UNICORN
N26 is one of Europe's flagship neobanks with 4.8M users across 24 countries and ~$486M revenue in 2024 (+40% YoY). The company exited a multi-year BaFin growth cap in mid-2024 and is now expanding card issuance and product set again. Last valuation $9B (2021) is widely viewed as stale; an IPO has been telegraphed for 2026-2027 but the company has not committed.

Growth
A two-thirds markdown from the 2021 peak: valued at $3B as of May 2026, against $6B in 2023 and $9B (€7.7bn) in the October 2021 Series E. N26 says BaFin's growth cap — imposed over anti-money-laundering controls — cost it "billions" in lost growth, and it has retrenched to core European markets after expensive international expansion.
