โœฆ Sentiment OverviewUpdated every month ยท Sep 15, 2026

N26 maintains solid customer satisfaction at 4.3/5 across 224k ratings, though sentiment has deteriorated sharply: the NeoBase index dropped to 56.5/100 (-33.4 week-over-week), signalling notable erosion despite steady review ratings. Recent coverage centres on operational strength - record 2025 profitability, Wero payment rollout - yet the sharp index decline suggests media or analyst sentiment has shifted negatively, diverging from customer-facing stability.
