1. Acceptance Process

Purchase on account for business customers  via Klarna powered by Billie (Billie B2B BNPL or Billie Kauf auf Rechnung)

The order is accepted by sending a declaration of acceptance in a separate e-mail or by delivery of the goods within three to four days. The declaration of acceptance by e-mail is sent by Billie GmbH, which has acquired the Claim against the business customer if the payment method Billie B2B BNPL  is selected.

2. Retention of Title

The goods and services underlying the business customer’s purchase remain the property of the Merchant until paid for in full.

3. Acquisition of Claim

Business customers have the option to pay the invoice amount by bank transfer after receipt of the goods and invoice ("purchase on account"). To offer such services, there is a cooperation with Klarna Bank AB ("Klarna"), which in turn cooperates with the financial service provider Billie GmbH ("Billie") to offer the payment method Billie B2B BNPL. In order to pay the invoice amount by bank transfer, a registration with Klarna is not required. After selecting the payment method during the ordering process, an address and credit check is performed by Billie. If such checks are successful, the order process can be carried out with the selected payment method and the Claim against the Customer is first assigned to Klarna and consecutively assigned from Klarna to Billie. The invoice amount shall be paid within the payment period indicated on the invoice and to the account, which will be communicated to the business customer as part of Billie's payment instructions.

4. Privacy

• Transaction-related data: Invoice amount and payment term, information about products you order, such as order ID, quantity, shopping cart and billing information, existing customer status.

This data is used by Klarna and Billie solely for the purpose of checking whether the payment method requested by the Customer is available and, if the check is successful, for processing this payment method.

5. Payment requests, reminders and late fees

When selecting the payment method Billie B2B BNPL, Billie will send payment requests and payment reminders via email. Payments shall exclusively be made to the account specified herein.

If a customer's payments cannot be clearly assigned, Billie has the right to offset incoming payments from a Customer against outstanding claims of the merchant against this Customer, whereby a payment is initially offset against the oldest outstanding claim. If there are several open claims of the same age, a payment will be credited proportionately to all claims.

Overdue payments may entail late fees including administration fees incurred in dunning and collections processes and will be passed on the Customer. Such late fees will be added to the Customer’s outstanding balance and shall be immediately payable.
