When booking trips with an expert travel consultant, approved
Liberty Travel customers can choose to pay over time with Affirm
and split the total cost of any purchase over $250 into monthly
payments. They are shown the total cost of their purchase and will
never pay more than they agree to upfront. Affirm never charges
customers any late or hidden fees.
“Liberty Travel is thrilled to partner with one of the leading
buy now, pay later providers, Affirm, offering our customers more
flexibility and transparency when planning and paying for their
well-earned vacations,” said Christina Pedroni, Liberty Travel’s
Executive Vice President. “Affirm has many great partners in the
travel industry, particularly in the online space, however here at
Liberty Travel we are excited to be able to provide our customers
the convenience and flexibility of using Affirm’s buy now, pay
later payment solution, while still having the benefit of a trusted
travel professional who can personalize a trip just for them.”
“Recent Affirm research revealed more than half of people are
looking for a buy now, pay later option at checkout, and partnering
with Liberty Travel helps us meet consumer demand for more flexible
payment options when booking travel,” said Pat Suh, Affirm’s SVP of
Revenue. “With more than 90% of people saying they will travel next
year, it’s critical that they are able to increase their purchasing
power responsibly, without hidden fees.”
Liberty Travel joins over 266,000 Affirm retail partners,
including SeatGeek, American Airlines, Priceline, Great Wolf Lodge,
Royal Caribbean, and more. Offering Affirm at checkout can drive
overall sales, increase average order value, and increase customer
repurchase rates.
