From the full market to a defensible shortlist

Narrow the field, then pin plans to study in detail. Want one firm’s full range? Open its dossier.

Step 1 / narrow the field

Filter the plan universe

103 of 103 match

Filter on every dimension we track, grouped below. Open a group to refine it. A numeric filter only excludes a plan when its value is genuinely parseable and fails — plans with unverified or unstated figures still show, they just can’t win a highlight.

Methods: Rise (3.5%), Crypto USDT/USDC/ETH/LTC ($1,500/withdrawal cap, 3.5%), Bank Transfer (3.5% + bank fees), Hub Credits (no fee, for buying accounts only)

Funded consistency rule	No standing consistency rule on the funded FTMO Account beyond the Best Day Rule. The Best Day Rule (best single day ≤ 50% of total Positive Days' Profit) is payout-gated, not account-gated — exceeding it holds the payout request until additional positive days dilute the ratio; it does NOT breach. (On the 1-Step product the Best Day Rule applies in both challenge and funded phases; 2-Step shows no Best Day Rule.)	Best Day Rule on funded/instant accounts — no single trading day may exceed 15–20% of total cycle profit (exact cap depends on account/program). SOFT: violating it only delays the payout (account stays active); not applied during evaluation phases.	Express Funded Account (XFA) payout uses a consistency rule — largest single day must not exceed 40% of total net profit (Consistency payout path). The Combine eval uses a 50% best-day-vs-profit-target rule.	None — The5ers' High Stakes program has no fixed profit-consistency cap on funded accounts (the gating mechanisms are minimum profitable days, the 30-day inactivity rule, and prohibited-practice rules). Bootcamp scales on every 5% target rather than a consistency cap.
Profit-split scaling	Yes. 1-Step funded = 90% from the start. 2-Step funded = starts 80%, scales to 90% via the Scaling Plan. Scaling Plan: +25% balance every qualifying 4-month cycle (≥4 months active, ≥10% total net profit in window, ≥2 rewards processed, positive balance), cap $2,000,000; split rises 80%→90%.	Flat 99% split across all sizes/programs — does NOT scale up; it is already the firm's top split.	90% trader / 10% Topstep up to the payout cap (XFA). Traders who joined before Jan 12, 2026 keep 100% of first $10,000 lifetime profit, then 90/10. Live Funded Account (after 30 winning days) payouts uncapped.	Yes — split scales as the account grows. High Stakes: ~80% at $2.5K–$150K → ~85% at $175K–$200K → ~90% at $250K–$300K → 100% (to trader) plus fixed cash payouts ($4,000–$10,000) at $350K+, scaling to $500,000. Hyper Growth: 75% up to $300K → 80% at $350K+ → up to 80–100% at $400K+ (growth to $4,000,000). Bootcamp Funded Trader: up to 100%.
Refundable fee	2-Step — entry fee IS refunded, paid with the first Reward withdrawal via the original payment method (one fee covers both stages). 1-Step — entry fee is NOT refunded.	No fee refund. Instead, a bonus of 200% of the original Challenge fee is added to the payout balance AFTER the 3rd successful payout (must be requested manually; not automatic). Applies to Challenge programs only (Ash, Thunderbolt, Phoenix, Astral, Obsidian, Eon), NOT Instant. (Some sources also cite a 5% bonus on first funded payout.)	Standard path has a one-time activation fee on funding; 'No Activation Fee' path available (higher monthly, no activation cost). Monthly Combine fee is non-refundable.	Yes — 70% of the refundable fee is returned with the first payout, provided ≥$150 profit generated and the account active ≥14 days. The 70% applies only to the portion paid with external funds (not Hub Credit).
Payment methods (to buy)	Credit/debit card, bank wire transfer, crypto (BTC, ETH, LTC, USDC ERC20, USDT TRC20), plus Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal, Skrill, and processors Checkout.com / Confirmo / LetKnow Pay / Nuvei. Bank transfer unavailable in some regions (e.g. Venezuela, Cuba, Sudan, Ukraine).	Card (Visa/Mastercard) and crypto are the standard checkout options; crypto-funded accounts get a reduced payout fee (2.49% vs 30%), indicating crypto is a first-class purchase method. Full method list not enumerated on official help pages.verify	Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover. PayPal not supported; gift cards and pre-paid cards not accepted.	Credit/debit card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal, bank transfer, and crypto (USDT via TRON/Solana/BNB/Arbitrum; USDC via Ethereum/Solana/Arbitrum; TRX; USDG; ETH). The5ers hub credit can also be applied at checkout.
Time limit	Unlimited time for both evaluation phases (trade at your own pace). 2-Step requires a minimum of 4 trading days per phase; 1-Step has no minimum-days requirement.	No evaluation time limit (min trading days not required on most programs). Exceptions are the time-boxed Instant variants: Supernova = 24h session, Hypernova = 4h session.	No time limit to pass the Combine (can pass in as few as 2 trading days; subscription runs until passed or cancelled).	Unlimited time to complete all programs (High Stakes, Hyper Growth, Bootcamp) — the only timing gate is the 30-day inactivity expiry. Min trading days: High Stakes 3 profitable days (≥+0.5% each).
Payout frequency	On-demand after the first reward — the FTMO Account runs on a flexible profit-split schedule; you choose your own payout day from the dashboard once eligible (no forced fixed cycle after the first).	On-demand once eligible — must generate ≥1% profit from initial balance before each withdrawal request (threshold resets per payout). Instant programs gate withdrawal eligibility on N profitable days (≥0.5% each).	On-demand once eligible (Express Funded Account) — no fixed cycle; requests processed during CME trading hours.	Every 14 days — withdrawals available from the dashboard on a 14-day cycle on funded High Stakes accounts.
First payout	First reward claimable on or after the 14th day from your first funded trade (you may also shift the payout day to align future cycles).	No fixed day-count on the payout-structure page; gated by the ≥1% profit threshold (Instant programs require N profitable days first). Exact first-payout timing not stated as a day count.verify	First payout requires winning days in the Express Funded Account — Standard path: 5 winning days of $150+ net P&L; Consistency path: 3 trading days with ≥1 trade.	First withdrawal 14 days after account activation (then every 14 days). Refund/withdrawal eligibility also requires ≥$150 profit and account active ≥14 days.
Minimum payout	Minimum closed profit to withdraw: $20 (bank) / $50 (crypto).	—verify	Minimum $125 per request; max per request = 50% of account balance up to the cap.	Minimum withdrawal $150 (after split). Crypto withdrawals capped at $1,500 per withdrawal.
