Fancy a new iPhone? Buy your next smartphone the smartest way possible with Klarna

'Tis the season for tech upgrades! With new smartwatches and smartphones coming out left-right-centre from Apple, Google and more, it's easy to feel overwhelmed, even if you saved enough money to pay for some of the new gadgets you are planning on buying. With Klarna, you can shop for your next gadget online the smart way this winter.

You might have heard of Klarna as people's go-to option for paying for their new clothes online; however, using Klarna's clever system for tech purchases makes even more sense than paying for T-shirts. Klarna won't pay for you, but it can help you manage your payments better by splitting your gadget purchases into three interest-free monthly payments.* And that's just one of the reasons why you should use Klarna for your next tech bargain buy.

As always, we recommend being sensible when buying anything online, and you certainly shouldn't spend more because more tech deals are available this time of the year. But if you've been eyeballing a new pair of headphones or a gaming monitor and find a good deal on them, Klarna can help spread the cost of payment into three manageable chunks.

Here are three reasons you should use Klarna for your next gadget shop.

Spread the cost of your next tech purchase

The biggest appeal of Klarna is its core offering: Pay in 3. It allows you to split your purchases into three interest-free monthly payments. Klarna pays for your gadgets at the time of the purchase, and you will pay the original cost of the item over three payments.

The first payment is made at the point of purchase, with the remaining payments scheduled automatically every 30 days. Your payments are automatically withdrawn from your connected card or bank account according to the agreed payment schedule, but you can make early payments anytime you wish. Klarna also offers options to Pay Now and Pay in 30 days, providing even more flexibility to pay for your new tech gear.

The Klarna app has come a long way since the olden days. The primary functionality is still there – keeping track of your purchases and payments – but now you can also enjoy a number of additional features allowing tech lovers (a.k.a. you) to find deals on products they want by comparing prices seamlessly in the app across thousands of retailers.

The process couldn’t be easier. Klarna does the legwork for you by comparing prices, user ratings, and shipping options to find a suitable offer for you. And when you shop in the Klarna app, discount codes will be automatically applied at checkout! Best of all, since you’re initiating the buy in the Klarna app, you can choose the payment option best suited for you from Pay Now, Pay in 30 Days or Pay in 3, and it will be ready for you when you hit that green button to complete the purchase.

Get notified of price drops

As well as being able to compare prices in the Klarna app, you can also save certain products, and when you do, you’ll get Price Drop Notifications when products go on sale, so you can buy them at the best time. We recommend setting this up as soon as possible so when the price drops start happening, you’ll be the first to know.

Setting alerts also helps you reduce unnecessary costs because you can select the products you really want to buy instead of idly scrolling through Amazon ‘looking for a good deal’, which usually results in purchasing items you don’t need. Klarna’s Price Drop Notifications will help you focus on the tech gadgets you need, not the ones you just stumbled upon.
