The story

Bondora is one of Europe's established peer-to-peer consumer lending platforms, serving over 125,000 investors across 37 countries. Voima Gold is a Finnish fintech offering gold-backed digital accounts. EstateGuru is a real estate-backed crowdfunding and lending platform. All three adopted shared embedded finance infrastructure, most notably Onfido for KYC, as part of a push to support international user onboarding. Bondora expanded its product suite with insurance-adjacent payment protection products (B Secure, B Secure+), deepening the embedded finance stack beyond pure lending.
