GetLocals Partners with Klarna to Offer Flexible Payment Options for Eastern European Tours

GetLocals, Eastern Europe's private guided tour company, announced a new partnership with Klarna, the global digital bank and flexible payments provider. Beginning in mid-January, GetLocals customers will gain access to Klarna's flexible payment solutions. The collaboration underscores GetLocals' ongoing commitment to customer-centric innovation and its mission to deliver smarter ways to pay. Together with Klarna, the two companies are reimagining the travel booking experience to give passengers greater transparency, convenience, and control.

Stefan Hendrick, CEO of GetLocals, stated that by leveraging digital capabilities and partnering with Klarna, the company can now offer greater choice and flexibility in how customers pay for their experiences. Irina Enii, Co-Founder of GetLocals, emphasized that this partnership addresses the growing global demand for greater flexibility and control when booking travel experiences. With a single integration, GetLocals is now bringing Klarna to travelers across 15 countries, providing a smoother, smarter booking experience that fits contemporary payment preferences.

At checkout, GetLocals customers can select from Klarna's range of payment options, including Pay in Full, Pay in 30 Days, Pay in 3 interest-free instalments, and Financing with monthly payments. This partnership ensures GetLocals can cater to the rising demand for unique experiences, backed by a digital payment system that aligns with its intuitive online platform. This development is particularly significant for younger travelers, who often prefer digital booking options and may face cash constraints. According to industry data, 51% of those booking cultural, historic, and local tour experiences last year were either Gen Z or Millennials. With features like flexible payment methods and options to reserve now and pay later, GetLocals is positioned to meet the needs of this growing segment of digital-native travelers. The company's offerings include diverse Eastern European experiences, such as those detailed on Moldova-Tours.com, which highlight the region's rich cultural and historical attractions.
