Google is experimenting with direct integration for Affirm, Zip, and possibly other Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) services in the Chrome browser. This is the same thing Microsoft did with Edge a few years ago, and is now in Apple Pay in iOS 18.
"When enabled, users will have the option to pay with buy now pay later with Affirm on specific merchant webpages.”

Yeah, instead of 0%, fixed payment loans, people should take on 18-60% apr credit cards instead! That’ll help people unable to afford large purchases in a single go!
