Our verdict

Giromatch suits German borrowers who want a fixed-rate euro loan, a clear fee and the option to clear the balance early. Loan sizes run €100 to €100,000 and poor credit history is accepted, so a thin credit file does not rule you out.

Pros and cons

Pros

  • Loan sizes run €100 to €100,000 and terms 1 to 120, so a short bridge and a long consolidation both fit.
  • Credit checking is a soft prequal step, and poor credit history is accepted.
  • personal, payday and debt consolidation are all covered, from a small advance to a consolidation balance.
  • same day funding and credit line sit at the core of the offer, so an urgent gap between paydays can be covered.

Cons

  • One-off provision of 1.25% of the net loan amount is taken out of the net loan amount before the instalments start.
  • As a broker, the final lender and rate depend on which partner you are matched with.
  • Funding time hinges on a daily cut-off, so an application made after it waits for the next business day.

Who it suits

  • Adults in Germany holding a euro bank account who want a fixed personal loan.
  • People clearing several balances with one consolidation loan.
  • Borrowers content to be matched by a broker rather than deal with a single lender.

Who should look elsewhere

  • Cashspace, listed at PHP 12 to PHP 36, sits in a different currency market, so it does not line up with a euro loan.
  • Creduma ES, where amounts run from €12,000, is aimed at larger loans than the Giromatch range.
  • Sofkredit, at 10.74% to 18.06%, quotes a rate band where Giromatch shows a single euro figure.

Who runs it

Giromatch runs as GIROMATCH GmbH, based in Germany, and has been matching borrowers with partner lenders since 2014. The firm holds register entries with Stadt Frankfurt am Main (Ordnungsamt) and IHK Frankfurt am Main. Support runs on email, phone and help centre, so a question about a live application can reach a person by phone as well as a help centre.

Frequently asked questions

What rate do I pay on a Giromatch loan?+

The headline effective annual rate is 4.62%, and it is fixed for the whole term, listed as a fixed rate loan. That sits below the 15.5% median across personal loans on the site, so the cost of borrowing here is at the cheaper end of what is listed.

Is there an arrangement fee to pay?+

One charge applies at the start: One-off provision of 1.25% of the net loan amount. It comes out of the net loan amount rather than a separate bill, which is why the published example shows a monthly payment above the interest on its own.

How much can I borrow and for how long?+

Loan sizes run €100 to €100,000 and terms run 1 to 120, so both a short bridging sum and a multi-year consolidation are covered. Payout goes to a euro SEPA account, and the purposes listed are personal, payday and debt consolidation.

How quickly does the money arrive?+

Payout normally lands the same business day when the application arrives ahead of the daily cut-off, and an instant payout can be requested instead. Same-day funding sits inside same day funding and credit line, so a short bridge to payday is the clearest use for it.

What credit check do you run?+

Credit checking is a soft prequal step, which gives an initial view of the file. The offer targets poor credit history, so a missed payment or two on the record does not automatically rule you out of applying.

Can I repay early without a penalty?+

Early repayment carries no penalty, so clearing the balance before the end of the term saves the interest on the months you skip. On a fixed rate loan the payment size does not change; what falls is the number of instalments left.

Who is the firm behind Giromatch?+

The company is GIROMATCH GmbH, based in Germany and operating as a broker, so the loan contract is with whichever partner lender you are matched to. Its register entries are with Stadt Frankfurt am Main (Ordnungsamt) and IHK Frankfurt am Main.

What does the representative example show?+

The published example pairs an effective annual rate of 4.62% with a 1 to 120 term, the One-off provision of 1.25% of the net loan amount, and a monthly instalment covering the rate plus that provision. Worth reading first, because the same headline rate costs different amounts over a different term.
