Affirm Expands Buy Now, Pay Later To In-Store Purchases Via Stripe Terminal
The company and Stripe are extending their collaboration to the checkout counter, introducing buy now, pay later at the point of sale through Stripe Terminal.
The firm said its in-person BNPL option is now available on Stripe Terminal across the U.S. and Canada, giving merchants a unified way to offer pay-over-time both online and in stores via a network of more than one million devices.At checkout on Stripe Terminal, shoppers can select 'Pay with Affirm,' scan a code with their phone, complete a quick eligibility step, and, if approved, choose customized installment plans.
Financing windows range from roughly one month to five years and are designed to accommodate purchases from about $35 up to $30,000. Affirm says it approves only amounts it believes customers can responsibly repay and does not levy late or hidden fees.
'We're excited to deepen our multi-year partnership with Stripe and bring Affirm to more shoppers via Stripe's in-person payment solution,' said Wayne Pommen, Chief Revenue Officer at Affirm. 'With over 80% of retail spend still happening in physical stores, enabling Affirm through Stripe Terminal gives us a powerful new way to help merchants drive growth and meet customers where they are – with more choice, transparency, and control at checkout.'
The move brings BNPL to physical retail at scale, potentially lifting conversion and ticket sizes for merchants that already use Stripe online. For Affirm, the expansion broadens distribution without requiring separate hardware or onboarding, while retailers benefit from a consistent customer flow across digital and in-store channels.
The integration is live for eligible U.S. and Canadian sellers using Stripe Terminal. Stripe customers can find setup details on Stripe's resources and documentation pages.
Price Action: AFRM shares are trading higher by 1.15% to $77.77 at last check Wednesday.

NBA clears Boston Celtics' $6.1 billion sale to Bill Chisholm
A group headed by Bill Chisholm is set to take control of the Boston Celtics after the NBA Board of Governors unanimously approved the sale on Wednesday. The NBA wrote in a statement, 'The transaction is expected to close shortly.' The reported $6.1 billion valuation for the club makes it the second-largest sale price for a US sports franchise, behind the $10 billion valuation for the Los Angeles Lakers when Mark Walter purchased that team in June. Chisholm and his partners are buying at least 51 percent of the Celtics. The ownership stake will increase in 2028, according to the purchase contract, when Chisholm's group is scheduled to buy out the remaining minority shareholders at a $7.3 billion valuation. According to multiple media reports, Chisholm will take over as the Celtics' governor when the sale goes through. Outgoing owner Wyc Grousbeck is expected to serve as alternate governor and remain the CEO through 2028. Grousbeck will cede his role when he no longer has the required ownership stake of at least 15 percent. Chisholm, the co-founder and managing partner of the California-based private equity firm STG Partners, is a Massachusetts native and longtime Celtics fan. Grousbeck and the outgoing ownership group Boston Basketball Partners LLC purchased the Celtics for $360 million in 2002. During that group's tenure, the club won NBA titles in 2007-08 and 2023-24 – the latter representing Boston's league-record 18th championship.

Canadians Shun U.S., Ennismore's IPO Impact, and MSC's Carbon Cuts
Listen to the day's top travel stories in under four minutes every weekday. Good morning from Skift. It's Thursday, August 14. Here's what you need to know about the business of travel today. Canadians are continuing to shun travel to the U.S., writes Associate Editor Rashaad Jorden. The number of Canadians returning by car from the U.S. dropped 37% in July from last year, marking the seventh straight month of declines. July also saw a roughly 26% decrease in Canadians returning by air from the U.S. However, the number of Canadians returning from destinations other than the U.S. rose roughly 6%. Japan and Brazil, among other countries, have registered double-digit increases in Canadian visitors between January and June. Listen to This Podcast Apple Podcasts | Spotify | Youtube | RSS Next, Hospitality Reporter Luke Martin explains how a successful IPO for Ennismore could change how investors view lifestyle hotels. Martin writes, although Wall Street has long prioritized scale and cost efficiency, a successful IPO could elevate design, brand heat, and food-and-beverage revenue as credible sources of long-term value. If Ennismore performs well as a public company, Martin notes that would change how developers in the U.S. pick brands. However, Martin writes that if an Ennismore IPO were to stumble, that would reinforce the prevailing view that lifestyle belongs inside big hotel groups, not as a standalone business on the public markets. Finally, MSC Cruises, the third-largest cruise operator by passenger numbers, says it managed to cut greenhouse gas emissions last year. But the cruise industry still has a lot of work to reduce its massive carbon footprint, writes Climate Reporter Darin Graham. MSC Cruises highlighted in its latest climate report the tweaks and strategies that helped it cut emissions, including using AI-controlled heating and cooling systems. In addition, MSC's move to plug ships into the grid while in port enabled ships to run on electricity. However, MSC said its overall emissions will start climbing again without more transformative decarbonization solutions as its fleet grows. A report from maritime consultancy DNV warns that by 2030, the global production of carbon-neutral fuels for cruise ships won't match demand.

Pittsburgh Home and Garden Show organizers file lawsuit against Monroeville Home and Garden Show
The organizers of the Pittsburgh Home and Garden Show have filed a lawsuit against the company that runs the Monroeville Home and Garden show. The Pittsburgh Home and Garden Show organizers are suing the company over their use of a similar name. Organizers of the Pittsburgh Home and Garden Show say they've used the name for more than four decades, dating back to the 1980s and registered the service mark in 1991. The Pittsburgh show claims that Jace, who runs the Monroeville Home and Garden Show, have that show scheduled to take place September 5 at the Monroeville Convention Center. The Pittsburgh Home and Garden Show is arguing that the Monroeville show's use of a similar name is intentional, saying that it's meant to deceive, mislead, and cause confusion. The lawsuit says Jace called the Pittsburgh Home and Garden Show's lawyers a few days ago, saying that it won't stop using the term "home and garden show," adding that they would see each other in court. The Pittsburgh Home and Garden Show is seeking an injunction that would stop Monroeville's show from using the term "home and garden show" in addition to other things like attorney fees.
