While Upgrade offers many benefits and may be a good option for some borrowers, it's important to carefully consider the potential drawbacks before deciding to use their services. Some cons of using Upgrade are Higher interest rates for some customers, No co-signer option, Limited availability, Limited loan amounts and Late payment fees etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The initial application process was easy. It almost reminded me of applying for a crypto exchange. After a soft pull on my credit to qualify, the short application required me to upload an identification document, take a selfie, connect a bank account, and upload tax returns. Some people don't like that process, but it doesn't bother me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
During the application process, I received countless emails "reminding" me that I needed to take more steps to complete the application, although it told me they had everything they needed when I signed in. Finally, they called me and told me they needed me to upload my ID, which I had already done via their app. They had me email it to them this time. I received more emails and calls asking me to verify something or another we had already verified. A rep told me they had everything they needed. After a few days, nothing. I called and was again asked to verify my offer amount and was told I'd get a decision in a few more days, again. This time, I was approved after a day. Fast forward, I decided to make a test transfer to my bank account and a test purchase as a credit card, and both failed. I called a couple more times and was told a couple more times to verify my offer amount. After verifying both times, I was told the account should work now. Only after the second such phone call was it true. I'm all for security and verification, which I understand sometimes involves redundancy. However, I was left in the dark a few times until I called to get things moving again. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The customer service team is on it! They called me right away and we're ready to help me set up an account. I uploaded the required documents in a few days. They were super chill when I said I was busy too and politely gave me a number to call back. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The app is buggy and doesn't really work. It took me about 15 tries to get the documents they wanted--pretty standard stuff my photo ID--for the rewards checking account. It finally accepted them but every time I log in now it says I need to upload more documents but whenever I go to the screen to do that it shows I've already uploaded them. So I'm disappointed and wondering what's up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Two aspects of the software stand out from the competition: First, the program's functionality and second, how easy it is to use. When I compare this software to others I have used in the past; you can do more with this than you can do with most. And for people who are not computer savvy, this software is quite simple.

Even though it is pretty simple to use, there was one occasion when I needed help and tried to reach out to customer service/technical support but couldn't. A suggestion for the company would be to offer more support options: telephone, email, and chat support. Offering those three support options would make a better experience for everyone who used it.

I feel like some time I've had some freezes. My wife uses this and it's been hard to use becasue of this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I really like the UI for the website. It is very intuitive and informative including the tabs on the left side to monitor credit health, score simulator, etc. The score simulator section has different options to check how the score would be affected by doing multiple things like credit balance changes, credit limit changes, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I am not sure why but the credit alerts section is empty. The credit health insights section is taking me to generic credit health articles but I was expecting it to provide personalized insights. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's easy to use and super easy to draw money from your credit card to your bank account. It's fast, and the money shows up within a couple of days. Upgrade is user-friendly, and you can set up autopay. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
So far, I haven't found anything that I dislike about Upgrade. I guess if I had to say anything negative would be the emails I receive wanting me to apply for loans. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The application and approval process was quick and easy!! The outlined steps were clear and concise, and I got approved for the amount I requested. I was highly pleased with the process and the affordable interest fee. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There wasn't anything I didn't really like about the process; the issue was on my end because I had to unfreeze my credit report in order to obtain my approval which slightly delayed the process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Low-interest rate, high account balance. This line of credit is perfect if you need cash advances or somewhere to charge a large amount with the swipe of a card. Good for extending operational funds, or just making a large purchase. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There really isn't anything to dislike. It's a line of credit, so if you don't like racking up credit-type debt, then this may not be the solution for you. For everyone else, highly recommend. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't have a good recommendation because of opening. the account was very hard, i had to email documents and upload many times documents and the process was awful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I hated the amount of time it took to open the account, plus they have you do a credit verification over the phone, which has a lot of private information that i felt uncofofortable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
