Well this is hilarious! Klarna say they wanted regulation all along 🙃 Funny, because last time I checked they threatened to sue me in 2020 after launching a campaign calling for regulation and outing them for predatory behaviour…

We’ve been waiting almost six years for this 👀 Starting today, buy now pay later is regulated in the UK — something we asked for back in 2020. For consumers, this is a big win. New protections and more rights, such as:

When I started Bloom, a lot of friends were surprised bc they thought I’d start a FinTech focused on women. I was too, tbh. Financial feminism is so important to me, so I was glad to lend my voice for @AliceRTapper’s piece on economic abuse in @GlamourMagUK
