Interesting! You spread the cost over 6 weeks, with no interest or fees if you pay on time.
For repayments, you can either make manual payments or schedule automatic payments through the Klarna app. To be eligible for this payment method, you must be 18 years or older, have a positive credit score with low debt, and have routing and account details to connect your Klarna account to your bank account.
At present, all Galaxy products available on Samsung.com (costing between $10 and $4000) are eligible for purchase with Klarna Pay in the US. If you miss, the missing payment will be added to the amount of the next scheduled payment, plus a late fee of up to 25% of your order value.
