Boots has rolled out Klarna’s buy now pay later offering across its UK and Ireland online sites and mobile app.

In a LinkedIn post, Andrew Wood, Group Lead Solutions & Delivery UK, Ireland, BeNeFra and Southern Europe at Klarna, said: “Delighted to share that Klarna is now available on Boots.com and Boots.ie, plus the Boots app in the UK and Ireland.”

“It's been such a pleasure to work with the amazing team at Boots UK and my wonderful colleagues at Klarna on this exciting partnership.”

The retailer previously made Klarna’s BNPL service available in over 2,000 stores across the UK, and also for Boots Opticians.

Customers can spread the cost of their purchase into three interest free instalments with Pay in 3. 

The first payment is made at point of purchase, with remaining instalments scheduled automatically every 30 days.

Or they can pay for their order anytime within 30 days of your purchase, interest free.

Ocula Boost

In November of last year, we reported that Boots UK was deploying Ocula Technologies’ Ocula Boost solution.

The AI platform addresses abandoned shopping carts by analysing sites to: identify actions to improve the customer experience, accessibility and performance; rank insights based on predicted value and effort; and ensure teams focus on the right areas.

In a LinkedIn post, Ocula Technologies said: “We could not be happier to be working with Boots UK, the UK’s leading health & beauty retailer.”

It added: “Ocula Boost will be aiming to further contribute to their incredible success: Boots.com recently posted a 28.9% sales increase over quarter and it was the retailer’s tenth consecutive quarter of market share growth.”

"Ocula Boost is about ensuring the Boots.com experience continues to be best in class and relevant for our customers. The AI capabilities it provides ensure we are making use of the latest technologies to stay ahead,” commented Paula Bobbett, Chief Digital Officer at Boots.
