I see that pottery barn gives the option of paying with Affirm. Affirm splits the total into monthly payments. Has anyone used Affrim before? Is there really no catch to it?

ok I looked at the website. There's interest.

A poster above said interest free payments. Nope. It's just like any credit card or credit program as far as I can tell.

There's only interest if you're splitting the payment over 6 or more months. 3 months is interest free.
I guess I'll try it, thanks for the info.

No idea what you’re looking at but many websites having been offering payments like this. There’s also Klarna, Four and probably others. The ones that offer these interest free, well there’s no interest!

I tried to pay with Affirm now but I wasn't approved because they couldn't verify my identity!!! Of course I don't look the same now as my ID picture 10 years ago.
