Two incoming payments from TopstepTrader LLC sent on 22 July have been stuck in "Incoming payment paused" due to Wise's due diligence review.

$3,440.87 – Paused

$1,463.87 – Paused

However, two newer payments sent on 29 July were processed successfully.

Topstep confirmed the payments were sent and says Wise is holding the 22 July transfers. Wise support says the review is with their internal team and there's no ETA.

Has anyone else had older payments stuck while newer ones went through?

How long did the review take?

Sharing a recent milestone with the community.

I had 4 Topstep payouts approved within my first 11 days as an Express Funded Trader, totaling $8,146.

⏳ Payout 1: $3,442 — Pending

⏳ Payout 2: $1,465 — Pending

✅ Payout 3: $2,316 — Received

✅ Payout 4: $923 — Received

Total approved payouts: $8,146

I'm trading from India. The first two payouts are still pending due to the ongoing Wise payout issue, while the latest two were received successfully. Topstep has confirmed they're working with Wise to resolve the issue.

Despite the delay, I'm grateful to have reached this milestone. Staying disciplined, managing risk, and following my trading plan have made all the difference.

Hopefully the remaining two payouts will be resolved soon. Wishing everyone consistency and success on their trading journey! 💪📈

Hi everyone,

I'm from India and requested my first Topstep payout last Tuesday, but it still hasn't reached my bank account.

Because of this delay, I haven't requested my second payout yet, as I want to make sure the first one is received before submitting another request.

Is this kind of delay normal for payouts to India?

How long did it take for your first payout to arrive?

Thanks in advance!

Today, I requested my first payout from Topstep, and I'm incredibly grateful.

I'm completely new to prop trading and joined Topstep just about a month ago. I never imagined I'd be celebrating my first payout this soon.

This journey has been full of lessons. Before discovering prop trading, I had experienced significant losses in the markets and went through a lot of financial stress. Joining Topstep gave me a chance to start fresh with a strong focus on discipline, risk management, and consistency.

This payout isn't just about the money—it's proof that following a trading plan, managing risk, and staying patient really works.

A heartfelt thank you to the entire Topstep team for building such an amazing platform.

A special thank you to the Topstep coaches. Your live coaching sessions, market analysis, trade reviews, and constant encouragement have helped me improve as a trader in a very short time. The education and support have been invaluable.

To everyone who is just starting or still working through the Combine or XFA:

Trust the process.

Protect your capital.

Stay disciplined.

Focus on consistency rather than quick profits.

If someone who was completely new to prop firms just a month ago can reach their first payout, so can you.

Thank you again, Topstep, the incredible coaches, and this amazing community. Looking forward to many more milestones! 🚀📈
