Among European crowdlending platforms that publish a cumulative figure, Mintos reports €13 billion invested in total (Mintos statistics, read 3 October 2026). PeerBerry reports €3.56 billion, Estateguru €969 million and Maclear €158.9 million. Each figure counts something different, so the tables below label and date every one.

Age, published volume and loan types of ten European crowdlending platforms

All ten platforms below publish their own statistics. Each cell was read on 3 October 2026 unless a date appears in it, and n/a marks an item the pages read do not give.

Mintos Marketplace launched January 2015 (TechCrunch, 23 Feb 2016) €13 billion "total invested"; "€800m+ assets under management" (statistics, home page) Personal, short-term, car, mortgage, business, agricultural and pawnbroking loans, car rentals, invoice financing, Forward Flow (help page, 13 Jun 2025)

Live counters change between reads. For example, Maclear's counters moved from €158.4M+ and 56,435 investors to the figures above between two reads on 3 October 2026. Every live counter in the table is a reading. Therefore, none is a fixed total.

Minimum investment, exit route and investor residence on the same ten platforms

Minimums run from €1 to €250. However, the units differ between per loan, per project and per account. In addition, the residence column quotes what each platform's own page states.

Platform Minimum investment Exit route as stated Investor residence as stated
Mintos €50 on the primary market, €1 on the secondary (help, 17 Aug 2026) Secondary market for Notes only since 1 Jul 2022 (help, 7 May 2026); a sale depends on finding a buyer (home page) EEA, EU or Swiss citizens and residents aged 18 or over; UK residents and US nationals cannot register (help, 24 Jul 2025)

UK and non-EU access on the three platforms that state it

Three of the ten pages name the United Kingdom or its residents.

  • Mintos states on its help page of 24 July 2025 that UK residents cannot register or invest.
  • Robocash accepts residents of the EU, the UK or Switzerland who hold a bank account in that region. Its how-it-works page also sets 18 as the minimum age.
  • Maclear's registration FAQ lists the UK among 44 countries of residence.

Licence details behind that access, including the FCA rules that apply to UK platforms, sit in who licenses which platform.

Cumulative volume against outstanding portfolio on Robocash, PeerBerry and Go & Grow

A cumulative figure adds up every loan ever funded, while an outstanding figure shows what is on the books now. Still, Robocash and PeerBerry publish both kinds on their own pages, and Go & Grow publishes two related measures.

Platform Cumulative figure Current-stock figure Stock as a share of cumulative
Robocash €1,384,943,814 invested through the platform €68,219,116.04 outstanding portfolio 4.9%
PeerBerry €3,556,853,543 total invested €81,950,480 of real estate loans, 51.98% of outstanding, which implies about €157.7M outstanding in total 4.4%

Shares in the last column are arithmetic on figures taken on 3 October 2026 from Robocash and PeerBerry. Likewise, Go & Grow's page shows a gap between two measures. That page gives €2.27 billion invested in Go & Grow against €1.88 billion in Bondora loans issued.

Published loan terms on European P2P platforms

Terms range from days to years, so each platform's basis needs reading on its own.

  • Robocash's originators page lists consumer loans of 7 to 180 days (Big Loan) and 7 to 183 days (Digido).
  • Estateguru's blog gives typical terms of 12 to 18 months for property-backed loans.
  • CivisLend's July 2026 release reports a 16-month average term for projects financed in the first half of 2026.
  • BienPrêter's statistics show a weighted contractual average of 17 months since 2018 and an actual average of 13 months.
  • Debitum Flow Notes have a 5-year maturity with an option to request a withdrawal earlier.

Buyback, provision fund and mortgage security as each platform words it

Platforms protect investors in three different ways: a buyback by the loan originator, a fund filled by the platform, or security over an asset. Wording in the table is each platform's own.

Platform Mechanism as stated Trigger or scope
Mintos Buyback obligation, a credit enhancement for a particular loan. The lending company or a group entity gives it to the Note issuer (help, 7 Dec 2022) Loan more than 60 days late; the page scopes it to Notes
PeerBerry Loan originator buys back in full with accrued interest, plus an additional group guarantee (help) Borrower more than 60 days late; force majeure may affect both guarantees
Lendermarket Loan originator repays principal plus accrued interest (FAQ) Borrower more than 60 days late
Robocash Loan originator repurchases the claim (how it works) No later than 30 days after the due date
Debitum The partner that issued the loan has the option to buy it back (FAQ, 4 Dec 2025) Loan in the recovery stage; pays remaining principal and interest earned to the trigger date
Maclear Provision Fund filled with 2% of each funded project (FAQ, 10 Sep 2026; terms clause 3.9) Covers losses on interest and/or principal to the extent funds are available. A delay over 3 days triggers interest payments from the fund. Grant Thornton AG audits it
Estateguru Estateguru says most property-backed loans carry first-rank mortgage security; the rank is stated in each project's documents (blog, property-backed loans) Per project
CivisLend Mortgages, corporate sureties and share pledges, depending on the deal (FAQ) Per project
BienPrêter Up to 11 listed security mechanisms (guarantees page) Chosen per project

European P2P platform comparison FAQ

How large are the cumulative volumes that European P2P platforms publish?

Mintos reports €13 billion "total invested" on its statistics page read 3 October 2026, PeerBerry €3.56 billion, Estateguru €969 million and Maclear €158.9 million. Each platform counts a different measure, which makes the figures incomparable as a ranking. The Mintos website also shows €800m+ in assets under management, a separate measure from cumulative volume.

How much money does it take to start on a European P2P platform?

The minimum is between €1 and €250 on the ten platforms read. Go & Grow is at €1, and PeerBerry, Debitum, Robocash and Lendermarket are at €10. BienPrêter is at €20, Mintos, Estateguru and Maclear are at €50, and CivisLend is at €250 per project.

Can UK residents invest on European P2P platforms?

It depends on the platform. Mintos states that UK residents cannot register or invest (help page, 24 July 2025). Robocash accepts residents of the EU, the UK or Switzerland. Maclear lists the UK among its 44 countries of residence (FAQ, 3 August 2026). In the licence article linked above, the FCA rules that apply to UK platforms and the FSCS position are covered.

Does every European P2P platform have a secondary market?

No. Debitum's FAQ of 29 April 2026 says it does not currently offer one. However, Mintos (Notes only), PeerBerry (after 180 days), Estateguru, Robocash, Maclear (14-day listings) and BienPrêter (BP Flex) describe one.

What separates a buyback guarantee from a provision fund?

A buyback guarantee is an obligation of the loan originator to repurchase a late loan, as PeerBerry's 60-day and Robocash's 30-day terms show. A provision fund is a pool the platform fills, which at Maclear takes 2% of each funded project. Maclear's FAQ of 10 September 2026 says its fund is not an insurance scheme and does not legally guarantee full repayment of interest or principal.
