Mintos is one of my passive income accounts in P2P lending. My account is returning about 10-15 euros a month. However, I have discovered new information that should allow me to increase my returns slightly. My old strategy was to keep my money safe, selecting all loan originators with a B+ or greater rating and Buyback guarantee. This meant an average return of ~10%. My new strategy (which you can read here) was to set higher requirements and I have sorted out originators which do not pay interest on delayed loans. With the new strategy, my average return is ~13.5%. Furthermore, it seems as if Mintos has started releasing higher-yielding loans on its platform.
Comments of Mintos income
I want to investigate if the returns will increase with the new strategy. I have had zero problems with Mintos so I will keep my funds to accumulate. Mintos is one of the bigger P2P sites so if we are close to a recession I would rather have my funds on a bigger site which can take a financial loss for a period. Mintos as passive income is really great when the auto-invest is set properly, and for now, I will just enjoy it.
