Boosting your bondora return via refer a friend

Their claims are highly misleading as always with Bondora.

They say that investors have invested €4000 on average, making it seem that the potential to earn is €200 per referral.

In fact, if you look at investing page, then you will see that there has been €72 mil of loans funded by 19000 "investors". This means average funding by one investor of roughly €3800, which is already short of that €4000 average.

However, this €72 million also includes those "a few" institutional investors that Bondora has been mentioning here and there, which means that average is actually even less. Unless you'll manage to refer some institutional investor?

But hold on, that's not all. What they also forget to mention, is that the number they have rounded up here, is based on LIFETIME investments. A decent portion of those investments has been made over several years.

Referral fees will only be paid for the first 30 days of investments of which the first week probably is wasted with registration, ID document verifications, bank deposits and getting acquainted with the site and then during the rest of the 30 days you'll perhaps have the investors invest a few hundred EUR if even that.

If you're lucky, you'll probably get something like €5 per referred person if they even decide to invest, because there is no meaningful way to do that with Bondora nowadays, and you'll probably lose a friend once they realize what the numbers actually mean and what has happened with their money
