Buy Now Pay Later in Microsoft Edge

Microsoft EdgeBrowser feature2023

300M monthly users

The payment menu Microsoft Edge opens on a card number field at checkout, offering buy now, pay later in four interest-free payments.
Microsoft Edge’s checkout payment menu with buy now, pay later, from Microsoft’s announcement.

Problem, constraints and approach

Microsoft and Klarna wanted shoppers to split a purchase into four interest-free payments right at checkout, built into the Edge browser itself. The hard part was trust: the feature issues new Visa cards, so card details had to travel from Klarna to Microsoft without ever being exposed. I connected the browser’s front end to Klarna’s payment system to issue the cards, and sent the card details to Microsoft with end-to-end encryption.

What I built

  • Managed the integration of Klarna’s Buy Now Pay Later into the core of the Microsoft Edge browser, a Klarna × Microsoft collaboration.
  • Connected the front end to Klarna’s payment system to issue new Visa cards.
  • Sent the card details to Microsoft securely, with end-to-end encryption.
