Lots of times when I’ve been buying things in e-shops I’ve been offered to pay using Klarna as a payment broker.

But doing so has always been more confusing for me compared to “regular” payments with a credit card anywhere else, and has on overall been a negative experience for me.

I really don’t understand why anyone would prefer to use them at all.

What am I missing? Can anyone help me understand?

I think the main selling point is being able to buy clothes and return the ones that don't fit without having to pay for the lot first, and get a refund later.

The same can be applied to a credit card though so it's not a strong argument
