๐ŸŽ‰ Verifone Integration is Here!

Smooth sailing just got smoother for in-store payments. Introducing our Verifone integration! Hereโ€™s the nitty-gritty:

  • How It Works:
    • Your customer picks "Affirm" on the Verifone PIN pad, and voila, a QR code is generated.
    • They scan the QR code with their phone, make and/or confirm their Affirm account, and get the thumbs up.
    • They choose their payment plan, nod at the loan details, and boomโ€”the purchase is a go!
  • Merchant Side:
    • If you're already familiar with Verifone, just contact your account manager and they'll get you started.
    • New around here? Don't worry - just reach out to Verifone and they'll set you up.
  • Wins All Around:
    • Merchants, say hello to in-store, pay-over-time magic.
  • Ease of Integration:
    • Quick and almost effortless. Really, it's that simple.

In a nutshell, the Verifone integration is your ticket to making in-store payments seamless and flexible. For the full overview, check out our doc here.
