Pros and cons

Pros

  • Fixed-rate pricing at 110% to 394.9% and terms of 3 to 48 keep the instalment predictable.
  • Free early repayment lets you settle without an exit charge.
  • The application is fully online with an instant response, and funds reach your account once investors have paid in.
  • Support runs through email, phone and help centre.

Cons

  • Rates of 110% to 394.9% sit far above the 14.43% median for personal loans across the listings.
  • The arrangement fee adds 3% to 13% of the amount requested plus VAT, on top of a per-instalment processing charge.
  • An instant response leaves the payout timing with investors, since money transfers once the request is funded.

Who it suits

  • Borrowers in Argentina with poor credit who still need personal or business borrowing.
  • People financing home improvement who are willing to pay a share of the amount in platform fees.
  • Borrowers who want to clear a fixed-rate loan early without a charge.

Who should look elsewhere

  • Cashspace, where rates of PHP 12 to PHP 36 sit a long way below the 110% to 394.9% on offer here.
  • Sofkredit, which advertises rates of 10.74% to 18.06% for anyone unwilling to accept a cost of borrowing this high.
  • Creduma ES, where lending starts at from €12,000 and suits larger, more established borrowers.

The company behind it

Afluenta is operated by Afluenta S.A. (CUIT 30-71178121-4), a company based in Argentina. It is a marketplace rather than a branch lender, so requests from personal and business borrowers are put to private investors and each borrower is matched with funding rather than a rate set in house. Borrower support runs through email, phone and help centre.

Frequently asked questions

How much does an Afluenta loan cost?+

The rate reflects investor demand for your request, with fixed-rate loans priced at 110% to 394.9%. On top of interest, the platform charges a use fee of 3% to 13% of the amount requested plus VAT, and a processing charge applies to each instalment, also with VAT. The representative example shows the total repaid running well beyond the amount borrowed.

Who qualifies for a loan from Afluenta?+

The stated credit requirement is poor, and the application runs a hard credit check. Loans cover personal and business borrowing, with amounts of up to ARS 5,000,000 and terms of 3 to 48.

How does applying and getting the money work?+

You apply fully online and get an immediate response, usually within minutes. Money is transferred to your account once investors have funded the request, so the timing of the payout sits with investors rather than a firm deadline.

Is Afluenta regulated?+

Afluenta is registered with the Banco Central de la Republica Argentina as a provider of credit between individuals through platforms, and it operates as Afluenta S.A. (CUIT 30-71178121-4). That registration covers the marketplace activity, in which private investors fund each borrower's request.

Can I repay a loan early?+

Free early repayment is available, so settling ahead of schedule attracts no exit charge. Because the loans are fixed-rate, the instalment stays predictable across a term of 3 to 48, which helps if income is steady for the whole period.

What support is there after taking a loan?+

Support runs through email, phone and help centre, so help is available by email and phone as well as through a help centre. Existing borrowers can use the same channels for questions on the instalment schedule or an early settlement.

How does Afluenta compare with cheaper lenders?+

It sits at the expensive end of the market. Personal loans across the listings carry a median APR of 14.43%, against 110% to 394.9% for Afluenta, so a lender charging PHP 12 to PHP 36 or 10.74% to 18.06% can work out cheaper where your credit allows it.

What happens if a borrower cannot keep up?+

Defaults are part of the price of the market: the share of retail lending that ends in loss typically runs at 70.15% across listings and reaches 74.5% at the higher end. Interest set at 110% to 394.9% is priced against that risk, which is part of why borrowing here costs so much.
