Topstep Current Status
At 05:10 UTC on August 4, 2026, Topstep’s official status page still showed an investigating incident titled Billing Discrepancies on Mastercard Transactions. New Dashboard displayed degraded performance, while Legacy Dashboard and TopstepX displayed operational.
Topstep’s August 2 updates said the issue involved unsettled Mastercard purchases made since June 22, 2026 and a payment-processing partner’s later retry of those transactions. Topstep clarified that Revolut was one affected card issuer, not the root cause, and said the expected final state was one settled charge per purchase. Those are Topstep’s statements about an active incident, not findings independently established by BestProps.
Topstep Steps for Affected Mastercard Users
Do not treat an investigating status as a final resolution. Keep copies of statement entries, purchase receipts, and support messages. Recheck the incident page before assuming the billing state is final.

|---|---|---|---|---|

The incident remained active at the August 4 BestProps check. | Topstep incident page |
| July 5, 2026 | Prior status check | Official Topstep record | All listed components were displayed as operational at the prior BestProps check. This row is historical and does not describe current status. | Topstep status |

| Dec. 2025 | Reported data exposure | Secondary press | Finance Magnates reported a user notice and quoted Topstep Support. BestProps has not reviewed the primary filing referenced by that report. | Finance Magnates report |

The source label matters. An official Topstep status record establishes what Topstep published at a specific time. Press coverage summarizes reporting that BestProps did not independently reproduce. Public trader discussion is discovery evidence, not proof of what happened to an account.
Topstep Platform Troubleshooting
For a trading-platform problem, Topstep’s troubleshooting page says to stop trading first. It recommends checking the official status page and, if the issue continues, contacting Trader Support with order IDs, affected account numbers, the date and time, and screenshots or a recording.
Topstep’s troubleshooting page also lists account-specific causes of rejected orders, including a breached loss limit, trading outside permitted hours, position-size limits, an inactive subscription, holiday hours, and exchange velocity logic. A rejected order is not by itself proof of a platform outage.

- BestProps has not established the cause or final resolution of the active incident.
