Does checking my eligibility affect my credit score?
No- your credit score won’t be affected when you create an Affirm account or check your eligibility. When you apply for or check to see if you prequalify for Affirm financing, it's considered a soft inquiry, which does not affect your credit score. If you decide to pay with installments through Affirm, your payments may be reported to credit bureaus. You can find more information on
Affirm's Help Center.
Do I need a mobile number to use Affirm?
Yes, you’ll need a mobile phone number from the U.S. or U.S. territories. This helps Affirm verify it’s really you who is creating your account and signing in.
