Zilch is a direct-to-consumer payments network that blends purchasing with advertising to provide flexible pay-later options for online and in-store purchases, subsidized by advertising revenue. It operates under FCA regulation with a consumer credit license and has a footprint in London, Miami, and Krakow. The service works by offering customers pay-later payments at checkout, funded in part by ad subsidies and ongoing relationships with merchants, while collecting data to target ads and improve uptake. Zilch differentiates itself from competitors through its ad-supported, consumer-credit-subsidy model and its global presence, aiming to minimize or eliminate the cost of consumer credit for users. Its stated goal is to remove the cost of consumer credit “for good.”

Klarna and Zilch launch paid memberships to rival credit cards with cashback and perks

Swedish fintech Klarna and UK rival Zilch have launched paid membership packages to compete with traditional credit cards. Klarna's four-tier system ranges from €4.99 to €44.99 monthly, offering cashback, perks, and subscriptions. Its top tier, Klarna Max, includes 23 subscriptions and a metal card, undercutting AmEx Platinum's €760 annual fee. Zilch introduced its first paid memberships for its 5 million customers. Zilch Extra costs £2.99 monthly, whilst Zilch Plus is £3.99 monthly and includes higher rewards and a physical card. Both companies are positioning themselves against incumbent credit card providers by offering flexible month-to-month upgrades rather than annual commitments. Klarna's European rollout begins in coming weeks.
