Klarna is a Swedish fintech company founded in 2015 and headquartered in Stockholm, Sweden. It provides online payment solutions for customers and merchants. The company is a “buy now, pay later” service provider.
According to reports, Klarna has announced plans to lay off about 2,000 employees as part of a global restructuring in the coming years due to its investments in artificial intelligence.
