Do's

Don'ts

Before going through the different ways Klarna can be displayed at the checkout, let’s review all the assets available at checkout:

1. Payment Descriptor: name of the payment method in merchant checkout, automatically returned by Klarna in the API call.
2. Klarna Badge: it is shown next to the payment descriptor.
3. The Widget: it is loaded below the Payment Descriptor. It can contain banners for Klarna Deals and 0% Financing promotion, and buyers protection information together with learn more.

Klarna API will respond automatically with corresponding payment descriptor for the market and language indicated by locale parameter in the API request.

Payment button

✅ Do’s

In case you want to keep a consistent payment button across all the payment providers in your checkout, follow these two guidelines:

• Use exactly the same payment button for all the payment providers.

Redirection is not needed by if you decide to do so, use the following copies:

• "After Clicking “X”, you will be redirected to Klarna"
• "You will be redirected to Klarna"

Avoid using copies that are dependent on what payment options the customer have like:

• “They will be in touch when your payments are due"
• “You’ll need to provide a debit or credit card to pay for your 4-interest-free payments”
