Loans for small things are high risk and aren’t worth it for a bank in a normal economy.
People can’t afford the basics and have to lay-away like in the great depression. Klarna is the canary in the mine.
Klarna is for people who want to buy something but don’t have enough money right now. It’s helpful to them because it’s interest-free so they can pay off little items over the course of several months without acquiring interest.
But if you have enough money to buy something & pay in full, just do that. No need to drag it out for months if you’ve got plenty of money in the bank.
Klarna? Why is that there?

It was a big thing I think it was last year that people were relying on klarna for their food shopping.
