“The goal is to make Klarna ubiquitous, with Klarna in every checkout so we can provide consumers everywhere with a more flexible and fair payment option. This growth reflects the trust both merchants and consumers continue to place in us to deliver seamless, flexible payment options,” said David Sykes, chief commercial officer of Klarna.

“I can only call this a win-win: the more merchants we have on board, the more accessible our services are to customers, and the more customers using our services, the more beneficial it is for merchants.“
