That’s 1.8% annually. Better rates than European banks are getting on most low-risk lending.

It's even better, 3 month euribor rates are currently negative. So it's a safe way to use their money without "paying" the negative interest rate.

You can get home loans in EU with 1.8%? That’s the lowest risk since it has collateral. These are unsecured loans.

(A) Yes, in many countries. (B) that card loan is only at effective 1.6% for 60 days; if it’s not paid at that point it turns into potentially 20%. (c) Most card payments are debit anyway afaik; no loan longer than a day or so involved.
