Klarna On‑Site Messaging

Sell more with personalized payment offers

Since 2005, Klarna has been taking the friction out of payments for consumers globally, allowing shoppers to pay later in interest-free payments as an easy, flexible alternative to credit. Show your customers payment plans are available while they’re still shopping, leading to more conversions at checkout for you.

On-site messaging is simple to integrate, and highlighting buy now and pay later options before checkout can increase sales. The app provides customized messaging, ranging from banners promoting your partnership with Klarna and availability of payment options, to personalized promotions on product or cart pages.
