Bondster

Bondster runs a resale marketplace lending platform, which means it aggregates pre-funded loans from partner organisations (loan originators) and re-sells them to investors. Bondster is managed by BONDSTER Marketplace s.r.o., headquatered in Czech Republic. It hasn't been licensed by a relevant supervisory authority.

Bondster makes it possible to provide funding to individuals, business owners, real estate developers, and crypto assets holders by investing in personal loans, business loans, short-term personal loans, real estate loans, and crypto loans. Bondster only serves lenders, so you can’t apply for a loan directly on the platform.

At Bondster, you can invest in projects denominated in EUR starting from €5. You can also set up an auto-invest feature and buy and sell loans on a secondary market.

Bondster separates investors’ funds from the platform company assets but doesn’t have a wind-down plan in place to ensure minimal damage in case the platform goes out of business. It discloses statistics about its funded loans on a dedicated public page and shares its monthly funding volumes with P2PMarketData.

Bondster was started in 2014 by CEP Invest. CEP Invest is a private equity investment company focused mainly on the Czech Republic and Central Europe which has operated since 2009.
