Ad Paid links & important information about these products
Ad / advertising disclosure: links marked 'Ad' are paid affiliate links - we earn a commission if you buy an evaluation through them; this can affect which firms are listed, not the terms you receive. What this page is: a factual comparison of published fees and rules, collected from at least two public sources on the date shown and cross-checked; per-field rankings are arithmetic over the tracked set (see Methodology). It is not a recommendation or opinion about whether you should buy any evaluation, and it is not financial advice. What these products are: prop-firm 'challenges' are paid evaluations on simulated accounts; any later 'funded' stage is a contractual profit share from the firm, not an investment return; most participants do not pass; fees are generally non-refundable. The firms listed are not authorised or supervised by the FMA (NZ), ASIC (AU), FCA (UK), CFTC/SEC (US) or any EU regulator, and you have no investor-compensation protection. Operated from New Zealand.

On 22 September 2026, a fresh capture of The5ers High Stakes 2-Step $5K account was taken, following the previous capture on 15 September 2026. Four published terms were flagged as changed: the challenge fee, previously recorded at 39; the funded profit split, previously recorded at 80%; the maximum leverage, previously recorded at 100; and the payout cycle, previously recorded as Bi-Weekly. The updated values for these four terms are not present in the captured record, so only the prior figures can be stated here. For someone taking the evaluation, the challenge fee is the amount paid up front to enter, the profit split sets the share of funded-account profit allocated to the trader, maximum leverage caps the position size available against account equity, and the payout cycle determines how frequently withdrawal requests can be submitted.
