UK ecommerce provider EKM partners with Klarna

Standard

EKM, the largest hosted ecommerce provider in the UK, has announced it is partnering with Swedish payments company Klarna. Starting today, all new merchants who sign up for a store with EKM will be offered a store and payment solution powered by EKM and Klarna. The new store will have Klarna’s checkout pre-installed and ready to go.

EKM and Klarna announced the news today in a press release, stating they both invested heavily in making sure that a merchant instantly can start to sell. “Customers can use familiar payment methods, or benefit from Klarna’s ‘pay after delivery’ option”, the companies explain. “Mobile shoppers can experience true one-click purchases across all stores using Klarna, while merchants get seamless payment and increased conversation online and on mobile devices.”

According to Steven Hickey, head of business development at EKM, businesses of any size can set up their ecommerce website almost immediately in a single process, with “a payment system that rivals the biggest names in retail”.
