uphold Review — Overview
uphold is a cryptocurrency exchange based in Bahamas, established in 1998. On Trust Broker Hub it holds a Trust Score of 1.1 out of 10, which we rate as Poor — below the 5.3/10 average for brokers that hold a verified licence. High-risk profile — proceed only with caution and small amounts.
We could not verify any regulatory licence for uphold. Trading with an unregulated broker is high-risk — your funds are not protected by any authority, and there is no official body to turn to if withdrawals are blocked or the broker disappears. We strongly recommend a regulated alternative from the list on this page.
uphold provides access to Cryptocurrencies, commodities, fiats, stable coins. Its detailed trading conditions — minimum deposit, spreads and maximum leverage — are not publicly disclosed, which lowers transparency. No complaints are currently on record. Overall, uphold carries a high-risk profile. Only consider it with money you can afford to lose, and verify everything independently first.
