January 10, 2019 – Today, leading global payments provider, Klarna announced a new collaboration with Daniel Wellington, maker of classic and timeless watches. Loyal shoppers of Daniel Wellington will now benefit from Klarna’s newest payment option, which allows customers to pay for their watches and accessories in 4 equal interest-free installments collected bi-weekly from the shopper’s chosen debit or credit card.
“Our aim at Klarna is to provide shoppers with convenience and flexibility – giving them more control over how and when they pay because consumers have come to expect and demand convenient payment options at checkout,” said Michael Rouse, Chief Commercial Officer of Klarna. “We understand that timepieces are an investment and are thrilled to partner with Daniel Wellington to allow their consumers the ability to slice up their purchase and pay over a period of time.”
