same-academy.com has been flagged by AMF (France) for "Unauthorised". Category: Produits_dérivés_sur_crypto-actifs This company appears in our regulatory warnings database. Always verify with official regulatory sources before investing or doing business with this firm. Website domain: same-academy.com.
Do not believe the bonus offer from same-academy.com. The turnover requirement is designed so you can never withdraw. I learned the hard way. I deposited through word of mouth in my investment club and the bonus terms were buried in pages of small print. My fault for not reading but their design is predatory.
Pros: Market news feed|Comprehensive tools|Economic calendar
Cons: Help articles are sometimes vague
Customer support at same-academy.com seems to be run by people who have never used the platform. Every time I call with an issue, I end up explaining how their own system works before they can help me. It would be funny if my money was not involved.
Pros: Reliable uptime|Detailed reporting|Tax reports included|Multiple order types
Cons: Desktop app not available on Linux|Limited cryptocurrency options
I had high hopes for same-academy.com from a blog post comparing services, but my experience has been disappointing. Customer support is slow, the platform has frequent issues, and their fee structure is not as transparent as advertised. I am actively looking for alternatives now.
Pros: Social trading features|Easy to use platform|Clean UI
Cons: Limited cryptocurrency options
The spread at same-academy.com is not what they advertise. During volatile markets it widens so much that you lose before the trade even starts. I found them after a family member had a good experience and initially thought the platform was good - until I started trading seriously.
Pros: Automated trading options|Good analytical tools|Dedicated account manager|Multiple order types
Cons: Withdrawal takes 1-2 business days|No integrated tax optimization
same-academy.com changed their fee structure with one month notice. What was a flat fee became a percentage. For my account size it meant a huge increase. When I objected they said I could leave. So I am leaving and writing this review.
Pros: Transparent fees|Instant funding|Quick verification
Cons: No crypto staking|Limited ETF selection
