Hi all,

I was wondering if someone could tell me how the listing is made when
one chooses the option "Sort By Popularity" ? Does it refer to the
latest loans that were lended to? If so, since when?

Thanks,
istib

Popularity scores are generated based on a combination of factors, such as how often the profile page is viewed and how fast it is fundraising.  The algorithm is complex and occasionally changes a bit, but in general a loan that's seeing a lot of activity will have a higher popularity score.
