Apps such as Affirm, Afterpay and Klara do not require a hard credit check as is needed to apply for credit cards, so they do not appear on credit reports. They generally charge late fees rather than interest. Using these apps will not help credit scores since the apps do not report to the credit reporting agencies. Beware, it can be very easy for users to take on more credit than can be paid back.
