What’s Klarna and how does it work?

You may have spotted McConks recently rolled out Klarna, alongside our other methods of payment. We appreciate that some customers may want to spread the cost of their McConks SUP and paddle board accessories purchases. And what works for one individual doesn’t always work for others. So it’s good to have options. Hence why it’s now available. But what is it and how does it work?

Shop now.

With Klarna you’ll get the option to shop now and pay later for your purchase. At the checkout stage, there’ll be the pink icon that you can select if this is your preferred method of payment.

Founded in Stockholm, Sweden, it’s one of Europe’s fastest-growing companies and a leading alternative payment provider. Their vision is to make shopping smoooth, adding value for consumers and retailers with unique payment options and superior customer experience.

Right now, over 147 million people worldwide use the system at over 400,000 online stores.

Pay later.

Klarna allows you to pay for goods within 30 days. Get what you love today and pay up to 30 days after placing your order. No upfront payments required.

You can also split your payments into three chunks and spread the cost of your purchase over time. Enter the credit or debit card details of your choice and make automatic payments every 30 days. Your first instalment will be collected when your order is confirmed by the merchant (us, McConks) and instalments 2 and 3 are scheduled 30 and 60 days later, respectively. There’s no interest or hidden fees.

Shopping made easy.

Shopping is easy. Add item(s) to your cart and head to the checkout. Select Klarna at the checkout to pay as you like for your purchase. Manage your orders and payments in the app.

To keep on top of what you’re purchasing is simple. You can see all of your purchases in one place, pay any open balances, explore unique content and much more in the Klarna app. You can also log into your Klarna account at https://app.klarna.com/login. If you need any help, their Customer Service is there for you.

Security.

Klarna also take security seriously. There are strong anti-fraud controls in place to protect our customers and prevent fraudsters from making unauthorised purchases. This should also instil peace of mind.

We will also add this, just a reminder. Please spend responsibly. Borrowing more than you can afford could seriously affect your financial status. Make sure you can afford to make your monthly repayments on time.
