The overall reception of the "Affirm pay‑over‑time messaging" app among merchants appears to be largely negative. Many users struggle with installation issues, significant functionality limitations, and daunting integration challenges. Furthermore, merchant support is criticized as unhelpful and inaccessible, contributing to the overall dissatisfaction.

Key Strengths

  • Potential for successful integration with custom coding knowledge and following detailed documentation.
  • An option for those seeking a buy now, pay later service alternative when competitors like AfterPay are not suitable.

Common Concerns

  • Installation difficulties and login issues on the web dashboard.
  • Lack of effective customer service and support, notably with the removal of phone support.
  • Frequent technical problems, such as application freezes or failures to load.
  • Complex setup requirements involving coding, deterring merchants without technical expertise.

I am giving a zero, there in no phone number to speak with a human tech in resolving issues connecting to Shopify. After getting accepted its just been continued login failures connecting with Shopify. Their loss

Trash. They have issues with the login after getting accepted, but haven't fixed their login issue. I'm unable to sign in to my merchant account and there's no live support to even chat with. Horrible.

I have waisted 2 days trying to install this bullcrap app. No support, no chat and the app is full of bugs. I received recaptcha error, and 404 forbidden errors. Even after I dump my cache, open different browsers and used different devices. This is a nightmare to install. I'm done!!

Absolute crap with zero support. Impossible to install or get any knowledgeable assistance from Affirm or Shopify support. Save yourself time and just move on....

After a couple attempts of struggling to find the solution to add this feature. I was able to fix and add the messaging app to my store. It does take small steps to be able to add this. If you need assistance intergrading this to you store I will be glad to help

I would give it 0 stars if I could. I ran into an issue where they somehow put 3 customers orders onto 1 customers account. There is no phone number to call, so I messaged and also emailed for support. The only response I got was to have the customers call customer support. Of course, the 2 customers who's furniture purchases didn't get associated with their accounts have gone MIA now. This complete lack of support ended up costing me $6000 through no fault of my own.

This is a crap App, does not even install + impossible to login in their web dashboard after creating an account. Expected a tech person to troubleshoot for us but with little hope

Randomly bloating the app with new pop-ups and updates that noone asked for. Does not work as intended, cannot recommend.

Don't get discourage by the negative reviews, yes the implementation requires a little bit of coding experience and reading the documentation, but in our case we have a very customized template and we made it work, just read and follow the instructions, don't be afraid to ask for help.

App and messaging has not loaded for nearly two years, even after changing themes and several of the Shopify Helpers/Hireable team looking into it. Have not been able to integrate it at all.

Terrible app. It does not work. It doesn't show up in the check out page. It looks like there is a ton of additional configuration that has to happen at the code level to get this to work. Uninstalling, not worth the hassle.

You can look forward to them unexpectedly holding the funds on your first order for the reason that they are "getting to know your business." There is nothing in the merchant agreement that says they can do that, so it's fraud. Meanwhile you can't ship the order to your customer because you have no idea if you are actually going to receive the payment. The Feds need to look closely at this trashy company.

App doesn't work. Always gets stuck loading on promotional message page and doesn't allow me to install the promotional message

Horrific experience with them. They moved away from "paybright" We do not know how to fix API or mesh code. We asked for help and they kept coming back with " We are not complying to their standards" We asked for help and its an automated response every single time. You cannot call them and nobody will help you . Its been an awful experience and hopefully another loan company can take care of us. If you cannot provide customer service you shouldn't be in business.

Affirm initially worked for a few months and is no longer functional. Customers get an error message when trying to checkout with Affirm and the app is stuck on asking me to update promotional messaging (window freezes when clicking on the update button). Phone support was removed for merchants????? Seriously???? Support is only through email now and is next to useless as their responses to your issues are just copied from their manuals online. I can't believe this company gets the business it does. I would recommend any store owner to look for an alternative financing app.

How is this app still on the platform. It's not setup correctly to merge with Shopify. Please remove it from the options menu.
