Integration principles and guidelines

Integration principles

When designing solutions and integrating with Klarna APIs, think about long-term performance and scalability from the very beginning. It is critical to craft a scalable architecture capable of supporting growth and ensuring efficient API use as well as enabling regular monitoring and agile responsiveness are essential for maintaining peak performance. Our solutions are designed around the following principles in mind: :

  • Dynamic product availability: confirm product availability dynamically and retrieval of descriptors. This approach allows to tailor the customer experience to increase conversion rates as well as enables flexibility to accommodate future product developments, reducing development time when entering new markets or launching new products. It also enhances compliance with regulatory changes.
  • Idempotency and fallback logic: Implement idempotency wherever possible to ensure consistency between systems. Establish fallback logic to synchronize updates and system alignment in case of incidents or delays. This strategy improves recovery time in the event of a disruption.
  • Embrace continuous improvement: Regularly test, learn, and refine your integration to keep pace with customer expectations and industry developments. Stay updated with the latest features from Klarna to further improve the customers experience. By adopting a customer-focused, security-conscious, and performance-driven approach and committing to continuous improvement, you can develop a Klarna solution that not only fulfills your business goals but also delights your customers.
