Pros and cons

Pros

  • Money can arrive the same day after the contract is signed, and the service lists same day funding as a feature.
  • Amounts run €500 to €25,000 with terms of 3 to 84, so short and long borrowings both sit inside the range.
  • personal, debt consolidation and credit line covers personal, debt consolidation, credit line, secured, car and business lending.
  • phone, email and help centre means phone, email and a help centre are all open to applicants.

Cons

  • Free early repayment: no, so clearing the balance before the end of the term can come with a cost.
  • A formation fee of 336 EUR is added to the loan and weighs most on smaller amounts.
  • Applications are limited to permanent Latvian residents with regular official income and a current account at a Latvian bank.

  • Borrowers funding home improvement, the purpose named under home improvement.
  • People who want several lenders compared on their behalf, since the service is a broker.

Who should look elsewhere

  • Not Creduma ES, which starts at from €12,000 and is aimed at larger sums.
  • Not Sofkredit, where 10.74% to 18.06% caps the rate below the top of this range.
  • Not Cashspace, whose PHP 12 to PHP 36 is quoted in pesos rather than in the euro amounts here.

Frequently asked questions

What does it cost to borrow through Kreditstar.lv?+

The rate sits at 12% to 29.9% and every loan carries a formation fee of 336 EUR. The published representative example shows the total repayable standing well above the amount borrowed once that fee is added, so the fee matters most on smaller borrowings.

Is Kreditstar.lv regulated?+

It holds a credit intermediary licence in Latvia, numbered KS-25, and operates as SIA Schaefer. Because it works as a broker, the borrowing contract itself is with a lending partner rather than with the site.

How much can I borrow and for how long?+

Amounts run €500 to €25,000 and terms run 3 to 84. personal, debt consolidation and credit line covers personal loans, debt consolidation, credit lines, secured lending, car finance and business loans, so the same broker can handle a small consolidation and a larger secured sum.

How quickly is the money sent?+

Funding comes the same day after the contract is signed, and the timing depends on the lender and bank you are matched with. The service lists same day funding as a feature, so speed sits inside the offer rather than being a separate extra.

Who can apply?+

Applicants must be adults and permanent residents of Latvia, with regular official income, an active current account at a Latvian bank, and a valid phone and email. Both the residence and the bank account have to be Latvian, which rules out applicants living and banking elsewhere.

Can I repay the loan early without a charge?+

Free early repayment: no. The offer does not include it, so settling the balance before the end of the term can carry a cost. That is worth weighing if your income might rise, or if you took a consolidation loan to clear other debts sooner.

How do I reach support if something goes wrong?+

phone, email and help centre covers phone, email and a help centre, so there is both a direct line and a written record for any question about a contract. Since the site is a broker, questions about the rate and the lender go through the same team first.

How does this offer compare with other listings?+

The offer score reads 5.6 and the overall score is 5.6. On loan amount it ranks 359 of 665 brands, so it sits in the wider field rather than at the front. Across the site the retail loss figure is 70.15%.
