Affirm, Sam’s Club Strike Exclusive Buy Now, Pay Later Deal

Affirm is teaming up with Walmart’s Sam’s Club as the retailer’s exclusive buy-now, pay-later partner, just weeks before the key holiday shopping season kicks off. Affirm will serve as Sam’s Club’s exclusive BNPL provider in a multi-year agreement, starting in that role on Sam’s Club’s website in the coming weeks and rolling out to stores in 2027, according to a statement Thursday that didn’t disclose terms of the deal. Max Levchin, Founder & CEO of Affirm, joins Bloomberg Businessweek Daily to discuss. He speaks with Carol Massar and Tim Stenovec. (Source: Bloomberg)
