Klarna is not currently supported by Lightspeed Payments. To use Klarna, you'll need to create and connect an account with a compatible third-party payment processor.
- If you're an existing Klarna merchant: Ensure you've signed an updated version of your Klarna contract that includes in-store service. Reach out to your Klarna representative to start this simple process.
- If you're new to Retail POS and an existing Klarna merchant: Ensure you wait until your in-store MID has been created.
Retail POS customers in the United Kingdom, United States, Australia, and New Zealand can offer Klarna's Pay in 3 payment method in your physical store. Follow the steps below to connect your Klarna merchant account with your Retail POS store.
