Key Facts
- Upon launch of the program, FIS debit processing bank clients
will be able to integrate Affirm’s pay-over-time solution directly
into their existing debit card program via their digital banking
and mobile app platforms.
- Affirm delivers real-time underwriting technology, a wide-range
of flexible payment options – including ‘buy now, pay later’ (BNPL)
and monthly payment plans – and no late or hidden fees. It also
provides access to a network of over 335,000 merchants.
- FIS' clients can continue to meet the growing demand for
payment flexibility, while increasing customer engagement and
accelerating growth for their business, by incorporating Affirm's
offering into their debit card products.
FIS® (NYSE: FIS), a global leader in financial technology, today
announced a new strategic partnership with Affirm, (NASDAQ: AFRM),
the payment network that can empower consumers and help merchants
drive growth, making Affirm its integrated pay-over-time provider
for debit issuers. Together, FIS and Affirm will deliver a new
program that enables FIS’ vast network of banking clients to
integrate Affirm’s industry-leading solution into their existing
debit program via their digital banking and mobile app platforms,
allowing their customers to easily manage their finances in a
single place.
This collaboration is well-timed, as banks are searching for new
and innovative options to meet consumer needs and demands for
flexible purchasing solutions. This program offers a substantial
opportunity for financial institutions to provide a sought-after
pay-over-time solution to the millions of U.S. consumers who have a
debit card. By integrating Affirm’s offering into banking products,
FIS continues to unlock growth opportunities for clients across the
money lifecycle, help meet the demands of the growing market and
strategically position financial institutions to capitalize on the
offering’s potential by fostering customer loyalty and accelerating
growth.
“Customer conversion and retention have become major priorities
for card-issuing banks in our increasingly digitized economy, where
consumers have endless options,” said Jim Johnson, co-president,
Banking Solutions, FIS. "Consumers today are looking for innovative
and user-friendly experiences that give them flexibility and
control over their money and optimize how their money is put to
work. That’s why so many of them choose to pay with Affirm. This
new program will deliver Affirm’s leading-edge technology, flexible
and transparent payment options, and extensive merchant network to
our banking clients, enabling them to continue meeting these needs
and offer more competitive, differentiated services through their
own banking channels."
When the program launches, participating FIS debit processing
banks will be able to offer their eligible customers biweekly and
monthly payment plans through the bank’s existing debit card
products. Additionally, these banks will have the potential to
unlock merchant-funded financing offers – including 0% APRs, longer
payment terms, and higher credit limits – from Affirm’s over
335,000 merchant partners for their debit cardholders. This will
enable significantly more consumers to access the benefits of
Affirm when paying over time online and in-store. Affirm will
manage underwriting and servicing, seeking to provide a
frictionless experience for participating FIS clients and their
customers.
“Millions of consumers prefer using a debit card from their
trusted financial institution, and we believe they should have easy
access to exceptional credit options through their preferred
payment method. That’s why, for the first time, we’re bringing
Affirm's proprietary underwriting technology and full suite of
pay-over-time solutions to third party issuers in partnership with
FIS,” said Wayne Pommen, chief revenue officer of Affirm. “This new
program will expand access to Affirm’s wide range of payment
options, giving more consumers a responsible way to pay over time.
It will also connect them directly to Affirm’s vast and growing
merchant network – delivering an even more valuable and
differentiated experience.”
By integrating with Affirm, FIS continues its mission of
unlocking financial technology across the money lifecycle, with the
aim of ensuring that every stage of financial transactions—from
savings to payments to investments—is seamless, reliable, and
innovative.
