Introducing AFPA’s New 0% Interest, No Credit Check Payment Plans: Education Made Accessible

October 8, 2024

At AFPA, we know that pursuing your passion and investing in your education is a big decision—one that can transform your career and life. But we also understand that the financial aspect can sometimes feel like a barrier. That’s why we’re excited to introduce AFPA’s new in-house payment plans, designed to make accessing the certification programs you want and need easier than ever before!

With 0% interest on every plan and no credit checks, our new payment options allow you to invest in your future without the stress of upfront costs or complicated financing.

Why We Made This Change

In the past, AFPA partnered with third-party financing services like Affirm. While they offered flexible plans, their interest rates weren’t always guaranteed, and not everyone qualified for the best terms. We wanted to provide a fairer foundation for all AFPA students.

We’re rolling out in-house payment plans to ensure that every prospective AFPA student, regardless of their credit score or financial background, has access to an affordable, flexible, and transparent way to pay for their online education.

“As the Senior Director of AFPA, an innovative leader in online professional education, I am proud to be part of a mission that empowers nutrition coaches, health coaches, fitness professionals, and personal trainers to make a profound global impact. At AFPA, we believe in the transformative power of our students to drive positive change in health, wellness, and fitness worldwide. That’s why we’ve always prioritized making our top-tier education accessible to those on the front lines of this movement. To further this commitment, we are excited to introduce the new AFPA payment plan option—a step toward ensuring that more aspiring professionals can access the education they need to lead, inspire, and create a healthier world.”
