HVN and Affirm Partner to Offer Flexible Payments on Private Home and Villa Rentals

HVN Travel Group, the leading professional marketplace for private home and villa rentals, and Affirm (NASDAQ: AFRM), the payment network that empowers consumers and helps merchants drive growth, have partnered to provide flexible payment options to those planning their next haven experience. Through the partnership, U.S.-based travelers working with HVN's network of professional trip designers will now have access to increased payment flexibility options when renting short-term residential stays.

Launched in 2019, HVN is your passport to the world's most unique professionally-managed residences, homes, suites, and villas: private havens bringing together the best of hospitality and home. Whether booking a two-bedroom apartment in Miami or a ten-bedroom estate in Mykonos, every haven experience is professionally managed from start to finish by a trusted hospitality team and backed by the signature Haven Guarantee. From alpine chalets to beachfront hideaways, HVN makes it possible to find your haven and live your dreams anywhere in the world.

Now, when booking a reservation on stayhvn.com between $250-$17,500 USD in total value, eligible U.S.-based travelers will have the option to select Affirm at checkout and pay over time via flexible monthly installments. This new payment option enables travelers to split the cost of vacation rentals into simple monthly payments over three, six, or 12 months. Customers are shown the total cost of their rental upfront, which will not increase as Affirm never charges late or hidden fees. 

For professional trip designers, using HVN's self-checkout bookable links to offer Affirm as a flexible payment option to travelers can help increase the likelihood of conversion, average booking value, and repeat client loyalty.

"Every haven experience is one-of-a-kind, and we are constantly seeking ways to provide enhanced flexibility, personalization, and choice to travelers throughout their booking journey," said Megan Partridge, Chief Product Officer at HVN. "Through our partnership with Affirm, trip designers are now empowered to offer a unique flexible payment option that invites travelers to dream - without worrying about paying for their entire stay upfront."

A leader in professionalizing the emerging category of residential stays, HVN is one of the first short-term rental platforms to partner with Affirm, joining top travel merchants including Expedia, Priceline, and Booking.
