Homepage
Adding Affirm messaging to your homepage is a great way to make a strong first impression. It lets visitors know right away that your site offers alternative payment options. Showcasing Affirm front and center grabs your shoppers' attention and gives them a reason to browse your site further.
Category page
Adding Affirm to your cart page helps to reinforce the idea that you're committed to making the purchasing process as seamless as possible. Additionally, when customers see that they can break down their total into smaller, manageable payments, they may be more inclined to complete their purchase.
Checkout page
Messing on the checkout page is the final reminder that customers have a convenient payment option at their fingertips. This can be the deciding factor for many customers, pushing them to complete their purchase with confidence.
Prequalification
Prequalification is an excellent addition to the mix. It allows customers to qualify for pre-approved Affirm spending power, encouraging them to explore financing options and make informed decisions, ultimately empowering shoppers to add additional items to their cart.
