Two updates to the Alternative Armies website to tell you all about, and a progress report too. The first is that we now accept the payment method of Klarna for those who seek to use it for purchases, and secondly, that we have reverted back to single currency display on our website. Lastly, the GPSR and the E.U. resolution is nearing.

What is Klarna?

Klarna

In 2024, we were asked many times if we would accept orders from the Swedish service provider, and now we do. You have to sign up for an account with them in your country, but once you do, you will be able to choose Klarna as an option when checking out on our webstore. Selecting Klarna at payment methods gives you order payment options. You can pay in full, or choose to pay in three installments (interest free), or pay in 30 days' time. This is an arrangement with Klarna, and not with Alternative Armies. We treat Klarna orders as we do any others, with quick dispatch. See their website for more information (klarna.com).

We have taken the choice to return to the sole use of GBP (Great British Pounds) as currency on our website, rather than displaying prices in local currencies. Consulting with our customers over the last year led, on balance, to this being preferred. This does not change order placement or prices or anything else, it simply means you will see GBP as U.K. customers do, regardless of where you are in the world.

GPSR

We are working on a solution to the European Union's GPSR legislation for selling our products into the EU/EEA and Northern Ireland once more. See our blog article for the current situation. Hopefully before the end of this month, we will announce a return to providing miniatures and more to customers in these regions. If you would like to be informed of this as soon as it happens, please email us on sales@alternative-armies.com, and we will contact you as soon as the shipping matrix features EU/EEA/NI once more. We are confident it will happen smoothly and soon.

Thanks for Your Time!
