Luxury retailer Harrods has announced a new partnership with Klarna, a global retail bank, in a bid to offer customers more “flexible” and “convenient” payment options.
Harrods UK will allow shoppers to use Klarna’s Pay in three payment options for beauty purchases in Harrods Beauty Hall, as well as across H beauty stores in Essex (Lakeside) and Milton Keynes (centre:mk).
According to the retailer, further Harrods departments are set to roll out Klarna’s payment options in the coming months.
Customers shopping the store via Harrods.com in the UK will also be able to split their payments via Pay in 3, whilst US customers can use Pay in 4 when purchasing goods online.
Harrods said in Germany, Austria and Switzerland, online customers will be able to use Klarna’s Pay later feature when shopping.
Alex Unitt, partnerships director at Harrods, said: “We’re excited to bring Klarna to our iconic beauty halls in Knightsbridge, as well as H beauty, our beauty emporiums in Essex and Milton Keynes, and across Harrods.com.
“Klarna’s market-leading payments products will enable us to continue supporting existing customers’ payment needs, as well as enabling a greater breadth of customers to access Harrods’ unrivalled selection of international brands and products.”
Luke Griffiths, chief commercial officer at Klarna, added: “Harrods is one of the most recognisable brands across the globe with a footprint and heritage that is unrivalled within the luxury retail space. We are excited to bring our payment products to Harrods customers across Europe and the US, offering them the option to buy goods how and when they want.”
