Klarna has announced a partnership with Qatar Airways.

Travellers booking flights with Qatar Airways can now use Klarna’s flexible payment options at checkout, giving them the choice to pay in full, pay later, split the cost into three interest-free instalments, or finance their booking over time.

The partnership is enabled through Klarna’s integration with Worldpay and will be rolled out across 17 European markets, including the UK, Germany, France, the Netherlands, Spain, Italy, Portugal, Ireland, Belgium, Austria, Switzerland, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Denmark, Poland and the Czech Republic.

David Sykes, Chief Commercial Officer at Klarna, said:

“With a single integration, Qatar Airways is now bringing Klarna to millions of travellers across 17 countries, providing a smoother, smarter booking experience that fits the way people prefer to pay today.”

Christophe Guittard, Senior Vice President of Digital Commercial at Qatar Airways, said:

“By partnering with Klarna, we’re making the Qatar Airways booking journey more convenient, giving our customers greater confidence at the point of payment.”

Klarna’s payment options available at checkout include the ability to pay the total amount upfront, pay within 30 days, split the cost into three interest-free instalments, or spread the cost through monthly financing.

These choices aim to give travellers greater flexibility in managing their travel expenses, allowing them to plan and pay in a way that best suits their needs.
