Common Affirm Problems
When Affirm experiences issues, users typically encounter one or more of the following problems. Knowing what to look for helps you determine whether the issue is on your end or a widespread outage.
- Connection timeouts — The service takes too long to respond, often caused by server overload or network congestion between you and Affirm.
- Slow loading or degraded performance — Pages, feeds, or content load partially or much slower than usual, indicating Affirm servers are under heavy load.
- Login and authentication failures — Unable to sign in, getting "invalid credentials" errors, or being logged out repeatedly even with correct details.
- Error pages (500, 502, 503) — Affirm returns server error codes, meaning backend services are failing or undergoing maintenance.
- Regional or partial outages — Affirm works in some locations but not others, often due to CDN issues or localized infrastructure problems.
What to Do When Affirm Is Down
If Affirm appears to be down, follow these steps before assuming a widespread outage. Many issues can be resolved on your end in just a few minutes.
- 1Verify the outageCheck this status page to confirm Affirm is actually experiencing issues. If our monitors show "operational," the problem may be local to your device or network.
- 2Check your internet connectionTry loading other websites. If nothing loads, restart your router or switch from WiFi to mobile data. A quick speed test can confirm whether your connection is the issue.
- 3Clear cache and cookiesOutdated cached data can cause Affirm to display errors or fail to load. Clear your browser cache, or try opening Affirm in an incognito/private window.
- 4Try a different device or networkIf Affirm works on your phone but not your computer (or vice versa), the issue is likely device-specific. Trying a different network (VPN, mobile hotspot) can bypass ISP-level blocks.
- 5Wait and check backMost Affirm outages are resolved within 15-60 minutes. Bookmark this page to check back for real-time updates, or enable browser notifications for instant alerts when Affirm recovers.
