My experience with this company was not good at all. There is nothing positive here, only a waste of time. Support is extremely poor and Discord moderators do not help at all. Instead of solving issues or answering questions, they simply give timeouts. There is no transparency and no proper customer support. They only try to maintain a good image, but the reality is completely different. If you face any problem, don’t expect help from their team. I do not recommend this company to anyone. Total waste of time and effort.

TUF isn’t at all far from being the best firm in the industry. It’s only a matter of time—they’re building something serious, and they surely deserve attention!

Upside Funding has truly impressed me! Their platform is smooth and beginner-friendly, and what stands out the most is their support team. They respond quickly, guide you professionally, and never leave you hanging. If you want a prop firm that genuinely cares about traders, Upside Funding is the one. Highly recommended!

My wife (Adelle – see her testimonial on TrustPilot) has been trading for a couple of years and recently took a look at the prop trading industry as she wants to trade others’ capital as well as our own. She researched many prop firms and was disillusioned by the behaviours of some of them. She was about to give up on prop trading when she found The Upside Funding. She’s been very impressed with their approach to this sector, backgrounds of the founders, and their professionalism. I wrote this testimonial today because overnight TUF support team were on hand to advise her on some new technology she is considering. That alone shows a willingness to go beyond the call of duty. While I won’t be prop trading myself, preferring to remain trading options only, credit where credit is due in the prop trading world. I’m looking forward to seeing how pleased Adelle will be when she is funded. Keep up the great work Team TUF!! I’m impressed… and my wife talks about you all the time, so you must be good as she’s hard to please sometimes!!
