Groupe Dynamite has switched on Klarna as an in-store payment option in more than 300 GARAGE and DYNAMITE shops in Canada, the United States and the United Kingdom.
What changed
Klarna acceptance at the two fashion chains is no longer online-only. Shoppers at the till scan a QR code with their phone, which hands the transaction to the Klarna app, where they choose to pay the whole amount or split an eligible basket into interest-free instalments. The flow mirrors the retailer's existing online Klarna checkout, so the same payment choice now runs across both channels. The rollout covers over 300 Groupe Dynamite locations across the three markets.
What merchants must do
Retailers running Klarna online should ask whether the QR-to-app pattern fits their store hardware, since it needs no new terminal but does need till staff to hand the customer to their own phone. Check how in-store Klarna baskets are refunded and reconciled against card takings before enabling it at scale.
