Affirm is reinventing credit to make it more honest and friendly, giving consumers the flexibility to buy now and pay later without any hidden fees or compounding interest. Affirm, Inc. proudly includes Affirm, PayBright, and Returnly.
When you think “financial services,” a few things might come to mind: Shocking interest rates. Unexpected annual fees. Fine print as long as your arm. But at Affirm, we’re redefining all that. We’re on a mission to change this industry by offering people a better way to pay for the things they want, need, or just plain love—with no fees, no gotchas, and no regrets.

What we’re looking for
- A creative, flexible copywriter with 3-4 years of experience at a consumer brand or agency, adept at writing consumer-centric copy
