About Brett Narlinger

Klarna, the global digital bank and flexible payments provider, has expanded its partnership with Blackhawk Network (BHN), a leading global provider of branded payment solutions, to give consumers even more choice and flexibility for purchasing gift cards, just in time for the holidays.

Global branded payments provider, Blackhawk Network (BHN) is bringing more secure contactless innovations to physical gift cards with the new Tap to Pay Visa Gift Card. Sold in tamper-evident packaging without any human-readable data elements, like an account number, CVV or mag stripe on the card, the risk of sensitive information falling into the wrong hands can be significantly minimized. Consumers can access funds by simply using the card’s tap-to-pay capability at any contactless-enabled terminal, or by adding the card to a mobile wallet using the MyCardWallet app. The Tap to Pay Visa Gift Card will be available for purchase at select locations beginning in summer 2025.
