Pros and cons
Pros
- An initial rate of 0.6% and a product fee of €0 sit on the same offer.
- Fixed periods run 3 to 10, and lending reaches a 90% loan to value.
- Comparaja, S.A. is listed with the Banco de Portugal and the ASF, so the intermediary is a named, supervised company.
Cons
- Free early repayment is no, so clearing the balance early carries a cost.
- A single market: At least 18 years old and resident in Portugal keeps the mortgage and personal loan side inside Portugal.
- Credit checks on the personal loans are hard, and only 20.1% of the lenders listed on the site prequalify softly.
Who it suits
- Portuguese buyers and remortgagers, the purchase, remortgage and first time buyer cases the site is built around.
- Borrowers who want a fixed period agreed up front, running 3 to 10.
- Applicants with a business reason to borrow, with personal, debt consolidation and car loans listed alongside the mortgage.
Who should look elsewhere
- Not for shoppers who want a wide rate table: Sofkredit's initial rate runs 8% to 14% and Prestalo's sits at 2.36%, so a single-lender view is narrow by comparison.
- Not for buyers after a middle of the market rate: Creditilia ES lists 4%.
- Not for applicants outside Portugal: At least 18 years old and resident in Portugal.

Frequently asked questions
What rate does ComparaJa offer on a new mortgage?+
The site shows an initial rate of 0.6% with a product fee of €0, fixed for a period running 3 to 10. Lending covers purchase, remortgage and first time buyer to a maximum 90% loan to value. That rate ranks 1 of 316 brands in the site's list.
Is ComparaJa a regulated company?+
Yes. Comparaja, S.A. is a licensed credit intermediary listed with the Banco de Portugal, and it also appears under the ASF, the Portuguese supervisor for insurance and pension funds. The entity works as a comparison site and a broker, so the lender, not the site, carries the lending decision.
Who can borrow through ComparaJa?+
The personal loan side asks for adults and residents of Portugal under At least 18 years old and resident in Portugal, and the site is built around a business audience. Loans run €1,000 to €75,000 over terms of 12 to 84, which suits consolidating existing debt or funding home improvement work.
Can I repay a loan early without a charge?+
Free early repayment is no, so a large part payment can leave you worse off than at a lender that waives the charge. Read the early repayment terms on the offer itself before you commit, because the answer depends on the lender sitting behind the rate.
Does ComparaJa lend the money itself?+
It does not. ComparaJa sits between applicant and lender as a broker and a comparison site, matching people with lenders and carrying the paperwork around them. The rate on the site is a single lender's offer, and the contract for the money is with that lender.
What other products does the site cover?+

How quickly does an application move?+
The application runs entirely online and the lender's approval is measured in business days rather than weeks. Waiver of the annual availability fee (comissao de disponibilizacao), Discounts up to 50% across the partner network and 100% digital subscription with no extra costs includes a free personal adviser during the application process and partner discounts, so help arrives with the paperwork.
