GetLeveraged (getleveraged.com) was founded by Tal Fromchenko and launched in early 2025. The company operates through GetLeveraged Ltd, registered in Saint Lucia (2025-00808), with a head office listed at Avenue Omonoias 13, Limassol 3052, Cyprus. They offer cheap "Turbo" challenges starting at $8.88, claim 12-24 hour payouts, and carry a 4.8 Trustpilot score.
Dig deeper and the picture changes.
The $25,000 Non-Disparagement Clause
GetLeveraged's terms include a clause requiring traders to pay $25,000 in "liquidated damages" if they post negative or disparaging content about the company. This means every trader who signs up is legally threatened with a five-figure penalty for writing an honest negative review.
This single clause makes their 4.8 Trustpilot rating meaningless. When traders face $25K in damages for posting a 1-star review, positive scores are inflated by design. You are not seeing genuine sentiment — you are seeing suppressed feedback.
Payout Rejection Pattern
Multiple traders report the same experience: pass the challenge, trade profitably on the funded account, request a payout — and get rejected one day before the scheduled payout date. The rejection reasons include:
One trader reported two separate accounts — $5,000 profit on one, $2,000 on another — both denied using the same pattern: rejection arrives the day before payout.
Offshore Registration
GetLeveraged Ltd is registered in Saint Lucia — a common jurisdiction for entities seeking minimal regulatory oversight. The Cyprus office address provides a European presence but Saint Lucia registration means no meaningful financial regulation applies to the prop firm entity.
Our Assessment
The combination of suppressed reviews + payout denials + offshore registration follows a pattern we've seen before in prop firms that prioritize challenge fee collection over trader payouts. The non-disparagement clause is the most telling signal — legitimate firms don't need to legally silence their customers.
Non-Disparagement Clause: GetLeveraged's terms of service include a $25,000 "liquidated damages" clause triggered by negative or disparaging content posted by traders. This was flagged by traders in Trustpilot reviews and third-party review sites.
Trustpilot: 4.8/5 from ~800 reviews. However, the reliability of this score is compromised by the non-disparagement clause — traders risk $25K in penalties for posting negative reviews.
Payout Denial Reports: Multiple Trustpilot reviewers document payout rejections on the day before scheduled payouts, with reasons citing KYC "irregularities" on accounts that had already been verified. One trader documented two separate accounts ($5K and $2K profits) both denied.
