t charge you late fees or penalties of any kind, ever

Rates from 0% APR or 10–36% APR. For example, a $800 purchase might cost $72.21/mo over 12 months at 15% APR.

Does Katapult charge an interest rate (Annual Percentage Rate)?

No, Katapult offers you a lease to own program. Customers are entering into a lease purchase agreement to lease products with an option to own, by exercising an Early Purchase Option or making all lease to own payments scheduled in the lease purchase agreement. The lease purchase agreement is not a credit transaction. Lease to own payments do not include an interest rate or APR and these will not be used to calculate the lease amount.

Katapult considers the following four factors when calculating the lease to own payment.

  1. The cash price of the product
  2. The state in which the customer resides
  3. The maximum term a customer can lease the product
  4. The state/city sales tax rate

Does Katapult charge late fees?

No. Katapult will never charge you a late fee. Ever.


How do I make my Katapult lease to own payments?

Your first lease to own payment is due at checkout. Then recurring lease to own payments are automatically charged to the card you provided at checkout. You can also make lease to own payments by logging into your Katapult account. You can access your lease purchase agreement account information on Katapult's site by clicking  here .
