Klarna has increasingly focused on and invested in developing Klarna as a payment method, which has led to a decreased focus on innovation related to the Checkout platform. Additionally, Klarna has deepened its partnerships with other Payment Service Providers (PSPs), and no longer sees the need to own and maintain the infrastructure for Checkout themselves.
