Regulation and trust
Blueberry runs under ASIC Australian oversight on the primary entity with SCB Bahamas covering the offshore clients. PU Prime carries ASIC on its Tier-1 entity but extends the offshore stack to FSC Mauritius and FSA Seychelles. The FCA UK has issued a public warning specifically on the PU Prime Seychelles entity, which is a structural detail traders should know. For regulator clarity on a single audited stack, Blueberry is the cleaner story.
PU Prime, the regulator footprint runs ASIC Australia licence 410681 (Tier 1), FSCA South Africa licence 52218, FSC Mauritius licence GB23202672, and FSA Seychelles licence SD050. The FCA UK has issued a public warning specifically on the Seychelles entity, which traders should know.
Blueberry Markets, by contrast, operates under ASIC Australia licence 522790 (Eightcap Pty Ltd, the Blueberry Markets execution partner), and SCB Bahamas oversight on the offshore entity. Segregated client funds at Tier-1 Australian banks (NAB, Westpac).

Spreads and commission
Both brokers run raw-spread accounts in similar ranges. Blueberry Raw posts 0.0 to 0.1 pips on EUR/USD with 7 dollars round-turn commission. PU Prime Prime / ECN posts 0.0 pips with 7 dollars round-turn. The headline raw average favours PU Prime marginally on EUR/USD, but the spread state during volatile windows is the operationally relevant test, where both brokers widen similarly.
On the headline raw account tier, PU Prime posts 0.0 pips raw (prime / ecn), 1.3 pips (standard) on EUR/USD with $7 round-turn (prime / ecn). Blueberry Markets posts 0.0 to 0.1 pips raw (raw account), 1.0 pip (standard) with $7 round-turn (raw account). Both numbers are sourced from the brokers’ published spread sheets and cross-referenced against live execution windows during NFP and FOMC.
Platforms
PU Prime’s standout platform is PU Web Trader, the proprietary browser-based stack powered by TradingView. Blueberry runs the same TradingView-native execution alongside MT4 and MT5. Neither offers cTrader. For traders specifically wanting TradingView native, both deliver equivalent execution.
PU Prime’s platform stack covers mt4, mt5, pu web trader (tradingview powered), pu prime app, while Blueberry Markets runs mt4, mt5, tradingview, blueberry app. Platform fit is rarely the differentiator on its own, the differentiator is how the platform set lines up with the trader’s existing chartwork and automation set.
Payments and withdrawals
Both brokers carry zero broker-side fees on most deposit and withdrawal methods. Blueberry’s free-over-100-dollars withdrawal rule is marginally cleaner than PU Prime’s per-method-dependent structure. PU Prime supports a broader payment-method set including FasaPay, BitWallet, and Interac (relevant for Asian and Canadian clients). Both segregate client funds.
PU Prime: Bank wire, cards, Skrill, Neteller, FasaPay, BitWallet, local transfers, Interac. No broker-side fees.
Blueberry Markets: Bank wire, cards, PayPal, Skrill, Neteller. Free withdrawals over $100. Same-day processing window.
