2. 3.2.
  An API key has been generated.

Integration overview

This guide covers both iOS (Swift) and Android (Kotlin) integrations.

Adding On-site messaging to a native app is a straightforward process. At a high level, achieving this tailored experience requires the following steps:

Request access to On-site messaging.
Add the Mobile SDK Messaging library.
Initialize the Klarna SDK.
Create the native messaging view and add it to the screen.

Add Mobile SDK Messaging Library

iOS

Swift Package Manager

In Xcode, navigate to File → Swift Packages → Add Package Dependency and enter the repository URL: https://github.com/klarna/klarna-mobile-sdk-spm

In Version, Select Up to Next Major and take the default option. Then choose KlarnaNetworkMessaging in the Package Product column.

Cocoapods

When using Cocoapods, the SDK can be added by including the dependency in the Podfile:

SWIFT

1 2

 pod "KlarnaNetworkMessaging"

Followed by performing:

SWIFT

1 2

 pod install

The KlarnaNetworkMessaging module can then be imported in the workspace.

Android

First, add the Klarna Mobile SDK Maven repository:

KOTLIN

1 2 3 4

repositories {
    maven("https://x.klarnacdn.net/mobile-sdk/")
}

Next, add the Klarna Mobile SDK Messaging Library as a dependency to the application:

KOTLIN

1 2 3 4

dependencies {
    implementation("com.klarna.mobile.sdk:klarna-network-messaging:2.x.x")
}

Initialize the Klarna SDK

The first step to add On-site messaging to an application is to initialize the Klarna SDK and provide the required configuration:

SWIFT

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

// Create an instance of KlarnaConfiguration
let configuration = KlarnaConfiguration(
    clientId: clientId,
    locale: locale,
    klarnaNetworkSessionToken: klarnaNetworkSessionToken
)
// Initialize Klarna
let klarnaResult = Klarna.initialize(configuration: configuration)
do {
    self?.klarnaInstance = try klarnaResult.get()

Parameters

Param	Type	Presence	Description
clientId	String	Required	The client ID of the partner account that is integrating the Mobile SDK.
locale	String	Optional	Set the default locale(ISO 3166-1 alpha-2) for the SDK. System default locale will be used if not set.
klarnaNetworkSessionToken	String	Optional	The Klarna Network Session Token allows the SDK to be initialized with an existing session. The token is retrievable server-side via the Network Session API.

Create the Native View

The On-site messaging native view is called KlarnaMessagingPlacementView. This view can be created programmatically and added to the layout with the desired layout options.

SWIFT

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

// Create an instance of KlarnaMessagingPlacementConfiguration
// Depending on your requirements, you can create `CreditPromotionBadge` or 
// `CreditPromotionAutoSize` configuration
let placementConfiguration = KlarnaMessagingPlacementConfiguration.creditPromotionBadge(
    theme: .automatic,
    amount: 10000,
    currency: "USD"
)
// Create an instance of the view
let placementView = KlarnaMessagingPlacementView(
