Affirm's Bottom Is Here - Robust Acquisition Trends At Higher Margins

Strategic Analysis // Ian Gross

"Affirm's reported bottoming and higher-margin acquisition trends signal a potential inflection point for the Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) sector, suggesting improved unit economics and a pathway to profitability amidst tighter credit conditions. This could attract renewed institutional capital into fintech lending, influencing broader consumer credit markets and traditional financial institutions' competitive strategies."
