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 doesn't hold a crowdfunding or financial institution license.

Bondster gives you the opportunity to provide funding to individuals, business owners, real estate developers, and crypto assets holders by investing in personal loans, business loans, payday loans, real estate loans, crypto loans, and car loans. Bondster only serves lenders, so you can’t apply for a loan directly on the platform.

At Bondster, you can make EUR-denominated investments 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 founded 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.
