Can Klarna be integrated with Webflow Ecommerce using Stripe's Public Beta?
- Klarna can't be used directly in Webflow's native checkout, but can be integrated via Stripe’s Checkout or third-party tools like Memberstack, Snipcart, or Foxy.io.
- Requires setting up Stripe's Payment Methods API (enable Klarna), building a custom external checkout flow, and embedding redirection logic in Webflow.
Yes, Klarna can be integrated with Webflow Ecommerce using Stripe’s Public Beta, but it requires specific setup steps beyond Webflow’s default options.
1. Understand Webflow’s Current Checkout Limitations
- Webflow Ecommerce natively supports Stripe, PayPal, and Apple Pay/Google Pay (via Stripe).
- Klarna is not a native payment option within Webflow's default checkout UI.
- However, Klarna can be accessed through Stripe’s Payment Methods API, which Webflow does not expose directly through its standard checkout.
2. Clarify Stripe’s Klarna Support
- Stripe supports Klarna through its Payment Element or Checkout Sessions.
- Integration of Klarna via Stripe is part of their Public Beta and supports pay-later options across multiple countries.
- To activate Klarna in your Stripe account, go to Settings > Payment Methods, then enable Klarna.
3. Integration Options for Webflow
Since Webflow doesn’t yet support Klarna directly:
Option 1: Use Stripe Checkout externally
Build a custom Stripe Checkout integration hosted outside Webflow (using a custom backend).
After a user clicks “Buy” on Webflow, redirect them to a Stripe Checkout session that includes Klarna.
Use Webflow’s embed code components or custom JavaScript for redirection.
Option 2: Use Memberstack + Custom Payment Flow
Use Memberstack (or similar tools) to lock digital products or gated content, then manage checkout externally using Stripe.
This allows full control over payment methods including Klarna.
Option 3: Use Snipcart or Foxy.io
These third-party cart services integrate with Webflow and allow more flexibility in checkout options.
Klarna can be partially integrated in these platforms if paired with Stripe and custom checkout logic.
4. Important Limitations
- No full native support from Webflow for Klarna via Stripe.
- Requires dev effort to implement external checkout flows or third-party integrations.
- You’ll lose native Ecommerce analytics, auto inventory management, and Webflow order fulfillment tools when bypassing the standard process.
Summary
Webflow does not support Klarna directly through its native ecommerce checkout, even with Stripe’s public beta. To use Klarna, you must build an external checkout using Stripe Checkout or third-party services that allow Klarna via Stripe.
