How to unsubscribe from Affirm emails

To unsubscribe from Affirm emails, sign in, tap the profile icon with your initials at the top right, open Settings → Notifications (under Other Settings), untick the email boxes you no longer want, and save - then handle promotional offers through Affirm's separate marketing preferences link or the footer unsubscribe in any offer email. Affirm is unusually structured about this: notifications are split into six named categories, and because Affirm is a lender, two of them are locked by design. Regulatory and security messages cannot be switched off, and payment reminders should stay on for as long as you owe anything.

Affirm's six notification categories

Knowing the names makes the settings screen make sense. Affirm's help center lists: Account alerts (loan activity), Delinquency alerts (overdue loans - SMS opt-out only), Location (nearby deals), Payments (scheduled payments), Regulatory (legal and compliance - push and email locked), and Security Notifications (personal-info and device alerts - locked on every channel). Marketing offers and product news live outside this list entirely, behind their own preferences page.

Step by step: the Notifications screen

1. Sign in to the Affirm app or at affirm.com.
2. Tap or click the profile icon with your initials, top right.
3. In the browser, click Settings; then scroll down and select Notifications under Other Settings.
4. Untick the boxes for what you do not want, per channel and category.
5. Tap or click Save.

The screen also links out to the marketing preferences page for offers and news about Affirm products - that link, or the footer unsubscribe in the promotional email itself, is what actually kills the deals mail. Texts have a shortcut of their own: reply STOP to any Affirm SMS.

What to leave on - this part matters

A BNPL loan is still a loan. Keep Payments and Account alerts email enabled while any plan is active: those reminders are what stand between you and a missed installment, and a missed installment can cost fees or hurt your credit. Affirm keeping Security Notifications and Regulatory email mandatory is a feature, not an annoyance - a new-device alert you cannot accidentally disable is exactly what you want from a company holding your loan.

Clean up the rest of the pay-later inboxful

Few people carry only one BNPL relationship. The same checkout season that signed you up for Affirm probably added Klarna and Afterpay to your inbox as well. ClearMyInbox scans the mailbox once, shows every subscription sender it finds, and processes the unsubscribes in bulk instead of you working through three preference centers by hand.

Then confirm the opt-out held

Preference screens fail quietly: a save that did not register, a marketing list the checkbox never covered. ClearMyInbox re-examines your inbox around a month after each unsubscribe and reports whether the sender truly stopped, labeling it Confirmed stopped or flagging continued mail so you know to escalate - for Affirm, that means the marketing preferences link or a support ticket.

A note on filters

Resist the urge to auto-delete everything from the Affirm domain. Payment reminders, regulatory notices, and security alerts ride the same sender infrastructure as the offers, and a domain-wide rule would bury mail you are contractually and financially better off reading. If you filter at all, match the promotional sender narrowly and archive instead of deleting - the full technique is covered in how to stop unwanted emails on Gmail.
