Klarna Adds Free Financial Health Checks via Money Wellness Deal

Sebrina McCullough, director of external relations at Money Wellness, said the company aims to help people feel confident and in control of their money. "We're delighted to partner with Klarna to make free, financial support easily accessible to customers and help more people take positive steps towards long-term financial wellbeing," McCullough said.

Abby Vickers, head of financial services U.K. at Klarna, said the Money MOT offers practical, personalized tips to people whose finances are in great shape and those who could use some help. "We're proud to bring the experts at Money Wellness right into the Klarna app, so a bit of help is always just a tap away," Vickers said.

The partnership is the latest push by Klarna into everyday spending. In May, the company reported that deposits, debit usage and point-of-sale financing drove first-quarter growth.

PYMNTS Intelligence research has found that exposure to financial education correlates with better financial outcomes, and that millennial and Gen Z consumers actively want to improve their financial literacy.
