Toreko:
So waiting for approval and waiting for an approved payment to arrive are different?
USK:
Yes. Identifying the stage you are waiting at also makes it easier to explain the situation to support.

The wait, the uncertainty, and what support told me.

Hi, USK here.

The Blueberry Funded payout I requested on October 29 was still showing “Pending” on November 10. In this case, that meant the request was still awaiting approval.

It was the first time I had waited this long for approval itself.

“Why hasn’t it been approved?” “Could I have broken a trading rule without realizing it?”

USK:
Those thoughts were on my mind.

I contacted support, the relevant team checked the request, and I confirmed its approval later on November 10. Approval and receipt of the money are separate stages, though. This article records what happened up to approval.

1. Current status: approved, receipt unconfirmed

Confirmed as of November 10, 2026

Approved. Awaiting payment. Receipt of the funds is still unconfirmed.

  • October 29: requested USD 230 before the profit split.
  • November 10: confirmed approval. USD 184 after the profit split.

Dates are in Japan time. USD 184 is not presented as money already received.

In my previous experience with Blueberry Funded, requests had often been approved in around two to three business days, or otherwise relatively quickly. That is my personal experience, not a processing-time guarantee from the firm.

I have also previously waited about two weeks between approval and receiving funds through Rise.

This time was different: the request remained Pending before it reached the payment stage. The payment method selected for this request was USDC-ERC20. I mention Rise only when describing my past experience.

2. What happened from request to approval

  • October 29: I submitted the request. The requested profit was USD 230. The amount after the profit split was USD 184.
  • November 10: it was still Pending. I contacted live support because approval was taking longer than I had experienced before.
  • That day: the case was escalated. Miracle told me that the case had been escalated to the relevant department and that I would receive an email response within 72 hours.
  • That day: I confirmed approval. The request then moved to the payment-waiting stage. I had not confirmed receipt when checking the facts for this article.
Support escalated the case and gave a 72-hour response estimate. This was not a deadline for approval or receipt.

The 72 hours referred to a response to the inquiry. It was not a promise of approval or receipt within 72 hours.

USD 184 is the amount after the profit split. I am not presenting it as money already received. A payout certificate by itself does not establish that the payment has arrived.

Support confirmed approval, the payment queue and that no new request was needed. This does not confirm receipt.

3. What support told me

Pablo explained the situation on November 10. These were individual replies to my inquiry, not a published general rule applying to every Blueberry Funded customer.

My request was outside the usual expected timeframe

Pablo explained that my request was outside the timeframe the team usually expected, and that my inquiry allowed the team to check its status, after which it was approved.

He also said:

“That’s right—the fact that your application remained pending for several days was a special case.”

An individual reply describing this request remaining Pending as a special case.
An individual reply describing this request remaining Pending as a special case. Original excerpt with account details and surrounding UI excluded.

What I can establish is the sequence: I contacted support, the team checked the request, and approval followed. I cannot establish what would have happened if I had not contacted them.

Payment infrastructure was also being upgraded

When explaining recent payment processing, Pablo said that Blueberry Funded was upgrading payment infrastructure for longer-term efficiency and better forecasting, and that short-term delays could occur.

However, I have not confirmed that this upgrade directly caused my approval delay. I am keeping those points separate.

The approval email also referred to the payment infrastructure update and advised that some reward processing could take 7–14 business days. The starting point for that period has not been clearly confirmed, so I am not calculating a payment date or presenting it as a firm deadline for my request.

Contacting support was appropriate

I also asked whether contacting support was appropriate when approval was taking longer than usual.

“You did the right thing by contacting us👍”

Looking back, part of me thinks, “I should have asked sooner!” But my experience does not mean that contacting support guarantees approval for anyone else.

4. What to check if your request remains Pending

A longer-than-usual wait can be unsettling. I would first gather the following information before asking support to check the status:

  1. When did you apply? Check the confirmation email and request history.
  2. What is the current status? Distinguish awaiting approval from approved and awaiting payment.
  3. Can support identify the request? Have the request reference, account details, amount and chosen payment method ready for the official support channel.
  4. Have you received any instructions? Check email and dashboard notifications for requests for information or other updates.
  5. What do you need to know? Ask about the current processing stage, anything required from you, and the expected response or processing timeframe.

There is no need to publish account numbers or email addresses on social media. Share the necessary information only through the official support channel.

If you have already received a response or instructions about a waiting period, check those too. The post-approval reply in my case said that the request was in the payment queue and that no new request was needed. Avoid submitting duplicates or confusing an approval wait with a payment wait.

You can find general guidance through the official Blueberry Funded Help Center. Do not assume that a timeframe quoted for one request applies to every account or payment method.

5. Frequently asked questions

Q

Does approval mean the money has arrived?

A

No. My request was approved on November 10, but receipt remains unconfirmed. The USD 184 payout certificate is not proof of receipt.

Q

Did support promise payment within 72 hours?

A

No. The 72 hours referred to an email response to my inquiry, not a guarantee of approval or payment.

Q

Should I submit another request after approval?

A

The reply for my request said it was in the payment queue and no new request was needed. Follow the instructions for your own request rather than treating this individual reply as a general rule.

Conclusion: I appreciate the response without dismissing the delay

USK:
I appreciate that the team checked the request after I contacted them and handled the approval.

Still, the better outcome would be for a long approval delay not to happen in the first place, or for the reason and expected timeframe to be clear when it does. The eventual response does not make the delay itself unimportant.

I want to document problems I actually encounter, as well as positive experiences and the response I receive.

My practical takeaway is this: if a request stays Pending longer than usual and you are concerned, gathering the facts and asking official support to check its status is an option.

My request was approved on November 10. Receipt of the money remains unconfirmed. That is the extent of what I can report about this case so far.

  • USK’s approval email, payout certificate and request status checked on November 10, 2026. The certificate’s USD 184 figure is the amount after the profit split, not proof of receipt.

  • The previous two-to-three-business-day approval experience and the roughly two-week wait for a past Rise payment are USK’s personal recollections.
  • Dates follow USK’s records in Japan time. I have not independently converted the firm’s business-day definition into a payment deadline.

This one case does not establish widespread delays, stricter reviews or an increase in rule breaches. It also does not guarantee future approvals or payments.
