Affirm, which was launched in 2012, finances loans for more than 6,500 online merchants through originations made by third-party true lenders Cross River Bank and Celtic Bank and sold to Affirm. All of the loans are serviced by Affirm.

Affirm issues non-revolving, fully amortizing fixed-rate loans to borrowers on terms between 30 days and 60 months.

The loans pooled into the Affirm Asset Securitization Trust 2021-A transaction do not exceed two years, however.
