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?

In Sweden you can use them to buy with an invoice which is a lot quicker than entering your credit card. That is probably the main selling point.

Sellers get paid immediately and they take care of making sure the customer pays.
