Affirm CTA on Magento

So I work for a third part reseller of goods and I’ve noticed that over the past year customers using affirm to check out has increased significantly (probably dude to COVID).

Currently we have a CTA on our catalog pages saying “as low as X per month with affirm” under every product but out of everything on the page, it loads last. Pretty significantly too. Talking with Affirm, they say that we must have a clickable link when displaying “as long as X per month.”

I have two questions around this subject:

1) Has anyone else noticed a long loading time?

2) what kind of Affirm CTA works best for e-commerce websites?

We are on magento commerce on prem.
