Considerations
Affirm is a supported third-party payment method, meaning this will display as an option in the native checkout. Once Affirm is selected, your customers will automatically be routed to a web checkout.
Important Note: At this time, you can only display one option for customers to use payment installments in the native checkout. If you offer multiple payment installment options, web checkout will give you the ability to show all options during the checkout experience.
