Get the best deal possible.
Waiting and hoping to get a better price for those potential presents? Klarna has you covered. You can keep an eye on sales by turning on price-drop notifications to receive real-time updates when your top picks go on sale. Here’s how to get started: Simply click the ‘My Klarna’ tab in the Klarna app. Go to settings via the cog icon in the top right corner and select ‘Notifications.’ Then update your preferences and you’ll be the first to know when prices drop. You can also browse exclusive deals from our retail partners.
In our The State of Smoooth: 2021 Holidays Unwrapped Report, we found that the majority of shoppers (72%) are starting their browsing and buying earlier this season to take advantage of sales and deals.
Spend consciously, shop confidently.
Once you’ve picked out the perfect presents, you can choose to pay for your purchases in the way that best suits your budget. If you’d like to split the cost, take advantage of Klarna’s Pay in Four interest-free option, which helps you manage your cashflow by allowing you to divide the cost of your purchase into four interest-free installments.
As we’ve learned and our Holidays Unwrapped Report confirms, younger generations are turning away from traditional credit in favor of debit and other smarter interest-free options at checkout. Gen Z, Millennial, and Gen X shoppers are more likely to pay with debit (59%) over credit (50%), and the majority also seek out flexible payment options, like Klarna’s Pay in 4 solution, when shopping this holiday season (Gen Z: 75%, Millennials: 76%, Gen X: 60%).
Manage payments in the app.
With so much going on during the holiday season, we know how easy it can be to overlook a bill or two. With that in mind, we always remind you when a payment is due. Don’t want to risk it? Simply enable ‘autopay’ within the app and you won’t need to manually confirm the payment amount each month. Just, sit back, relax and your monthly payments will automatically be debited from your account. Should you miss one, you may be charged a late fee of no more than $7.
