Klarna becomes an official Apple reseller; ‘I love Apple’s products!’ – Klarna CEO

Klarna, the AI-powered global payments network and shopping assistant, has unveiled “Apple from Klarna”, a storefront in the Klarna app and Klarna.com where customers can purchase Apple products using its flexible payment options. Now an official Apple reseller, Klarna also launches a brand new, bespoke payment option for Apple products: Upgrade Financing. This new payment option makes Apple’s innovative product lineups available for as little as $7.99 a month* exclusively through “Apple from Klarna.”
Upgrade Financing enables Klarna customers to purchase the latest Apple Watch, iPad, and Mac lineups through low-cost monthly payment plans, so customers can get:
• Apple Watch SE starting at $7.99 a month
• Apple Watch Series 10 at $12.99 a month
• iPad Air starting at $17.99 a month
• MacBook Air 13-inch with M3 starting at $19.99 a month
At the end of the loan term, customers can trade in their device and upgrade to the latest model, or they can choose to keep their current device for a final, interest-free payment.
“I love Apple’s products! I love the design, the security and the ease-of-use” said Sebastian Siemiatkowski, Co-founder and CEO of Klarna, in a statement. “So it is super exciting that we’re simplifying the shopping experience for Apple products in the Klarna app and Klarna.com. Apple from Klarna gives our 25 million active US consumers another way to access the latest and best tech as they work, play and create.”
The introduction of “Apple from Klarna” underscores Klarna’s mission to provide consumers everywhere with a seamless shopping experience and more payment options.
Customers can shop the latest and greatest products across Mac, iPad and Apple Watch on “Apple from Klarna,” including:
