Popular payment types in Sweden

Sweden is home to Klarna, the pioneer of the buy now pay later model that appeals to consumers who want flexible payment options. Almost 30% of all online retail purchases are done with Klarna. Digital wallets such as PayPal, Google Pay, Apple Pay, Samsung Pay and Masterpass are also popular. Digital wallets account for one fifth of all online purchases in Sweden. Cards are also popular, especially Visa and MasterCard. Bank transfers are also worth considering, accounting for 10% of the market.

The Swedish Parliament voted new laws that require online merchants and checkout providers to present customers with debit payment options before credit options as a way to protect consumers from excessive credit purchases. Adding to this, in 2019, Pay.UK launched the Request to Pay service, and in May 2020, they launched the Request to Pay Framework-the message standards, rules, and terms and conditions for the development of these services.

Throughout Europe, payment methods based on the banking rails are becoming more dominant, buy-now, pay-later solutions are on the rise, and digital wallets are becoming more widely accepted. Europe holds a lot of opportunity: the ecommerce market value is said to be worth EUR 717 billion at the end of 2020 (with a 12.7% increase since 2019).
