I’m a reasonably experienced trader in options, but not FX and wanted to ‘give it a go’. Having found my FX trading edge, the next step was to find a ‘decent and trustworthy’ prop trading firm to build a successful trading relationship with. Given the reputation of the prop trading industry, and the high failure rate of them, I researched firms for months, asking them Qs by email, chat bots and their live helpdesk chat rooms (sadly, many didn’t have the courtesy of responding). However, I persisted and recently found The Upside Funding… it’s been a whirlwind experience, but so far, it’s 10 ⭐from me. 🤩 Here’s a summary of my thoughts on The Upside Funding thus far: • They’ve been transparent about how they operate, and how they differentiate themselves. • Their trading rules are clear, as are the evaluations and fully funded processes. • Payouts percentages, rules and timing are clear – between 75-90%. • Customer services is responsive – and fast. • Three of the five founders actually work in the business, and James, one of the founders is available to funded traders as he’s head of trader management. • The founders are all very experienced banking experts from leading international banks, so they know how to run a trading business • It’s founded by Australians and New Zealanders, and that feels a little more safe for me than some prop firms – probably because I am a Kiwi living in London. • They are truly wanting their traders to pass the evaluations, get funded and start making great real money. • They say they will pay $1K if they are late in making a payment. A good extra ‘touch’ if they’re late. • They appear to want to promote more women trading the markets - that is music to my ears!! • There is an opportunity to become a remote trader for TUF, being coached and mentored by them, and then potentially earning big money from trading. It’s early days in my FX trading with a prop firm, but for me it’s … so far, so good! I feel safe in this space with them, and given the relationship I have built with James and others on the team via email and WhatsApp, I am confident I will do well trading FX with them, and they will support me to be even more financially successful. Afterall, in achieving that, we all win!!

My first time with TUF, support has been great i get replies in less than a day despite the assumed difference in time zone. The rules are amazing compared to most other fx firms out there. Hoping to get my first TUF payout soon!

FAQs

Are prop firms legal in the UK?

Yes. UK traders can legally join overseas prop firms as long as the firm operates transparently and follows its own jurisdiction’s regulations. You trade using the firm’s simulated capital, so it does not fall under FCA retail trading rules.

Yes. The Upside Funding allows UK traders to use their own trading styles, including discretionary, automated, bot-driven, or algorithmic strategies, as long as they meet risk parameters and avoid prohibited practices.

Prop firm profits are typically treated as self-employed income for UK residents. You may need to declare earnings through Self Assessment. It’s recommended to speak with a UK tax adviser for personalised guidance.

You can get funded as soon as you pass the evaluation. With 1-step and 2-step challenges available, motivated UK traders often reach funded status within days or weeks.

Most UK payouts are processed via bank transfer, Wise, or crypto, depending on the trader’s preference. Upside Funding offers fast, reliable payouts, and UK traders can receive earnings in GBP when supported by their chosen payment method.

Not for simulated capital programs. FCA regulation applies to firms offering financial products or client money handling. Prop firm evaluations and funded accounts operate on simulated models, so FCA authorisation is not required.

Look for:
• Clear rules and realistic profit targets
• Fast, reliable GBP-friendly payouts
• Strong Trustpilot reviews from UK traders
• No hidden fees or restrictive trading limitations
• Fair scaling plans and high profit splits
The Upside Funding is structured to provide all of these benefits.

You can trade major forex pairs, indices, commodities, crypto, and more, with spreads suitable for active UK trading sessions, including the London open.

Ready to prove your edge, UK trader?

Join The Upside Funding and trade using simulated capital, low-cost conditions, and fast, reliable payouts designed for UK traders.
