Klarna has joined forces with GoCardless to tap into the US audience of 21 million.
Customers who use Klarna are able to pay in four instalments with zero interest.
“The US is a key market for Klarna, and we continue to see strong growth, doubling our customer base to over 21 million from last year,” said Kalrna CEO Koen Köppen.
“To continue along that trajectory we need partners that not only provide our consumers and retailers more choice and control but also offer us cutting-edge technology and best-in-class service. We’re excited to work with GoCardless and leverage its expertise in account-to-account payments as we expand in the US.”
Hiroki Takeuchi, who is the co-founder and CEO of GoCardless, commented: “We’ve been proud to work with Klarna in the UK since 2018. From the start, it was clear one of our value-adds was our global bank debit network, enabling Klarna to access multiple markets through a single platform. After years of phenomenal growth across the world, we’re thrilled to be Klarna’s bank debit provider as they make further inroads in the US.”
