Klarna (NYSE: KLAR) has applied to the Utah Department of Financial Institutions and the FDIC to establish Klarna Bank USA, a Utah‑chartered industrial bank. Klarna has operated as a licensed bank in Europe since 2017 and currently serves U.S. customers via partner banks.
Since 2019, Klarna has provided Americans with access to over $91.3 billion in credit, which it estimates has saved them more than $5.1 billion in interest versus revolving credit card debt. About 30 million Americans use Klarna annually, alongside hundreds of thousands of merchants.
If approved, Klarna Bank USA would be a wholly owned subsidiary with its own board, governance, and controls, bringing payments, savings, credit, and merchant services in‑house. Gary Harding, former CEO of Milestone Bank and Prime Alliance Bank, has been selected as President and CEO of Klarna Bank USA.

Any award remains subject to appeal and would be reduced by sharing arrangements and taxes, and should not be viewed as a profit forecast.
