Quick Verdict
Prime Yield Assets Safety Assessment
| Safety Metric | Status | What To Do |
|---|---|---|
| Regulatory Status | Unregulated – despite claiming to be regulated by the SEC and a member of IIROC and CIPF | Don’t expect access to a statutory investor compensation scheme or safeguards like ID checks and protected client money |
| Marketing | Misleading – Claims “153,000 investments”, “$5 billion+ in assets,” and “11 industry awards” which could not be verified, and domain only went live in April 2026, and promises “guaranteed income” of 3 % to 6% a day | Treat claims as suspicious marketing not verified facts |
| Corporate Transparency | Low – No named owners or managers, and a UK company number that doesn’t exist | Question why the firm and its management choose to remain anonymous unlike most credible investment providers |
| Overall risk | Blacklisted – higher-risk than longer-established, well-regulated investment firms | Consider alternatives |

Prime Yield Assets’ License Claims Checked
A license means a government regulator oversees a firm and how it manages your money. Prime Yield Assets lists licenses from five organizations, but none are genuine.
| Regulator or register | What Prime Yield Assets claims | What I found |
|---|---|---|
| US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) | ”Regulated by” and “a member of” the SEC | The SEC registers firms but has no members, and Prime Yield Assets gives no SEC number to look up on Investor.gov. |
| IIROC (Canada) | A member | IIROC doesn’t exist any more. It merged into a new regulator, called CIRO since 1 June 2023. |
| Canadian Investor Protection Fund (CIPF) | A member | Prime Yield Assets isn’t on CIPF’s member list. CIPF also doesn’t protect crypto, and six of the eight payment methods in Prime Yield’s terms are crypto. |
| The Financial Commission | A member | A private complaints service, not a regulator. The badge just links back to Prime Yield’s homepage. |
| Companies House (UK) | Bluegate Investments LTD, number R2335344 | None of the prefixes in the Companies House guide starts with “R2”. The UK’s Bluegate Investments Limited is an Amersham property letting firm, closed down on 16 December 2025. |
The FCA’s Warning About Prime Yield Assets
The FCA, which is the UK’s financial regulator, says Prime Yield Assets is not authorized and may be targeting people in the UK. Its warning page lists “primeyieldassets.com” and the same Huish Champflower, Taunton address found on the firm’s contact page.
The FCA also says that having a UK address does not prove anything, since scam firms sometimes use someone else’s details. If you deal with an unauthorized firm, you cannot complain to the Financial Ombudsman Service or claim from the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS). IOSCO, which connects regulators worldwide, also shared the warning.

Check Prime Yield Assets With Your Own Regulator
Prime Yield Assets’ legal page says it has offices in the UK, US, Australia, and Canada. It should appear on the official lists of approved firms in those countries. Search for “Prime Yield Assets” on the register for your country. Each regulator’s name links to our guide to the brokers it licenses.
| Where you live | Regulator | Check for a licence | Check for warnings |
|---|---|---|---|
| Anywhere | IOSCO | Not a licensing body | I-SCAN |
| United Kingdom | FCA | Firm Checker | Warning List |
| United States | SEC and CFTC | Investor.gov and NFA BASIC | - |
| Canada | CIRO | National Registration Search | |
| Australia | ASIC | Professional Registers Search | Investor alert list |
Just because there is no warning does not mean a firm is safe. IOSCO also advises you to check for a license.

Prime Yield Assets’ Investment Plans Explained
Prime Yield Assets does not let you trade. Instead, it sells plans that promise a fixed profit of 3% to 6% every day. Its terms page calls this “guaranteed income after a certain period of time.”
I turned the four crypto plans on its plans page into dollars. The site never says how long a plan lasts, so the last column divides the total profit by the daily rate.
The real estate and crude oil plans also promise 3% to 6% a day, but only 10% to 14% in total. At 3% a day, you would reach that total in just four days.
| Plan | Deposit range | Daily profit | Total profit | Profit on the minimum deposit | Days implied |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Beginner | $300 to $5,000 | 3% | 135% | $405 on $300 | About 45 |
| Basic | $5,100 to $20,000 | 4% | 225% | $11,475 on $5,100 | About 56 |
| Advanced | $20,100 to $50,000 | 5% | 486% | $97,686 on $20,100 | About 97 |
| Professional | $50,100 to $500,000 | 6% | 5,760% | $2,885,760 on $50,100 | About 960 |
Investment plans
The SEC’s Ponzi scheme guide says you should be very suspicious of anything “guaranteed”. A Ponzi Scheme pays earlier investors with money from newer investors, and Prime Yield Assets’ referral scheme works the same way. It pays you 10% of deposits from people you invite, plus 3%, 2%, and 1% from three levels below them. You do not need to invest to earn this.
Where Prime Yield Assets’ Own Pages Disagree
Prime Yield Assets’ own pages disagree on basic facts.
| Topic | One page says | Another page says |
|---|---|---|
| Withdrawals | Paid “immediately” (FAQ) | Within 48 hours (terms) or weekly (plans) |
| How long it’s been running | Investors have been with it “for over seven years” (homepage) | A counter showing 2,288 days, about 6.3 years, and staff with “over 30 years” of experience (legal page) |
| Offices | One address in Huish Champflower, near Taunton (contact page) | Offices in the US, Australia and Canada (legal page) |
| Size | 153,000 investments and more than $5 billion managed (about page) | Stats counters at the bottom of every page showing $65,160,817 deposited in total, about 1.3 % of $5 billion |
Some pages still have unfinished text from a website template. The privacy policy says “(insert providers name/s here)”, the phone number is just “+primeyieldassets”, and the footer’s “What We Offers” link leads to an error page.
Privacy policy
I asked Prime Yield Assets how a withdrawal works and when it gets paid using the live chat messaging service inside the platform, but received an automated reply asking me to email the company instead (surprising given that they claim “reply immediately”).

