| Planet | Orbital period | Distance from star | Radius (Earths) | Mass (Earths) | Found | Method |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kepler-48 b | 4.778 days | 0.05394 AU | 1.88 | 3.94 | 2012 | Transit |
| Kepler-48 c | 9.674 days | 0.08633 AU | 2.71 | 14.61 | 2012 | Transit |
| Kepler-48 d | 42.9 days | 0.233 AU | 2.04 | 7.93 | 2014 | Transit |
| Kepler-48 e | 2.689 years | 1.898 AU | 657 | 2014 | Radial Velocity | |
| Kepler-48 f | 14.29 years | 5.719 AU | at least 298.6 | 2023 | Radial Velocity |
"At least" is a minimum mass. Radial velocity can only measure mass times the sine of the orbit's tilt.
