This programme has also grown to more than 1.8 million members since launching in June 2020. To date, Vibe members have claimed nearly $2.8 million in gift cards to use at their favourite stores, including Amazon, Sephora, H&M, and Target. Collections also continues to be one of the Klarna app’s most popular features, with US users adding more than eight million items to their Collections to date.

As people browse and buy across channels, the Klarna app allows them to discover new products and brands while having the ability to shop both in-store and online with interest-free payment options. In the year ahead, we will continue to expand our US merchant base, offering greater opportunities for customer acquisition and engagement,” David Sykes, head of North America at Klarna said.
