Klarna offers fair, sustainable payment and shopping solutions. Klarna’s credit products offer an alternative to traditional credit, with zero interest. The company conducts robust eligibility checks to ensure it only lends to those who are able to pay back, which is why 99% of its lending is repaid. More and more consumers are seeing the benefit of interest free buy now pay later, with total UK BNPL spend to amount to GBP 30 billion in 2024. 

Other recent news from Klarna 

In May 2024, Klarna had expanded in Slovakia with the Pay in 3 service. Leveraging artificial intelligence, Klarna's payment and shopping service would be available to Slovak customers through the Klarna application and at integrated retail partners' online stores. Pay in 3 allows consumers to split their purchases into three interest-free payments, with the initial instalment paid upfront and subsequent instalments billed every 30 days. This feature enables consumers to manage their expenses more evenly while receiving their goods before completing the full payment. 

In the same month, The Network for Electronic Transfers (NETS) Group entered a collaboration with Klarna to provide payment methods to its Nordic merchant customers. Through this partnership, Nets would integrate Klarna’s payment methods into its checkout for ecommerce merchant customers in the Nordic regions, including Sweden, Norway, and Denmark. In addition to requiring a single technical integration, consumers can pay with Klarna, having the ability to choose from a range of Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) and instalment products.
