Klarna CEO wants to turn the platform into a ‘super app’ with AI

Key Points

Klarna CEO Sebastian Siemiatkowski wants to make the platform more of an all-encompassing financial “super app” that’s personalized and can offer non-financial services.

On Wednesday, Klarna is set to announce the launch of mobile phone plans in the U.S. via a partnership with telecom services startup Gigs.
