**STEP 2 - Apply to Offers**

If Klarna is your only gateway option, assign the gateway to your campaign offers. Otherwise, skip this step and use the forceMerchantId option in the next step.

**STEP 3 - Apply to Checkout Page**

A checkout page should be secure HTTPS. A non-secured call to the Klarna gateway will be rejected.

Pass paySource=PREPAID and prepaidType=KLARNA on the import order API call from your checkout page. Do not pass any other card information.

Pass salesUrl = the checkout page url. Klarna requires the checkout page url be included with the order.

One option is to use hidden input fields on the page

```
<input type="hidden" name='paySource' value="PREPAID">
<input type='hidden' name='prepaidType' value='KLARNA'>
```

If your standard credit card gateways are applied to your offers, use the **forceMerchantId** parameter in the Import Order API call. Note that this will only work for one time sales, it will not work with recurring transactions.

For more info on the Import Order API call, please refer to our [API Documentation.](https://apidocs.checkoutchamp.com/?version=latest)

**STEP 4 - Redirect**

Follow standard 3Ds instructions to redirect the consumer to Klarna

[Direct API 3DS Instructions](/crm/gateway-setup/direct-api-3ds-instructions.md)

**STEP 5 - Upsells**

Use standard upsell functionality. If a 2-click upsell is required by Klarna then be sure to implement Step 4 on upsell pages.
