This can be your own configuration or the Default option that is always available. You can find more information about payment method configurations in the Stripe DOCS. - Select Turn on for the Klarna payment method.
- A confirmation dialog pops up, informing you under which terms you are allowed to offer Klarna as a payment method. Confirm it to use Klarna for your business. If the terms don't apply to your business, you cannot offer Klarna as a payment method.
