Klarna has officially expanded its integration with Apple Pay, bringing its popular flexible payment options to customers in France and Italy. Eligible shoppers in these regions can now access seamless “Buy Now, Pay Later” services directly through the Apple Pay interface they already know and trust.
This latest rollout marks a significant milestone for the digital payments giant, expanding its Apple Pay presence to a total of eight major markets. France and Italy join the ranks of the U.S., UK, Canada, Denmark, Spain, and Sweden, where users have already been enjoying the ability to split payments or delay billing.
When checking out online, in-app on an iPhone or iPad, or even in-store using an iPhone, customers can now select Klarna as their payment method. From there, you can choose to split your purchase into three interest-free monthly installments or opt to pay the full amount up to 30 days later. For larger purchases, there are even options to spread the cost over a longer period with competitive interest rates starting as low as 0%.
Payments made with Klarna stay encrypted, giving you peace of mind that your financial data stays protected, just as any Apple Pay transaction would. Sebastian Siemiatkowski, Klarna’s CEO, said, “We’ve seen incredible excitement from consumers using Klarna on Apple Pay across the U.S., UK, and Canada, and more recently across the Nordics and Southern Europe.”
