My credit rating is now excellent, but at one point was so bad it was impossible to get credit. Only Affirm would extend me credit. They helped me rebuild my score when nobody else would. Hearing this news is saddening, hope they make it through this downturn

How does Affirm help you rebuild credit? Is payment history for Affirm used by the credit beaureus?

Affirm reports some loans to Experian.[0] Also, if you use Affirm rather than cash you can defer some costs and get yourself out of a sticky situation.

I saw "shuts crypto unit". I'm happy.
