Withdrawal Verification

I uploaded a bank statement with my name, account details, and payment to 212 as proof, but was asked to show my personal bank balance and all private transactions.
Fake Social Proof

Quotes of the week

Hear from some of the most impactful users to drive changes

The lack of dashboard customization is a major flaw that shows a complete misunderstanding of your traders' needs. The app forces a one-size-fits-all layout on every user, and it works not as good as needed. Why can't I just build the dashboard I need? Good platforms allow for customization because every trader has a different workflow.
dvJamaicanChargiee
Love the app however some of the interfaces are downright confusing to use. Showing totals differently across time frames on charts and not explaining this without a tool-tip deep dive is a pain. The charting on Robinhood is significantly better quality than this.
Spyriadon
The main balance display is a source of constant confusion and anxiety. At the top of the screen there are three different numbers presented side-by-side without any clear context: Total Value, Buying Power and Cash Balance. In a financial app, ambiguity about your own money is the last thing you want.
