The originator undertakes to buy back the loan from you if the borrower is more than X days in arrears, repaying you the principal and interest. This is subject to the originator remaining solvent.
Buyback
A financial buffer that the platform sets aside from its own commission to cover defaults before they affect you. Its effectiveness depends on its actual size relative to the total amount lent.
Reserve fund
The originator invests a portion of its own capital in the same loan or portfolio alongside the investors, thereby aligning its interests with those of the investors in ensuring that the loan is repaid in full.
Skin in the game
Your uninvested money is held in an account separate from the company’s balance sheet, at a bank or regulated payment institution. If the platform goes bankrupt, that money is not included in the distribution to its creditors.

InvantAPPs Summary
What is Lonvest?
Lonvest is a Croatian platform, founded in 2023, to invest in consumer and originator loans in Mexico, Malaysia, and Singapore. You choose the country and the term, and you collect capital and interest at maturity. You can exit before the maturity without a fee, although you forgo the accumulated interest. Lonvest does not have a financial license; its activity is not supervised by a financial regulator. In our scale, Lonvest has a moderate-high risk.
Lonvest has been operating since 2023. The company operates Lonvest Platform d.o.o., in Zagreb, and according to Lonvest all its founders belong to the SpaceCrew Finance group. It buys consumer loans in Mexico and Malaysia and business loans in Singapore: in practice, it buys the right to collect them. You choose the country and term, from 30 days to a year, and you can reinvest at maturity automatically.
According to Lonvest, if a loan is delayed for more than 90 days, the originator must repurchase it. Its terms make it a right of the originator, which is only obliged if they are insolvent or fail to fulfill their agreement with Lonvest. Lonvest also announces a group guarantee for when an originator is unable to repurchase, but it is not included in its terms. The originator manages the collection of defaults without you having to intervene.
Lonvest does not have a financial license; its activity is not supervised by a financial regulator. There is no investor compensation system in place. Your uninvested funds are kept separate from those of the platform.
You can request an early withdrawal without commission: you recover the capital in your balance, but you lose the accumulated interest. Its terms are subject to the originator accepting it. There is no secondary market among investors: you can only sell a complete loan to the originator itself. Thus, the capital does not depend on another investor buying it.
Everything rests on a single group: the buyback and its guarantee depend on the solvency of SpaceCrew Finance. These are short-term loans in emerging markets, on a platform with little track record. Moreover, you do not receive payments during the term: capital and interest arrive together at the end.
Withdrawal of funds is free. The transfer to your bank may take up to 7 business days and, according to Lonvest, there is a weekly limit on withdrawals per account. Lonvest does not withhold taxes at source; you generate the tax report from your account.
We started investing in Lonvest in 2024. In our scale, Lonvest has a moderate-high risk profile. Its strength is its ability to exit without touching the capital; its lack of financial license and dependence on a single group limit its liquidity position to a small one.
