New York, NY – April 22nd, 2024 Klarna, the AI powered global payments network and shopping assistant, today announced the expansion of its partnership with Expedia Group to the US market. Klarna is now bringing its flexible payment offerings to millions of travelers, enabling them to book flights and stays using its popular interest-free Pay Now or Pay in 4 options across Expedia.com/Klarna and Hotels.com/Klarna. The rollout of Klarna to Expedia Group’s largest market comes after its successful launches in the UK, Germany, Sweden, and Finland. 

Erin Jaeger, Head of North America at Klarna: "We are incredibly excited to join forces with Expedia Group to provide more flexible payment solutions that cater to the evolving needs of modern travelers. By enabling US consumers to Pay Now or Pay Later with Klarna, we are not only making travel more financially accessible, but also enhancing the booking experience with our seamless payment process.
