Klarna and Zoom have launched flexible payment options for Zoom Workplace subscriptions to make digital collaboration more accessible.
A collaboration between the fintech provider Klarna and a popular video communications platform Zoom enables Zoom Workplace subscribers across 16 markets, including the U.S. and parts of Europe, to access Zoom’s premium services through Klarna’s flexible “Pay Now” and “Pay Later” options.
Customers in 16 countries (US, UK, Sweden, Germany, Finland, Denmark, Netherlands, Austria, Belgium, France, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Portugal, Spain, and Poland) can now use Klarna to collaborate and stay connected within their global teams more affordably and conveniently.
Pay Now, the instant payment feature that allows a client to pay immediately and in full, is already available in all countries, while Pay Later instalment options have rolled out in the US, Sweden, and Germany. Additional features and market expansions are scheduled for 2025.
The partnership aligns with Klarna’s vision to provide seamless payment options globally. The cooperation also expands both platforms’ ecosystems through increased user acquisition and reach.
Zoom provides video conferencing, online meetings, chat, and collaboration features. The AI-powered platform became especially popular during the pandemic when remote work increased drastically. It gained widespread use due to its user-friendly interface and reliability, especially in virtual meetings for work, education, and social gatherings.
Zoom offers both free and subscription-based plans, catering to individual, educational, and enterprise needs. With the addition of Klarna to the platform’s checkout, the firm now offers greater financial flexibility to its customers, either removing the burden of upfront costs or enabling instant payments and faster access to services.
