Klarna is a flexible payment service that offers ways to buy now and pay later. Simply select Klarna at checkout when it’s available and we’ll quickly verify your details to complete the order. You can track and manage all payments in the Klarna app, with reminders to help you stay on schedule.

Flexible payments allow customers to select the method and timing of their payments for purchases. They include options like "Buy Now, Pay Later" (BNPL), enabling you to buy items immediately and pay in interest-free installments, to pay off the balance in 30 days, or to spread costs over an extended period. Services such as Klarna facilitate these flexible payments, allowing the option to either make manageable smaller payments or to pay the full amount upfront, depending on your convenience and budget.

Pay in full, Pay in 30 days, and Pay in 4 options are interest-free when you pay on time. If you choose Pay over time or miss a payment, interest or fees may apply. Check the terms of your payment plan to understand what costs you could incur for missing a payment. Use our payment calculator to estimate the cost.

In some cases, you may be able to reschedule your Klarna payment. This can be done through the app or by contacting Klarna customer support. Options may depend on your payment plan and account status.

You can use Klarna’s buy now, pay later options anywhere you shop. Choose Klarna at checkout when it’s available, or pay with Klarna using the app, Klarna Card, Apple Pay, or Google Pay. Availability and eligibility may vary depending on the purchase.

You can view your payment schedule anytime through the Klarna app or website. Your account shows upcoming payments, due dates, and amounts, so you can stay on top of your payments.
