Backwards compatible integration

Integrate with Klarna’s Global API Ecosystem by using dedicated test and live environments, global endpoints, and best practices to ensure secure, scalable, and reliable performance.

To optimize your integration and prepare for future updates, ensure you are following Klarna’s recommendations:

  • Flexible data handling: implement flexible data parsing that can accommodate additional fields without causing errors or disruptions.
  • Regular updates: stay updated with our latest API documentation and changes. Regular updates to your integration can help leverage new features and enhancements while maintaining compatibility. Klarna will keep you informed about deprecations.
  • Error handling: develop robust error handling mechanisms to manage unexpected API responses or failures gracefully. This minimizes the impact on the customer experience and makes your application more resilient. By adhering to these guidelines and preparing your integration for both backward-compatible changes and keeping your integration up-to-date with the latest API version from Klarna will ensure a seamless interaction with Klarna’s evolving API landscape.
