After a year and a half as our Chief Revenue Officer (and two and a half years as our first Chief Capital Officer prior) Geoffrey Kott has made the decision to step down from his role at Affirm. Geoff played an instrumental role in scaling Affirm’s business during a period of significant growth and evolution for the company. We are grateful that Geoff will be staying on as a special advisor to me and Affirm through April 1.

We are fortunate to have a great bench of leaders at Affirm, and Wayne Pommen will be stepping in as our Chief Revenue Officer. As a former CEO with deep commercial, strategy, and leadership experience, Wayne has helped meaningfully grow our Canadian business, and joined Affirm through our January 2021 acquisition of PayBright. He has been a great addition to our leadership team, and brings a unique understanding of our merchant relationships and growth strategies.?
