FAQ
You must be an Irish resident, over 18 years old and have a valid payment card to use Pay in 3. When Klarna say ‘valid payment card’, they mean the card must be in your name, and must not have expired. You should also make sure the card you use has enough money available to cover all the instalments.
Pay in 3 is a credit product. It’s Klarna’s decision whether or not they start a credit agreement with you.
With Pay in 3, you can pay for something you buy by dividing the cost into three equal instalments. At checkout, you’ll see an option to ‘Pay Later in 3 instalments’. When you choose this option, just enter your card details to complete your purchase.
There are no interest charges with Pay later in 3 instalments, and no fees when you follow your automatic payment schedule. If you are delayed in making a payment, Klarna may charge late fees. Any missed instalments, including any added late fees, will be rolled over to the next scheduled due date. The issuer of your card or your bank may charge interest or fees under your agreement with them. If you have any questions about those charges, contact your card issuer.
Yes, you are able to make payment early through the Klarna App by paying by card immediately. If a payment is made earlier, and the balance cleared Klarna will not continue charging your card.
By extending the due date, you postpone the payment date of your order for 10 days. Klarna do not charge you any fees for extending the due date.
Klarna accepts most cards except prepaid cards. Klarna may also not accept a card that’s due to expire in the near future. Klarna will let you know at checkout if your card hasn’t been accepted.
At the point of purchase Klarna will freeze the first of your three instalments on your card. This means you won’t be able to spend this money on anything else. Once there’s received confirmation that your items have been shipped, the first of your three payments will be taken from your card automatically using the frozen amount. You’ll be able to see this on your card statement. If your items are not shipped, they’ll unfreeze your money and you’ll be able to spend it again. This may take a few days depending on which bank you’re with.
The second payment will be taken 30 days after the first payment, and the last one 60 days after the first payment.
The dates these payments are due will be sent to you by email, and you’ll be able to check them in the Klarna app.
Sometimes PLT doesn’t charge you for your whole order all at once. We might do this if we ship your items at different times. If this happens, Klarna will make a new Pay in 3 plan for each part order they make. Each of these order parts will have its own due date, depending on when PLT confirms that part of your order. If you extend the due date for your payments at any stage in the process, additional fees may be payable.
WARNING: if you do not make your repayments Klarna may engage a debt collection agency to collect money owed from you. Not meeting repayments may also affect your ability to use Klarna in the future.
If your card is cancelled, you’ll still have to pay any money you owe as soon as Klarna ask you to. If your card details change between your purchase and your final payment, you can update them in the Klarna App
Your cancellation is subject to PLT’s cancellation policy, so you need to check the store’s website for information on their cancellation policy and instructions on how to cancel an order and return the good(s) if already received. https://www.prettylittlething.ie/returns-policy
If your next payment or due date for the cancelled order is approaching, you can pause billing by choosing that order in the Klarna App and click “Report a problem”.
Once PLT has confirmed the cancellation or return, Klarna will update your payments accordingly as well as refund any amounts due. Refund processing times to you may vary and can take up to 14 days depending on the consumer’s bank.
If you cancel your order, Klarna will cancel any outstanding payments and pay back any amounts already taken from your card. Klarna will do their best to pay you back as soon as they can.
If you want to return part of your order, Klarna will take the amount from your outstanding balance. It won’t count as a payment, so you’ll need to continue making your payments on the dates they’re due until your balance is paid in full.
Refunds for Pay in 3 are processed in different ways. It depends on the status of your payment schedule, how much you’ve paid and if PLT has processed a full or partial refund.
Full refund
If you’re due a full refund, Klarna will cancel any remaining payments and refund anything you’ve already paid to the card you used to make the payment.
Partial refund
If you’re due a partial refund that’s more than the remaining balance on your order, Klarna will deduct the amount from the outstanding balance first. They’ll then refund the difference to the card you used to pay off the purchase.
If the partial refund is less than the remaining balance on your order, Klarna will deduct the amount from the outstanding balance and spread the remaining balance evenly over the remaining payments.
You have the right to withdraw from this credit agreement without charge at any time. If you wish to withdraw from the credit agreement, you will need to repay the balance owed by card through the Klarna App.
If you wish to exercise your right of cancellation with the PLT, please see section 8 above.
If Klarna can’t take the first instalment from your card, they’ll let you know, and try again. If that's unsuccessful, Klarna will roll the missed payment over to the second instalment. If the second instalment is also unsuccessful, you’ll be given a few days to update your card details or make sure there’s enough money on your card. If Klarna can’t take the payment after additional attempts, they payment will roll over to the next and final instalment. If a payment still can’t be taken, Klarna will try to charge your card again, ask you to pay the outstanding amount directly and/or use a debt collection agency to collect the money.
Klarna will contact you if they roll over a payment to the next due date and after the last instalment when all your payments have failed.
Not paying your instalments on time might also mean you can’t use Klarna in the future.
If Klarna are unable to charge your selected payment method for the amount due on your due date, you’ll be sent a notification and provided with a two to seven business day slack period so that you can update your payment method or ensure enough funds are available on your selected card. If you update your card, Klarna may attempt to collect the late payment immediately. Otherwise, they’ll will attempt to charge your original card again after the two to seven-day period. It is important that you ensure enough funds are available to complete your payment on the due dates. If Klarna are not able to take the second instalment during the slack period, they’ll roll over the unpaid amount to the next and final instalment, including a late fee for the missed payment.
If you fail to make a payment by the end of the courtesy slack period you will be in default, and in addition to other rights they have, Klarna may charge you a late fee amounting to the following; i) three (3) EUR per instalment if the total order value is below 100 EUR, ii) five (5) EUR per instalment if the total order value is between 100.00- 200 EUR, iii) eight (8) EUR per instalment if the total order value equals 200 EUR or above, or the maximum amount permitted by applicable law if lower. If you fail to make your payments, you may be unable to use the service in the future. Klarna may continue to attempt to collect overdue and currently due payments on subsequent due dates. If they are unable to take the outstanding amount on the third instalment, they may invoice you the remaining amount for immediate payment or follow our debt collection procedures where you will have to pay all reasonable costs incurred by Klarna and/or the debt collection agency.
