Klarna Expands Beyond Payments with New Balance and Cashback Features
Klarna, a leading FinTech innovator, has announced the launch of new balance and cashback tools, marking a significant expansion beyond its traditional payment services. This move is part of Klarna’s strategy to enhance its role as a comprehensive financial partner for consumers worldwide.
The new features have been introduced across 12 countries, including major markets in Europe and the US.
The Klarna Balance feature allows users to deposit funds directly into their Klarna account from their bank accounts. Additionally, customers can earn cashback on purchases made through the Klarna app or from processing refunds on returned items.
Complementing the balance feature, Klarna has introduced a cashback system that rewards users for their loyalty. Consumers can earn up to 10% cashback on purchases made at participating retailers through the Klarna app. This initiative not only promotes frequent use of Klarna’s platform but also provides tangible rewards that enhance the shopping experience.
Sebastian Siemiatkowski, co-founder and CEO of Klarna, highlighted the significance of these new offerings: “Our loyal user base has been integral to our success, and these new features make it easier for customers to manage their spending. We aim to support everyday financial activities, allowing users to earn rewards and manage their funds efficiently with Klarna.”
In addition, Klarna has expanded its offerings in the US with the introduction of the Klarna Card, building on its successful launches in Sweden, Germany, and the UK. The Klarna Card provides a sustainable alternative to traditional credit cards, offering a more equitable approach to managing payments and purchases.
