Why Klarna Settlements Need Special Handling for Xero

The BNPL Fee Problem

Klarna operates on Buy Now Pay Later model. They pay you the full order amount upfront, then deduct their fee. Settlement reports show NET amounts (after Klarna's commission). Your Xero sales show $100, but only $96 hits your bank. Manual reconciliation is painful.

What This Tool Does

We convert Klarna settlement reports to match your bank deposits: - Maps net_settlement_amount to Xero Amount field - Converts payout_date to your Xero region format - Preserves merchant_reference for order matching - Handles refunds with automatic sign conversion - Creates proper payee and description fields

Common Bank Statement Import Errors

Issues you might encounter when importing Settlement Report Export data to Bank Statement - and how we solve them

Missing Payout Dates

Xero import fails because payout_date column is missing or empty

Export the Settlement Report from Klarna Merchant Portal. Ensure the report includes payout_date column. Filter to settled transactions only.

Negative Settlement Amounts

Net settlement shows negative values due to high refund activity or fee adjustments

This is normal for refund-heavy periods. Negative amounts appear as debits in Xero. Review fee structure if consistently negative.

Xero Rejects Import Due to Date Format

Xero can't parse dates because wrong regional format is used

Set the correct region (UK/AU/NZ use DD/MM/YYYY, US uses MM/DD/YYYY). Check your Xero organisation settings.

Merchant References Empty

merchant_reference column is empty making order matching difficult

Enable 'include_merchant_reference' option and ensure your Klarna integration passes merchant_reference when creating orders.

Frequently Asked Questions

Klarna pays you net amounts (after their fee). Importing net amounts matches what actually hits your bank account for easier reconciliation.
Create a separate expense entry in Xero for fees, or use journal entries to split gross/fees/net.
Refunds are automatically detected and converted to negative amounts in Xero import format.
Recommended: Create a 'Klarna Clearing' bank account in Xero, then match transfers to your actual bank account.
