✦ Sentiment OverviewUpdated every month · Aug 19, 2026

N26 maintains strong media momentum around Wero's European rollout and first full-year profitability, yet customer sentiment shows divergence: a 3.5/5 review average across 222K+ ratings is softening in recent weeks, while the NeoBase sentiment index stands at 89.9 (-0.4 week-over-week). The gap suggests headline wins aren't translating uniformly into user satisfaction.
