See the current ranking →Credit offers with verified APR in Romania, August 2026
Active offers whose displayed APR matches an identifiable lender example, grouped by category and ordered from low to high.
The review covers personal loans, fast loans, credit cards, car loans, mortgages and refinancing. A value enters the ranking only when it matches an identifiable example in lender documents. In August 2026, 45 offers meet that test; other values may remain visible in the comparator without a lowest-cost label.
Our methodology
The ranking uses only APR reconciled with a lender example. Eligible values are ordered from low to high within each category. APR includes nominal interest and mandatory costs in the representative example, while the final offer still depends on the applicant profile.
Data is manually verified before publication by visiting each lender's official page. The „lastVerified” field in our database logs that verification date. No lender pays to appear higher. The order is algorithmic and identical for every reader.
Beyond APR, we include minimum and maximum amount, minimum and maximum term, institution type (bank or NBR-registered NBFI), and online availability. Readers with specific profiles (income, term, BNR score) can adjust the selection with our comparator, which recalculates the monthly payment from the entered data.
