Balanced view
Pros & cons
Blueberry Funded
Strengths
- Broker-backed model positioning, emphasised as a trust/execution differentiator.
- Very low entry sizes available ($1.25K Instant), useful for testing the product.
- Clear daily-loss/drawdown structure with static drawdown on evaluation plans.
- Flexible payout cadence (14-day default, 7-day and on-demand options).
- States no consistency rule on listed plans and permits Martingale/grid.
Cons & open risks
- Founding year, HQ, and legal entity are not disclosed on the homepage.
- Specific trading platform names are not detailed on the homepage.
- Crypto leverage is low (1:2), which may not suit some strategies.

- Promotional pricing (40% off) obscures the standard non-promo cost.
E8 Markets
Strengths
- Highly customizable: drawdown, profit target, and split selectable at purchase on E8 One.
- Up to 100% profit split available on E8 One and E8 Classic for compliant traders.
- Broad platform choice (TradeLocker, MatchTrader, cTrader, MT5, Tradovate) across CFD and futures.

Cons & open risks
- The official homepage and help center blocked automated retrieval, so several figures are unverified.
- E8 One's daily loss is fixed at 3% — relatively tight and not customizable.
- The 40% best-day rule on the funded account can delay payouts for concentrated winning days.
- MT5 is restricted to non-US traders.
- Higher customization adds complexity; rules differ across the three programs.
Our take
Which should you choose?
Blueberry Funded rates marginally higher on our scorecard, but "better" depends on what you trade and the rules you can live within. Read each verdict, then verify the figures for your exact product before buying.
Blueberry Funded markets itself on a broker-backed model with a clear rule structure, low entry sizes, and flexible payout options. The main open questions are corporate transparency (founding/HQ) and the specific platforms behind the accounts.
E8 Markets stands out for letting traders tailor drawdown, target, and split at purchase, with a wide platform lineup spanning CFDs and futures. The flexibility adds complexity, and because the official site blocked automated access, several figures here are drawn from the help center or remain unverified.
