Pay Later in 30 days Terms and Conditions

  • l How do I Pay Later?

With Pay Later, you can pay for something you buy up to 30 days from the order placement or shipment of your goods or when services you have purchased become available. We will send you a payment reminder with details on how to make payment to us directly. If you’d like to pay off your balance before the 30 days is up you can make a payment early through the Klarna App by paying by card immediately.

  • l What if something goes wrong?

Klarna offers consumers Buyer Protection which means for example that you as a consumer do not have to pay for the ordered goods until you have received them, and that Klarna will assist you with problems related to your purchase.

  • l What happens if I cancel my purchase?

If you cancel your purchase, we’ll cancel your outstanding payment that’s due. If you want to return part of your order, you’ll only have to pay for the goods you want to keep.

  • l What happens if I fail to pay for my purchase?

It is important that you complete your payment for your purchase no later than on the communicated due date. If you fail to pay on time, you will be in default, and may be unable to use Klarna’s services in the future. If you do not pay for your purchase, Klarna may engage with an external debt collection agency to collect on our behalf.

 

Pay in 3 instalments Terms and Conditions

  • l How do I Pay in 3 instalments?

With Pay in 3, you can pay for something you buy by dividing the cost into three equal instalments. At checkout, you’ll see an option to ‘Pay Later in 3 interest-free instalments’. When you choose this option, just enter your card details to complete your purchase.(This feature is only available for orders over $30)

There won’t be any interest, fees or charges for using a debit or credit card by Klarna. Although your bank might charge you interest or other fees on top if you pay using an interest-bearing credit card, for example.

  • l When will Klarna take my payments?

At the point of purchase we’ll  freeze the first of your three instalments on your card. This means you won’t be able to spend this money on anything else. Once we've received confirmation that your items have been shipped, or that the order has been processed, the first of your three payments will be taken from your card automatically using the frozen amount. You’ll be able to see this on your card statement. If your items are not shipped, we’ll unfreeze or refund your money and you’ll be able to spend it again. This may take a few days depending on which bank you’re with. 

The second payment will be taken 30 days after the first payment, and the last one 60 days after the first payment. We’ll charge your card automatically when your payment is due so you don’t have to pay us back manually or worry about missing a payment.

The dates these payments are due will be sent to you by email, and you’ll be able to check them in our app.

  • l What happens if I cancel my order?

If your next payment or due date for the cancelled order is approaching, you can pause billing by choosing that order in the Klarna App and click “Report a problem”.

Once the store has confirmed the cancellation or return, Klarna will update your payments accordingly as well as refund any amounts due. Refund processing times to you may vary and can take up to 14 days depending on the consumer’s bank.

If you cancel your order, we’ll cancel any outstanding payments and pay back any amounts we’ve already taken from your card. We’ll do our best to pay you back as soon as we can.

If you want to return part of your order, we’ll take the amount from your outstanding balance. It won’t count as a payment, so you’ll need to continue making your payments on the dates they’re due until your balance is paid in full.

  • l What happens if you can’t take an instalment because I don’t have enough money on my card?

If we can’t take the first instalment from your card, we’ll let you know, and try up to two times again to take the money. We’ll let you know when we’re going to try again, so you’ll have plenty of time to put some money onto your card to make the payment.

If we can’t take the money from you after two attempts, we’ll roll the missed payment over to the second instalment. If we can’t take the second instalment, we’ll give you a few days to update your card details or make sure there’s enough money on your card.

If we still can’t take payment after two more attempts, we’ll roll over the payment to the next and final instalment. If we still can’t take the payment, we’ll try again twice. If we’re still not successful, we might ask you to pay the outstanding amount directly or use a debt collection agency to collect the money for us.

Klarna will always get in touch with you before charging your card. We will also contact you if we roll over a payment to the next due date or if we have to use a debt collection agency.

Not paying your instalments on time might also mean you can’t use Klarna in the future. We will report information to credit reference agencies about the payments you make, and about any payments that you fail to make on time.

 

  • l Will using Klarna affect my credit score?

No. We might carry out a limited credit search on you at a credit reference agency. This is a ‘soft credit check’, and won’t affect your credit score, or your chances of using credit in the future. You’ll be able to see it on your credit file, but no one else will.

We will report information to credit reference agencies about the payments you make, and about any payments that you fail to make on time. Failure to pay on time  might affect your ability to obtain credit in the future from Klarna and other lenders. More information about reporting to credit reference agencies can be found in Klarnas Privacy Notice.
