These payments will be automatically withdrawn from the debit/credit card you have on file with Klarna every 2 weeks until the full order amount has been paid. In Klarna app, you’ll also have the option to pay off a single installment or even the entire balance earlier if preferred.

How secure is Pay now with online banking and how reputable is it?
When it comes to money security counts above all else. That’s why we designed Pay now with online banking to be one of the safest online payment systems possible. The online transfer is made using the established online banking login process combined with a confirmation code (TAN) that offers a high degree of protection from misuse as it can be used only once and then immediately becomes invalid. Entering your online banking login details, such as your PIN and the TAN, takes place exclusively in the secure payment form of Sofort GmbH and not on the merchant’s website. This ensures that the merchant does not gain access to sensitive information (such as PIN and TAN). The transfer of data occurs only via connections secured with up to AES 256 bits. Sofort GmbH itself does not store any sensitive information (such as PIN and TAN), but carries out the transaction solely as a technical service provider. The sensitive details (such as PIN and TAN) are never visible to third parties, including Klarna.
Are my sensitive online banking login details such as PIN and TAN stored by Sofort GmbH?
No! PIN and TAN are not stored and are never visible to third parties, including Klarna. This is no false promise, because Klarna places our own compliance with data privacy regulations under close scrutiny.
Does the Gelareh Designs have access to my account or sensitive information?
Certainly not! At no time does the merchant have access to your sensitive online banking details (such as PIN and TAN), which you enter into the encrypted payment form. Under no circumstances does the merchant have access to your account.
Does Klarna have access to my account or sensitive information?
In order to carry out the transaction, Klarna necessarily requires one-time access to your account. In this respect, Klarna functions as a technical service provider that transmits to your bank the information you put into the secure payment form via an encrypted connection. The Pay now system is a multi-banking software tool, used to operate your online banking.
Are my purchases covered by Klarna’s Buyer’s Protection?
Yes. Klarna’s Buyer Protection covers all online purchases that you make as a consumer when you use Klarna and it is explicitly mentioned on the merchant’s payment methods selection page in its online shop. In the unlikely event that there is a problem with your purchase, Klarna’s Buyer Protection Policy (“Policy”) ensures that you don’t have to pay – or get your money back. The aim of Klarna’s Policy is to let you feel at ease when you shop in one of its partner e-stores. If your goods are not delivered or if there is something wrong with them, Klarna will help you resolve the issue. When you pay with Klarna, you can also trust that Klarna processes your personal data at the highest security level (read more in the section “Data Protection”).
