Klarna is now live on Fidesmo Pay - across Europe and the United States
Klarna cardholders across Europe and the US can now add their card to a growing range of devices and pay with a tap, anywhere contactless payments are accepted. More markets and card programs are rolling out over the coming months, extending our reach even further. Mattias Eld, CEO and Co-founder of Fidesmo, puts it: Payments are becoming invisible, embedded in the devices people already wear and carry. Klarna is one of the most forward-thinking financial brands in the world, and this is exactly the kind of partnership that signals where the industry is heading.
But this launch is about more than one partnership. It marks a significant expansion of Fidesmo Pay's global market presence and reinforces what Fidesmo has been telling OEMs from day one: Contactless payments no longer have to be a complex, time-consuming journey. Fidesmo Pay makes it seamless, scalable, and fast to market, regardless of form factor. Whether the device is a smartwatch, a ring, a wristband, or something altogether new, we deliver.
What makes this go-live particularly meaningful is what it represents for the end consumer. Ana De La Fuente, Product Manager for Fidesmo Pay, has been working with Klarna to make this happen: "When we talk about going live with Klarna, we're not talking about a technical integration; we're talking about giving consumers the right experience at the moment they want to pay. That has always been the goal." Getting Klarna live has been a milestone Fidesmo has worked towards for a long time. Seeing it in users' hands is a reminder of why the work matters.
