Troubleshooting

How to fix Klarna not working

Klarna is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:

Your browser tries to reach klarna.com over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.

  1. Recheck declined Klarna pay later attempt

    Check Payments for status. You clear soft declines when you toggle Wi-Fi off in Settings > Wi-Fi and place the order again in the app with your bank card.

  2. Update the Klarna app build

    Open App Store or Play Store to update. You stop login loops and blank Pay in 4 screens when you tap Update on the Klarna listing and reopen the app to load the new build.

  3. Clear Klarna cache on Android

    Go to Settings for a fix. You remove stuck verification screens and ghost balances when you open Settings > Apps > Klarna > Storage > Clear Cache and sign back in to the app.

  4. Delete and reinstall for one-time card errors

    Start fresh with reinstall. You fix dead one-time cards and failed bank links when you go to Settings > General > iPhone Storage > Klarna > Delete App and sign in fresh to link your bank again.

While Klarna is down: what to use instead

  • Debit or credit card Use a debit or credit card at checkout when the pay later option keeps failing.
  • PayPal PayPal helps if the shop lists it at checkout and you want buyer protection, though you pay the full amount at once and lose the installment plan.
  • Afterpay Afterpay splits a purchase into installments at some retailers, so look for it beside the card icons if you need a payment plan.
  • Desktop website Try the desktop website when the app will not open, because order history and returns sometimes load in a browser.
Your device

Fix Klarna on Windows, Mac, Android and iPhone

Klarna on Windows

Fix
Clear your browser's cache and cookies, or disable ad-blockers that might interfere with the Klarna checkout widget. If the issue persists, try accessing Klarna using a different web browser or an Incognito window.
Check
Try loading the Klarna login page in your browser. If you get a connection timeout or server error while other websites load normally, Klarna's web services are likely down.
Command Prompt
ping klarna.comTest whether Klarna's servers reply
nslookup klarna.comCheck that Klarna's DNS resolves
tracert klarna.comTrace where the connection drops
ipconfig /flushdnsClear the DNS cache, then reload

Klarna on Mac

Fix
Disable Safari Content Blockers or Chrome extensions that may block the Klarna payment gateway. Clearing your browser's website data can also resolve loading issues on macOS.
Check
Check if the Klarna website displays a network error or fails to load across multiple browsers on your Mac. You can also check the official Klarna status page to see if their web platform is experiencing issues.
Terminal
ping -c 4 klarna.comTest whether Klarna's servers reply
nslookup klarna.comCheck that Klarna's DNS resolves
traceroute klarna.comTrace where the connection drops
sudo dscacheutil -flushcache; sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponderFlush the macOS DNS cache, then reload

Klarna on Android

Fix
Go to your device settings, select the Klarna app, and clear its cache and data. You should also check the Google Play Store to ensure you are running the latest version of the app.
Check
Open the Klarna app to see if it gets stuck on the loading screen or displays a network connection error when your Wi-Fi is active. If other apps work fine, the Klarna service or app servers may be offline.

Klarna on iPhone and iPad

Fix
Update the Klarna app from the App Store, or delete and reinstall it to clear corrupted temporary files. Ensure that any active VPNs on your iPhone or iPad are disabled, as they can block financial services.
Check
See if the Klarna app fails to open or throws communication errors during checkout while your internet connection is stable. You can also check the App Store reviews sorted by 'Most Recent' to see if other iOS users are reporting failures.
About

What happens when Klarna goes down

Klarna splits shop payments. If you check out with pay in 4 or pay in 30 days, an outage stops you from finishing purchase or opening your repayment plan.

Checkout tends to fail before anything else does. When you pay with it at a store, the payment window hangs or declines you even with funds available, while the app still lets you browse past orders. Logins loop for you. Issues stay partial because one country or retailer checkout breaks while repayments and the one-time card keep working for you.

Questions

Klarna FAQ

Is Klarna down right now?

The status at the top of this page shows whether user problem reports for the service are above their usual level, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. See official status page. You can test your side by switching from Wi-Fi to mobile data and reopening checkout, since a true outage fails on both connections for you.

Why was my Pay in 4 purchase declined at checkout?

You did nothing wrong. The service declines Pay in 4 when the store limit or a failed ID check trips its risk rules, even if your bank balance looks fine. You can lower the total and clear any past-due amount before you try checkout again.

How do I stop the app from freezing on verification or logging me out?

Force-close the app and install any pending update, since old builds stall on the ID and bank verification screens. Then try login again. You get kicked out when your session expires or your phone blocks camera and SMS codes, so allow those permissions before you sign back in.

What should I do when I can't create a one-time card?

If the one-time card button spins or vanishes at checkout, your card slot closed because the purchase amount or store category falls outside approval. Try a smaller total. You can delete the old expired card in the app and generate a fresh one, which clears most stuck screens.

Where is my refund when the app still shows I owe money?

Give the ledger a day to catch up after you pay, because refunds post first with the store before they show as paid in the app. Check the Purchases tab. You should match the store receipt to the app timeline, then ask the help centre if amounts still clash.

How we track Klarna

The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for Klarna, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for Klarna, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.

When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. This is separate from Klarna's official status page: user reports tend to show a problem early, while the official page confirms the cause. If the two disagree, check both.
