(Reuters) - Swedish payments firm Klarna, which is gearing up for a listing on the New York Stock Exchange, said on Thursday it has entered a payments partnership with online food and grocery delivery firm DoorDash ( DASH ).

Under the terms of the agreement, DoorDash ( DASH ) customers could either pay in full, in four interest-free installments or defer payments until later.

The deal could add to Klarna's momentum ahead of its initial public offering, and comes days after it said it was partnering with consumer finance app OnePay to offer installment loans for purchases at retail giant Walmart in the United States.

Earlier this month, Klarna disclosed a 24% surge in revenue for 2024 as it moves toward a long-awaited market debut that could be one of the most high-profile listings this year.
