How it works
Mintos aggregates consumer, auto and business loans from independent loan originators across Europe. Investors buy fractional loan parts, so a single investment can be spread across many borrowers and originators. Loans list with tenor, interest rate and a loan originator rating. The platform operates a primary market for new loan parts and a secondary market where investors can trade existing positions to adjust liquidity.
Investment tools
Mintos provides tools to build and manage a diversified portfolio: manual purchases, an Auto-Invest feature with customizable rules, and a statistics dashboard showing historical returns and originator performance. Investors can set filters by country, loan type, interest rate and term. The secondary market lets you list loan parts for sale, offering a way to exit positions early though liquidity varies by loan and market conditions.
Account and safety
Creating an account requires online registration and identity verification (KYC). You fund your Mintos account via bank transfer in supported currencies; funds are then invested into loan parts rather than held as bank deposits. Mintos publishes loan originator information and performance metrics, but investments are not covered by deposit insurance. Understand platform and originator risk, diversify across many loans, and use available analytics before committing capital.
