### Payment methods

* Log in to your **Klarna Merchant Portal**.
* Go to **Settings → Payment Methods**.
* Enable the additional methods you want to offer (e.g., **Pay Later**, **Slice It**, **Direct Debit**, etc.).
* Save your changes. These methods will then appear automatically in your Klarna integration, depending on the shopper’s country and eligibility.

In case of troubles with adding payment method, please contact Klarna's support team directly.
