How do I Pay in 3 instalments?

There won’t be any interest, fees or charges for using a debit or credit card. Although your bank might charge you interest or other fees on top.
Which cards does Klarna accept?
Klarna accepts most cards except prepaid cards. Klarna may also not accept a card that’s due to expire in the near future. Klarna will let you know at checkout if your card hasn’t been accepted.
When will Klarna take my payments?
At the point of purchase Klarna will freeze the first of your three instalments on your card. This means you won’t be able to spend this money on anything else. Once Klarna have received confirmation that your items have been shipped, the first of your three payments will be taken from your card automatically using the freezed amount. You’ll be able to see this on your card statement. If your items are not shipped, Klarna will unfreeze your money and you’ll be able to spend it again. This may take a few days depending on which bank you’re with.
The second payment will be taken 30 days after the first payment, and the last one 60 days after the first payment.
The dates these payments are due will be sent to you by email, and you’ll be able to check them in our app.
Sometimes the shop (instore or online merchant) doesn’t charge you for your whole order all at once. They might do this if they ship your items at different times. If this happens, Klarna will make a new Pay in 3 plan for each part order they make. Each of these order parts will have its own due date, depending on when the shop confirms that part of your order.
If something goes wrong
What happens if my card is cancelled, or my card details change?
If your card is cancelled, you’ll still have to pay Klarna any money you owe as soon as Klarna ask you to.
If your card details change between your purchase and your final payment, you must tell Klarna your new details. You can do this online. If you don’t give Klarna this information, Klarna might ask the bank for your details.
What happens if I cancel my purchase?
If you cancel your purchase, Klarna will cancel any outstanding payments and pay back any amounts Klarna have already taken from your card. Klarna will do their best to pay you back as soon as Klarna can.
If you want to return part of your order, Klarna will take the amount from your outstanding balance. It won’t count as a payment, so you’ll need to continue making your payments on the dates they’re due until your balance is paid in full.
How and when will I receive my refund?
Refunds for Pay in 3 are processed in different ways. It depends on the status of your payment schedule, how much you’ve paid and if the merchant has processed a full or partial refund.
Full refund
If you’re due a full refund, Klarna will cancel any remaining payments and refund anything you’ve already paid to the card you used to make the payment.
Partial refund
If you’re due a partial refund that’s more than the remaining balance on your order, Klarna will deduct the amount from the outstanding balance first. Klarna will then refund the difference to the card you used to pay off the purchase.
If the partial refund is less than the remaining balance on your order, Klarna will deduct the amount from the outstanding balance. Klarna will then spread the remaining balance evenly over the remaining payments.
What happens if you can’t take an instalment because I don’t have enough money on my card?
If Klarna can’t take the first instalment from your card, Klarna will let you know, and try up to two times again to take the money. Klarna will let you know when they're going to try again, so you’ll have plenty of time to put some money onto your card to make the payment.
If Klarna can’t take the money from you after two attempts, Klarna will roll the missed payment over to the second instalment. If Klarna can’t take the second instalment, they'll give you a few days to update your card details or make sure there’s enough money on your card.
If Klarna still can’t take payment after two more attempts, Klarna will roll over the payment to the next and final instalment. If Klarna still can’t take the payment, Klarna will try again twice. If they're still not successful, Klarna might ask you to pay the outstanding amount directly or use a debt collection agency to collect the money for Klarna.
Klarna will always get in touch with you before charging your card. Klarna will also contact you if Klarna roll over a payment to the next due date or if Klarna have to use a debt collection agency.
Not paying your instalments on time might also mean you can’t use Klarna in the future.
Will using Klarna affect my credit score?
