Estateguru launches new investment portal
Estateguru has launched a beta version of its new investment portal, focusing on investor security and ease of use.
The European peer-to-peer lending platform announced plans to launch the portal earlier this year, alongside a series of new investment products and a dedicated investment app.
“We believe that this update will significantly enhance the experience of investing and managing investments on the Estateguru platform,” said Estateguru’s chief executive Mihkel Stamm.
“We’ve been genuinely excited about the changes over the past few months, and we hope our investors will feel the same.
“Every new thing requires some adjustment and minor tweaks, but we hope to fully transition to the new version by autumn.

Stamm added that updating the portal is an important part of Estateguru’s plan to deliver a faster, more modern, and easier-to-navigate product to its users.
“First, we obtained a pan-European crowdfunding service provider license, and then we implemented Moody’s loan project evaluation methodology to improve the quality of investors’ decision making process,” he said .
“The thoroughly updated portal is the next step, which on one hand simplifies the investment process and on the other hand makes it safer for users.

A key focus of the update is security and the protection of sensitive financial transactions, Stamm said. The updated portal will enable the activation of two-factor authentication, which protects all data with unique, randomly generated passwords.
The user interface has also been redesigned in order to enable faster loading times and greater performance.
“From now on, investors can get a comprehensive overview of their portfolio directly from the main dashboard and more easily access all important activities on the platform,” explained Stamm. He added that the update also introduces a referral program that simplifies inviting friends and acquaintances to the platform.
“Our platform works best when it has a strong and engaged community, and the new referral program will contribute to the growth of our community.”
