Payment Acquiring Account

Payment Acquiring Account define a specific configuration an Acquiring Partner has when operating on Klarna Network

The Payment Acquiring Account defines a specific configuration that an Acquiring Partner has when operating on the Klarna Network. It connects configuration data points from the Acquiring Partner, such as a Partner Business Entity, a Settlement Configuration, to one or more Payment Accounts. It also indirectly links to Payment Transactions.

Each Payment Acquiring Account has a unique identifier and is defined under a Payment Acquiring Product. This setup allows an Acquiring Partner to configure multiple operating structures—for example, a regional Partner Business Entity with a specific Settlement Configuration—to be defined within Klarna and used across the Klarna Network.
