Hey,
Mintos platform (I am sure there are more platforms doing the same) will pay out Interest and if the borrower is late with the payment, a separate "late payment fee" charged to the borrower. All received late payment fees are shown separate from received Interest. How will I have to declare it at the end of the year? As interest or "other" income?

Is the 'fee' a fixed sum or does it grow over time? If the former, I'd be tempted to put it in 'Other'. If the latter, then as interest. Late payment fee will depend on how late the borrower is with the payment. For example, if instalment payment was due on the 1st and borrowers only pays back on the 10th, on the 10th I would receive interest (up to 1st) and a late payment fee covering 10 days (it is in addition to interest, calculated daily for each late day). If someone was late multiple times, late fees would be charged each time payment is late (as well as interest)
