PayPal Co-Founder Meets Press to Talk Future of Technology, Diversity, & Immigration Reform at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign--(Business Wire)-- Affirm:
About Affirm Affirm is reimagining financial services - from credit cards to deposit banking. The company's first service, Buy with Affirm, is an amazingly simple, new way to get affordable financing at the online point of sale and lets shoppers pay for purchases across multiple months with transparent, fairly-priced fees built into every payment. About Glow Glow has created an intuitive and elegant app that uses data science to provide more insight and information to women about their health. Regardless of a woman's goals - trying to avoid pregnancy or hoping to conceive - Glow takes the data they enter and produces personalized insights about their body and menstrual cycle. A feature of Glow called Glow First offers financial assistance to women specifically looking to conceive through a not-for-profit crowd-funding program that helps reduce the cost of fertility treatments. Since launching in August 2013, the app has aided more than 25,000 pregnancies. About HVF Labs HVF stands for "Hard Valuable Fun." It was founded in 2011 by Max Levchin as the umbrella project for all of his data-focused undertakings. Projects he is prototyping or developing all start here. He is interested in consumer finance, enterprise document security, and disease prevention/wellness industries. But if it's got data, he wants to think about it. To date, two companies have been spun out of HVF: Affirm and Glow.
