October 24, 2018 – Today, global payments provider, Klarna, has announced a new partnership with INDOCHINO, a leading retailer of custom suits, shirts, and accessories for the modern man.
INDOCHINO shoppers can now Slice it at the checkout by using Klarna’s online consumer financing to easily spread the cost of their purchase over 6-36 months. Slice it has a simple 4-step credit application process, real-time decisioning and is offered within the merchant’s own website – no re-directs – for a frictionless and fast purchase experience.
“We understand that suits can be a considerable investment. By helping consumers purchase their items over time, we can improve the buying journey,” said Michael Rouse, Chief Commercial Officer of Klarna. “Our latest research shows that the fashion industry is adopting new payment technology enthusiastically due to consumers’ demand for increased flexibility and financial control. 40% of retailers have already introduced smart payment options. It’s great to see forward-thinking brands, like INDOCHINO, acknowledging this and making changes to align with customer needs.”
By taking the premium made-to-measure experience direct to the consumer, INDOCHINO has created a superior alternative to off-the-rack clothing at ready-to-wear prices.
