By embedding resale capabilities directly into the Klarna app and connecting it to eBay’s global marketplace, eligible purchases made with Klarna can be listed on eBay in just a few taps. Product images, descriptions, and key details are automatically pre-filled using Klarna’s purchase data, eliminating manual listing creation and making resale a natural extension of the shopping journey.
The expansion follows strong adoption in the U.S. and UK, where Klarna users have created more than one million eBay listings directly through the Klarna app since the feature launched in December 2024. Engagement has been particularly strong across key resale categories including automotive parts, accessories, and fashion, underscoring growing consumer demand for seamless, more accessible circular commerce.
“Resale is no longer a niche behavior – it’s becoming a core part of how people shop and manage their money,” said David Sykes, Chief Commercial Officer at Klarna. “Whether it’s reselling a jacket you bought last season or a phone you’ve upgraded, embedding resale directly into the payments experience and connecting it to eBay’s global marketplace turns past purchases into future value. Expanding to six new markets reflects strong consumer adoption and our belief that circular commerce should be effortless, scalable, and built into everyday purchases.”
The rollout comes as the pre-loved fashion market continues to grow, with nearly nine in ten consumers saying that they plan to maintain or increase their secondhand spending, according to eBay’s Recommerce Report. By integrating resale directly into the payments experience, Klarna is expanding its role from facilitating transactions to powering the full commerce lifecycle, from purchase to resale.
“Resale is a natural extension of how people buy and sell ,” said Avritti Khandurie Mittal, VP of Product, eBay Services. “By connecting Klarna’s resell experience directly to eBay’s global marketplace, we’re helping high quality pre-loved items find new homes faster. This expansion reflects how eBay continues to lead recommerce globally – unlocking value for consumers, extending product lifecycles, and making circular commerce part of everyday buying and selling at global sale.”
