Affirm to offer buy now, pay later option for rent payments

Affirm is piloting a buy now, pay later program in partnership with Esusu, allowing renters to split monthly rent into biweekly payments at 0% APR, with no hidden fees. This initiative aims to help renters manage their largest monthly expense more flexibly. While it offers potential benefits for those on tight budgets, experts caution about the risks of managing multiple loans. The program is still in early stages, and Affirm is evaluating its rollout.

Bilt, Affirm aim to capitalize on proposed credit card rate cap

Bilt and Affirm are launching new credit products in response to political pressure for a cap on credit card interest rates. Bilt introduced three new cards with a 10% interest rate cap for one year, while Affirm is expanding its buy now/pay later services for rent. Analysts note that the proposed Credit Card Competition Act, which could impact bank revenues, is gaining momentum but still faces low odds of passing. The moves highlight a shift towards alternative credit sources as consumers may struggle to qualify for traditional credit cards.

Michael Burry Sounds the Alarm on Payments Sector – XYZ, PYPL, FOUR

Michael Burry published an extensive analysis on the payments sector, focusing on Block (XYZ), PayPal (PYPL), and Shift4 (FOUR). He criticized the sector for its minimal organic growth, reliance on acquisitions, and use of accounting tricks to inflate earnings. Burry expressed skepticism about PayPal's sustainability, suggested Shift4 is only worth $30 per share, and found Block's value proposition unconvincing at current levels. He advises investors to avoid the payments sector due to its high-risk nature and reliance on acquisition-driven growth.
