Show shoppers how they can pay so visits end in financed orders

You’re the growth / marketing strategist. Your team is in the room. Printed Oct 21, 2026.

The promotion earns attention, but the financing choice arrives too late in the shopper journey.

The merchant needs more financed purchases, while the campaign must protect a fixed co-marketing investment.

Who you’d be doing this for

“My finance lead asked why the campaign got traffic but barely moved financed orders.”

Athena Ortega · Merchant Payments Manager

Owns checkout payment performance and reports whether co-marketing investment produces financed purchases.

What is at stake

Campaign traffic is reaching the merchant, but financed purchases are not rising with it. You must weigh a sharper financing message against the fixed budget and limited Marketplace inventory.

Why it isn’t already fixed

Every obvious fix costs something else. That’s the part you’d have to decide.

  • traffic growth vs financed purchases
  • message simplicity vs financing clarity
  • merchant ROI vs fixed placement inventory
  • creative speed vs compliance precision

Why Affirm

Affirm Marketplace is a merchant growth surface where campaign clarity directly affects originated loans and partner confidence.
