What happened with Klarna at Lululemon?
Premium athletic apparel brand Lululemon, best known for yoga-inspired leggings and gym wear, has partnered with buy now, pay later company Klarna across its UK store network. According to the Oxford Mail, the flexible payment service has launched in the brand’s 21 UK stores.
One of those stores sits inside Bicester Village, the luxury designer outlet that opened in 2017. The partnership puts Klarna checkout into a high-profile premium shopping setting. For readers tracking luxury destinations and lifestyle hubs, that outlet sits alongside coverage in our Luxury Real Estate & Dream Homes category.
How do shoppers use Klarna in store?
Customers paying in person can use Klarna by scanning a QR code at checkout. They then finish the transaction through the Klarna app on their phone.
The payment option lets shoppers pay in interest-free instalments or delay payment for 30 days. They do not need a separate card to complete the purchase with Klarna.
Why is the in-store Klarna launch significant?
Klarna was already available on Lululemon’s website for more than five years. Bringing the same flexible checkout into physical stores closes a gap between online and in-person shopping for the brand’s UK customers who want instalment-style payments off the web.
The in-store rollout is part of Klarna’s broader strategy to expand its presence in physical retail, extending buy now, pay later beyond e-commerce into brick-and-mortar fashion and athletic apparel stores.
Where can UK customers access Klarna with Lululemon?
Klarna payments are available across Lululemon’s full UK store footprint of 21 locations, including Bicester Village. Online shoppers who already used Klarna on the brand’s website can now apply similar flexible payment choices when they buy in person at those stores.
