Unserious app with a frustrating UI
Silo Markets feels like an unfinished product. The UI is honestly a joke, and basic information that should be front and center is missing.
For example, there’s no clear way to see your daily gain/loss, which is fundamental for a trading/investing app. The overall experience feels poorly thought out and lacking the polish and functionality you’d expect from a serious financial platform.
There’s a lot of room for improvement. The app needs a much better UI, clearer portfolio analytics, and basic features like daily P&L before it can feel like a serious product.
The saving grace is the helpful team tech support that really goes above and beyond to help with whatever issue you might have when dealing with their platform.

Love the loyalty reward
points. My wife and I both moved our retirement accounts over to maximize our points! With other firms, we didn’t get offered anything…not until we initiated the transfer out. Then we were sent over to their retention dept. for some type of bonus offer. The saying “loyalty gets punished” does not apply to SiloMarket…they offer upfront ongoing points for your invested assets!

This is where the industry is heading
Why pay over a hundred per year for a managed ‘portfolio’ of ETFs when you can pay yourself for this easy task? The cash returns far outweigh the annual fee, and there’s potential for greater value as points transfer partners come onboard.

I have used Silo for the past few weeks. I have found the customer service to be helpful. Since the platform is with interactive brokers, it is secure. I am looking forward to earning points in this new way !
A completely unserious app
The app looks polished at first glance, but for a platform that is the custodian of my money, I find the overall experience surprisingly unserious.
The UI is clean and visually appealing, but it lacks basic portfolio metrics that I would expect from a modern investing platform. There’s no clear daily gain/loss, no obvious total percentage return, and not enough information to easily understand how my portfolio is actually performing.
I’ve also noticed inconsistencies with the market data presentation. The stock tickers appear to show the correct current prices, but the percentage gains/losses don’t always seem to correspond to those prices. The charts also don’t consistently appear to reflect what happened in the market during the day.
These may sound like small details, but when you’re trusting a platform with your money, accurate and transparent performance information is fundamental. A nice-looking interface isn’t enough—I need to be able to quickly understand how my investments are performing and have confidence that the numbers and charts accurately represent the market.
Silo has a good-looking foundation, but the portfolio analytics, transparency, and consistency of the displayed market data need significant improvement before I would consider the experience comparable to more established investment platforms.
