Klarna has launched a ‘Consumer Council’ allowing consumers to meet-up and share  thoughts on their experiences using Klarna.

The aim of the council is to provide the smoothest and smartest experience when shopping and paying.

Sebastian Siemiatkowski, Klarna co-founder and CEO, said: “At Klarna, we have an amazingly engaged consumer community, which we speak and listen to daily to understand their experiences first-hand. We’re interested in the good parts, but more importantly we’re interested in the areas where we clearly have room for improvement.

“We’re always looking for new ways to support and build Klarna with our community and to solve consumer pain points we may not have thought of ourselves. Gathering direct feedback is extremely important to us and a vital part in meeting consumers’ needs and ultimately, to provide the best end-to-end shopping experience.”

The meet-ups

The first ‘Consumer Council’ meet-ups will take place in London on March 10 and Stockholm on March 16. Following this, meet-ups in Manchester, Berlin and New York will take place in the spring.

Additionally, each meet-up will have a specific theme tailored to the local market. The objective is to involve consumers in Klarna’s goal to become the world’s smoothest shopping experience.
