Klarna’s US IPO Timeline
In April 2025, Klarna appeared to halt its plans for an IPO due to uncertainties following the announcement of Trump’s tariffs. Despite this setback, the company reported a revenue increase of 13% year-over-year, reaching USD 701 million, and noted having 100 million active users along with 724,000 merchant partners worldwide.
Other fintech companies that have recently launched their US IPOs include Figma, Circle, and Chime Financial, each contributing to the evolving landscape of financial technology.
