An exercise in frustration

The reporting at CARFIS is laughably bad. Tax documents are inaccurate, transaction histories have gaps, and trying to export data for your accountant is a nightmare. For a financial platform, getting the numbers right should be the bare minimum.

Pros: Good analytical tools|API access

Cons: Limited cryptocurrency options|Search feature is basic

Not fit for purpose

CARFIS 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: Economic calendar|Professional team|Reliable uptime

Cons: Limited ETF selection|Wish they had more educational resources

Do yourself a favor and skip CARFIS

CARFIS offers copy trading. I copied a top trader. The copy trades often executed at worse prices than the original. When I asked why they said it was due to latency and liquidity. So the feature is broken or they are skimming. Either way I stopped using it.

Pros: No hidden fees|Smooth onboarding

Cons: Website design could be more modern|Live chat only during business hours

After using CARFIS for a couple of months now, 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: Two-factor authentication|Easy withdrawals|Professional team|Easy to use platform

Cons: Cannot customize dashboard fully

No investor compensation scheme

I closed a profitable position at CARFIS and the profit was not credited for 5 days. Support said it was a settlement delay. When it finally arrived it was less than the amount shown on the platform. They could not explain the difference. I have moved my account.

Pros: Risk management tools|API access|Wide product range

Cons: Cannot customize dashboard fully

This company appears on the IOSCO I-SCAN international warnings list. Over 68 financial regulators worldwide contribute to this database. While being listed doesn't automatically mean fraud, it's a significant red flag that potential investors should take seriously. Do your research thoroughly.

Cons: Flagged by international regulators|Due diligence required

Email support takes 2 weeks

I joined CARFIS after a family member had a good experience 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: Quick verification|Fast deposits|Regular updates

Cons: Research section could be deeper

Where do I even begin

If you are reading this considering CARFIS - run. I wish I had read more negative reviews after seeing their ad online. I thought the positive ones were real. Maybe some are. My experience over for over three years has been so bad I feel obligated to warn others. Do not make my mistake.

Pros: Fast support response|Wide product range

Cons: Limited cryptocurrency options

Closure fee on top of everything

Where do I even begin with CARFIS? since last summer of broken promises, unanswered tickets, and a platform that feels like it was built in 2010. They spend more on marketing than on actually improving their service. Stay away from this company.

Pros: API access|Portfolio tracking tools|Multi-currency support|Full transparency

Cons: Limited cryptocurrency options

Checked with regulators - they're not licensed

Several red flags with CARFIS: (1) They promise unrealistically high returns, (2) They're not registered with Ontario Securities Commission, (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: Unauthorized firm|Found in IOSCO warnings database
