Klarna and Bolt announced a partnership that integrates Klarna's payment options into Bolt's systems, enabling merchants to offer flexible financing solutions directly at checkout. This will provide a seamless buy-now-pay-later experience, first in the U.S. and later globally. Stakeholders from both companies emphasized that this collaboration is about redefining customer engagement rather than just adding another payment option. This partnership comes as Bolt seeks to recover from recent struggles and legal issues, signaling a strategic shift towards improving its market position and customer loyalty.
