H&R Block Canada taps Affirm to make tax season less taxing
Eligible filers can now split the cost of professional tax services into simple, transparent installments — with no late fees, no hidden charges, and no compounding interest. A recent H&R Block survey found that 37% of Canadians do not feel they have a good understanding of all the tax credits and benefits they may be eligible for, underscoring the importance of expert support.
This marks the first time a major Canadian tax preparation service has partnered with Affirm to offer a pay-over-time option. With many consumers looking to tax season as a way to put money back in their pockets, Affirm and H&R Block are giving Canadians a smarter way to access the expert help they need to maximize their tax benefits, credits, and refunds, by offering the option to spread the cost out over time.
Getting started is painless. After selecting Affirm at checkout in participating offices — and coming soon online — clients get a real-time approval decision and can choose the payment plan that works for them. No surprises, no fine print traps. Just clear, upfront terms and the peace of mind that comes with it.
“Tax season is a time when Canadians can really benefit from having an expert in their corner, and we’re committed to making that experience as seamless as possible,” said
“For many Canadians, tax season can already be a lot — deadlines, paperwork, and more than a little financial uncertainty. Flexible payment options give clients access to guidance they may really need but wouldn’t otherwise pursue,” said
H&R Block joins a roster of nearly 480,000 merchants who trust Affirm, including leading Canadian retailers like Amazon, Apple, Samsung, Brown’s Shoes, and more.
