KakaoBank Offers 0.3 to 0.5 Percentage Point Preferential Rates for Loan Comparison Service Users

28 Financial Institutions Join
Preferential Rate Offer Runs Until September 30

On August 3, KakaoBank announced that it will offer a preferential interest rate of 0.3 to 0.5 percentage points to customers who both compare and execute loan products from partner financial institutions through its loan comparison service.

This preferential rate offer will run until September 30, with 28 participating financial institutions, including regional banks, savings banks, and capital companies.

Since April, KakaoBank has been providing preferential rates to customers using its loan comparison service in collaboration with its partner financial institutions. The total annual interest savings amount to 2 billion won.

Through the loan comparison service within the KakaoBank app, customers can compare loan conditions from multiple financial institutions at once. In particular, if they select a product from a partner institution offering a preferential rate, the discounted rate is applied automatically without an additional application process.

Additionally, as part of its inclusive finance initiatives, KakaoBank sets brokerage fees for citizen finance products like Sunshine Loan lower than those for general unsecured loans.

A KakaoBank representative said, "Since April, we have been offering preferential rate benefits to help customers reduce their financial costs, beyond simply comparing loan products." The representative continued, "We will continue to work with our partner financial institutions to expand customer choices and seek ways to reduce the interest burden for all financial consumers, including those with medium to low credit ratings."