Opinion From Direct Testing
I explored Prime Yield Assets’ website as a new investor might. The site provides almost no information about what happens to your money after you deposit it.
The ‘Create Account’ button opens a separate sign-up page with a different design. It asks for a username, your name, email, phone number, password, and country, plus an optional referral ID. It doesn’t ask for your date of birth, home address, or ID, even though regulated firms must verify your identity before taking your money.
The homepage mentions “over 300 trading experts” and AI-powered software, but it does not name anyone or show a trading platform. The ‘Trade An Asset’ and ‘Build A Portfolio’ buttons both link only to the sign-up page.
I opened a Prime Yield Assets account to see what a new investor gets after signing up. The dashboard added a $10 “Bonus” right away, but the cheapest plan starts at $300, so the bonus mostly pushes you to deposit another $290.
Dashboard
The ‘Trading Plans’ page has four tiers, and each one lasts seven days. Each plan lists the same minimum and maximum return, so the profit is fixed no matter what the markets do. That’s 21% a week on Beginner and 42% on Professional, and none of the regulated brokers I’ve tested guarantees any return. The site’s own numbers don’t match either. The homepage card for the Professional plan claims a “Total Profit” of 5760%, and the Beginner plan’s quick-select buttons include $100 and $250, both below its own $300 minimum.
You can only deposit and withdraw in crypto. Both pages offer the same eight options (Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, BNB, USDT on ERC20 or TRC20, and USDC on Ethereum or Solana), with no card, bank, or e-wallet, so you can’t charge back a payment. I could open the deposit page before uploading any ID. The KYC form asks only for an ID document (e.g., driver’s license, international passport, or any government-approved document), with no proof of address.
The withdrawal page lists 0% fees, “Instant” processing on seven of the eight methods, minimums of $10 to $100 and maximums of up to $100,000,000. That’s despite the largest plan accepting no more than $500,000, and the homepage plan cards saying withdrawals are “Weekly.”
The ‘Managed Accounts’ section worried me most. It sells a subscription service it calls “The Best Profitable Trading Option,” then shows a badly-integrated MetaTrader 4 terminal asking for your trading account login and password, with “Save password” ticked by default. Above that, a “My Trading Accounts” table even has an “Account Password” column. If you give a third party your broker login, they get full control of that account.
Put together, the fixed daily returns, crypto-only payments, transfers between users, and referral payouts look like a high-yield investment program (HYIP), not a broker. A real investment firm explains what it does with your money before you invest. Prime Yield Assets only tells you how much it promises to pay back.
What Prime Yield Assets Users Say
I could not find any independent reviews of Prime Yield Assets, only testimonials on its own homepage.

| Prime Yield Assets’ homepage | Not rated | 23 testimonials | All 23 use the same stock photo, and “Beverly” appears twice. |
User testimonials
If You’ve Already Sent Prime Yield Assets Money
- Act quickly. The longer your money stays with an unlicensed firm, the harder it is to trace.
- Stop making payments. Do not send any “fee”, “tax”, or top-up that Prime Yield Assets says you need before you can withdraw.
- Do not recruit anyone to try to win your money back. The referral bonus comes from other people’s deposits, so you would be passing your loss on.
- Contact your bank, card provider, or payment service on the same day. Prime Yield’s terms only accept crypto, Payeer, and
Perfect Money, and a bank cannot reverse crypto once it leaves your wallet. For example, the UK’s scam refund rules do not cover payments to an account you control, such as a crypto account in your own name. - Save your evidence. Make sure to include screenshots of your balance, emails, live chat messages, and crypto transaction
IDs (the reference code for each transfer). - Report it to your country’s financial regulator and the police. Our guide to reporting broker scams lists contacts by country.
- Ignore recovery offers. Anyone who promises to get your money back for an upfront fee is very likely running a
recovery trading scam.
Bottom Line
Every check I did on Prime Yield Assets was negative, so I would stay far away, no matter how much you plan to invest. As a rule, avoid any website that claims your money will grow every single day. In my assessment, its marketing and offering are full of safety red flags that mean I wouldn’t trust it with my money.
