Our beginnings
Affirm and Resolve share their founding history in Max Levchin. Max was previously co-founder and CTO at PayPal and founded Affirm in 2012. Resolve was developed in Max’s San Francisco based venture studio, HVF, by Chris Tsai and Brian Nguyen. Resolve’s co-founders Chris & Brian had previously worked together on a successful fintech startup that was acquired by Indiegogo. Having both worked closely with Affirm, the pair saw an opportunity in the ‘buy now, pay later’ space - but with a focus on B2B. Chris & Brian are Y Combinator alums, were Wharton MBA classmates, and hold technical degrees from MIT and Stanford between them. Resolve now unlocks net terms for thousands of businesses in the USA, and their global team is expanding rapidly.
