Where people meet to lend
and borrow money

  • • Lenders get great returns
  • • Borrowers get low-cost loans with
      no sneaky early repayment charges

Someone is a happy member of Zopa.
If you take out a Zopa loan or lend more than
£2000, we'll give them £50.
Y'never know, they might go halves on it with you!
Even better though, once you're a member, you can refer
your own friends and earn lots of fifties for yourself!

Lending at Zopa

We are lenders

A smart way to get a return, alongside your savings and investments

Great returns
Some lenders are getting up to 14%pa, and the average return on all money lent to date is 7.4%pa (figures shown are before tax, but after actual bad debt and fee)

It's human
Your money helps real people, rather than banks

It's safe
All the safety measures banks use... plus a few more:

  • All borrowers are identity-checked, credit-scored and risk-assessed
  • Your money is spread across at least 50 borrowers when you lend £500 or more

Introduce a Friend Scheme – Terms & Conditions

Offer applies to all ‘Introduce a Friend' referrals who complete registration between 05.08.08 and 31.12.08 (“the Offer Period”). Only registered Zopa members are eligible to ‘Introduce a Friend'. Existing Zopa members who introduce a friend to Zopa will receive £50 when that friend either lends at least £2000, or borrows any amount of money, at Zopa during the Offer Period. The introduced friend will only receive £50 once he or she has introduced further new members to Zopa who have lent at least £2000, or borrowed any amount of money at Zopa during the Offer Period. If the same person is introduced by more than one Zopa member, the reward will be based on the recommendation which first results in registration. You can not introduce yourself or an existing Zopa member. In each eligible case, the £50 will be credited to the members' Zopa holding accounts within 28 days after the conditions have been met. If you have not yet completed the Zopa registration process you will need to complete this in order to receive your £50 reward. As part of this offer, you warrant and undertake that you have the consent of your friend(s) to disclose their personal details to Zopa for this purpose.

Friends who were referred and then registered before 05.08.08 through any previous referral offers will be rewarded based on the terms for that previous offer, where applicable.
