Klarna announces Stateside first for Slice it in 4 option

Klarna has signed its first US merchant, Rancourt & Co., to use the new Slice it in 4 payment offering.

This allows consumers to pay for purchases in instalments via their debit or credit card. “Our mission is give all shoppers greater flexibility over how and when they pay for their purchases,” says Michael Rouse, Chief Commercial Officer at Klarna.

“In the US, consumers expect a variety of convenient payment options at checkout. By using Klarna younger, debt-conscious consumers, who prefer debit cards over credit cards, now have a better option to pay online that enables them to manage their finances while still being able to make the purchases they want. We’re thrilled that Rancourt will be the first to offer our newest payment option to their customers.”

“Klarna is a recognised leader in the payments industry, with a proven track record of delivering flexible options to merchants like us, who need to keep a competitive edge,” says Kyle Rancourt, VP of Brand Management at Rancourt & Co.

“By offering the Klarna option to our quality-focused customers, we are giving them the power to purchase our handmade goods with flexibility and without limiting their choices based on price.”
