Approval Is Handled by Affirm, Not by Us

If you are approved, great. If not, Affirm will explain why in an email to the address you used at checkout (check your spam folder if you do not see it). Your eligibility may differ from purchase to purchase.

Managing Your Payments

Once your order is placed using Shop Pay Installments, your payment plan is managed through Affirm. You can view your payment schedule, make early payments, and manage your account through the Affirm website or the Shop app.
