Klarna
Klarna Bank AB is a Swedish licensed bank and payments network serving 150M+ consumers and 600k+ merchants with buy-now-pay-later, financing, cards, banking and a shopping app. For developers Klarna publishes a merchant API estate covering payment sessions and authorization (Klarna Payments), hosted checkout (Klarna Checkout and the Hosted Payment Page), post-purchase order management (capture, refund, cancel, extend due date), customer tokens for recurring purchases, settlement payouts and transaction reporting, the Merchant Card Service, and a PSD2 XS2A open-banking API for licensed TPPs. Authentication is HTTP Basic with a Klarna-issued API key; Sign in with Klarna adds a full OAuth 2.0 / OpenID Connect consumer-identity surface. Klarna publishes rate limits, a six-month deprecation policy, public service-level objectives, a self-serve playground with market-specific sample data, and an llms.txt — but no fetchable OpenAPI, no server-side SDK in any language, and no MCP server.
Klarna publishes 22 API contracts indexed on the APIs.io network, including Push Notifications, Captures API, Checkout API, and 19 more. Tagged areas include Fintech, Buy Now Pay Later, Payments, Cards, and Shopping.
The Klarna catalog on APIs.io includes 1 event-driven AsyncAPI specification, 1 JSON-LD context, and 3 Spectral governance rulesets.
Klarna’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, support, engineering blog, pricing, signup flow, and 44 more developer resources.

Kin Score
Markets this provider is in provisional
The Kin Score Market layer reads a provider inside its market: its position, and how deep its integrations go. Depth is only comparable within a position. Provisional and unweighted: not part of the Kin Score or agent readiness.
| Market | Position | Depth | Registered MCP server | Declares compatibility |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Payments | mixed | 52.6 | - | - |
| Commerce Platform Ecosystems (Shopify, WooCommerce, Stripe Apps) | mixed | 52.6 | - | - |
Registered MCP server and declares compatibility are report only — not weighted. Undeclared means we found nothing we can read, so there is no number: we never infer integrations.
