Eligible travellers can now book their next trip easily and transparently, with no hidden or late fees

TORONTO: Just in time for the busy summer travel season, KAYAK, the world’s leading travel search engine, and Affirm (NASDAQ: AFRM), the payment network that empowers consumers and helps merchants drive growth, today announced the expansion of their exclusive partnership into Canada. This builds on the companies’ successful collaboration in the U.S., which has empowered consumers to plan and pay over time for their travels since January 2023.

By selecting Affirm at checkout on ca.KAYAK.com, approved KAYAK travellers in Canada can split the total cost of flights, accommodations, and car rentals/sharing into monthly payments. From there, consumers go through a quick, real-time eligibility check. If approved, they can choose the customized payment plan that best suits their needs and never pay any late or hidden fees.

“Consumers are increasingly turning to Affirm when booking their flights, hotels, rides, and more as flexible payment options remain a top priority for travellers across Canada,” said Wayne Pommen, Chief Revenue Officer of Affirm. “This expansion with KAYAK is a natural next step for our long-standing partnership as we look to offer even more travellers peace of mind when paying for their next trip using Affirm.”

“Our partnership with Affirm opens up possibilities for travellers who are looking for more flexibility in their payment options. With international flight prices averaging $1,2701, travellers can plan and pay for those bucket list trips over time, without any hidden fees,” said Paul Jacobs, GM and SVP of KAYAK North America.

Expanding with KAYAK into Canada further builds on Affirm’s rapid growth worldwide, with over 350,000 merchants offering Affirm at checkout, including partnerships with Booking Holdings brands Agoda, Booking.com, and Priceline. Leading Canadian retailers, including Amazon, Apple, Samsung, Brown’s Shoes, CheapOair, and more offer Affirm’s payment solutions to their customers.
