I wanted to transfer my portfolio from another broker to backerinvestmentag.com. They said they do not accept in-kind transfers for my asset type. I had to sell, withdraw, deposit, and rebuy - incurring taxes and spread costs. They did not tell me this before I signed up.
Pros: Great customer service|Risk management tools|Transparent fees
Cons: Would like more payment methods
After for just over a year with backerinvestmentag.com, I can only describe the experience as death by a thousand cuts. No single issue was catastrophic, but the constant stream of small problems, slow responses, and missing features wore me down until I finally left.
Pros: Professional team|Detailed reporting|Educational resources|Market news feed
Cons: Charting tools need more indicators
After using backerinvestmentag.com for close to eighteen months, I decided to move my account elsewhere. The platform was unreliable, withdrawals took an unreasonable amount of time, and I could never get a straight answer from customer service. Frustrating experience overall.
Pros: Segregated accounts|Detailed reporting
Cons: No integrated tax optimization
Several red flags with backerinvestmentag.com: (1) They promise unrealistically high returns, (2) They're not registered with Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority, (3) Their contact information is vague, (4) They pressure you to deposit quickly. I recommend everyone do thorough due diligence before investing with any company.
Cons: Flagged by Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority|Cannot verify credentials
The platform itself is okay, but the customer service at backerinvestmentag.com is truly awful. I waited weeks for a response to a simple inquiry. When they did respond, it felt like a generic template that did not address my specific issue at all.
Pros: Clear documentation|Demo account available|Easy to use platform|Dedicated account manager
Cons: Inactivity fee applies after 12 months
What really bothers me about backerinvestmentag.com is the disconnect between their marketing and reality. They position themselves as a premium service but deliver a below-average experience. Found them after attending a webinar they hosted and I fell for the polished exterior. Never again.
Pros: Competitive fees|Copy trading available|Easy withdrawals
Cons: Could offer more webinars
I joined backerinvestmentag.com after a friend recommended them and from the start, things felt off. The signup process collected far more personal information than necessary, the verification took unreasonably long, and when I finally got access, the platform was nothing like what was advertised.
Pros: Market news feed|Fast support response
Cons: Onboarding videos are outdated|Desktop app not available on Linux
backerinvestmentag.com had an outage that lasted several hours during a major market event. Not only did they fail to prevent it, but they also failed to communicate what was happening. We were left in the dark while our investments were at risk.
Pros: No hidden fees|Quick verification|Portfolio tracking tools|Smooth onboarding
Cons: Website design could be more modern
I had a dispute with backerinvestmentag.com and went to their complaints process. They have an internal team that just defends the company. Then they said I could go to an ombudsman - but the ombudsman they use is industry-funded and rarely rules for the client. The system is rigged.
Pros: Educational resources|Responsive team|Good analytical tools|Fast execution
Cons: Some tools only available on higher tiers
If you are reading this considering backerinvestmentag.com - run. I wish I had read more negative reviews after reading several online reviews. I thought the positive ones were real. Maybe some are. My experience over since last summer has been so bad I feel obligated to warn others. Do not make my mistake.
Pros: Multiple order types|Good analytical tools
Cons: Withdrawal takes 1-2 business days|Wish they had more educational resources
