FundedFX Review 2026: Plans, Rules, and How It Compares
FundedFX is a Canada-based prop trading evaluation firm running two programs on the Match Trader platform. Its TrustPilot profile lists Canada as the company location and was claimed in March 2025, and the firm row on PropFirmMap carries an established date of 16 April 2025. The product is a simulated-capital evaluation: accounts start at $10,000 and run to $200,000, with the firm advertising scaling to $1,000,000 over time. Entry is $85 for a $10,000 1-Step account, and the advertised profit split starts at 80/20 and scales to 90/10 with paid add-ons. This review covers what FundedFX charges, the rules attached to each program, and how the pricing sits against three other CFD firms in the same entry-price band.
The 1-Step Phase One Challenge
The 1-Step program is a single evaluation phase. Every tier carries an 8% profit target, an 8% maximum loss, a 4% maximum daily loss, leverage up to 1:30, a 30-day trading period and a 7-day minimum trading day requirement. Once the account converts to the funded phase, the trading period becomes unlimited and the minimum trading day requirement is removed, while the 4% daily and 8% overall loss limits stay in place. FundedFX names each size tier separately: Instant, Swift, Prime, Turbo and Ignite.
| Tier | Account size | Price | Profit target | Max loss | Max daily loss |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Instant | $10K | $85 | 800 USD (8%) | 800 USD (8%) | 400 USD (4%) |
| Swift | $25K | $180 | $2 000 (8%) | $2 000 (8%) | $1 000 (4%) |
| Prime | $50K | $240 | $4 000 (8%) | $4 000 (8%) | $2 000 (4%) |
| Turbo | $100K | $475 | $8 000 (8%) | $8 000 (8%) | $4 000 (4%) |
| Ignite | $200K | $900 | $16 000 (8%) | $16 000 (8%) | $8 000 (4%) |
The Classic 2-Step Challenge
The 2-Step program splits the evaluation across two phases. Phase 1 requires an 8% profit target within 30 calendar days with a 5-day minimum trading day requirement. Phase 2 requires a 5% profit target within 60 calendar days with a 7-day minimum. The risk limits are wider than the 1-Step program: 5% maximum daily loss and 10% overall maximum loss, against the 1-Step figures of 4% and 8%. The five size tiers are named Basic, Advanced, Pro, Elite and Master, and each costs $5 to $50 more than the equivalent 1-Step tier.
| Tier | Account size | Price | Phase 1 target | Phase 2 target | Max loss | Max daily loss |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Basic | $10K | $90 | $800 (8%) | $500 (5%) | $1 000 (10%) | $500 (5%) |
| Advanced | $25K | $190 | $2 000 (8%) | $1 250 (5%) | $2 500 (10%) | $1 250 (5%) |
| Pro | $50K | $250 | $4 000 (8%) | $2 500 (5%) | $5 000 (10%) | $2 500 (5%) |
| Elite | $100K | $500 | $8 000 (8%) | $5 000 (5%) | $10 000 (10%) | $5 000 (5%) |
| Master | $200K | $950 | $16 000 (8%) | $10 000 (5%) | $20 000 (10%) | $10 000 (5%) |
Rules and trading conditions
Drawdown is static and fixed to the initial balance rather than trailing. Match Trader is the only supported platform, accessible through a web browser or the mobile app, and FundedFX charges a $2 commission per side, which is $4 per round trip. Over 500 instruments are listed across Forex, Indices, Crypto and Commodities.
News trading is permitted on both challenge and funded accounts, but a trade opened or closed within two minutes of a scheduled news release must stay open for at least two full minutes to count. Weekend holding is not allowed on any account type, and all positions must be closed before the market closes on Friday. A stop-loss is not required on any trade. The firm states that scalping, hedging within the same account, swing trading, martingale and grid approaches are all accommodated within its standard rules.
Funded traders are paid every 14 days. An on-demand payout is also available, subject to two conditions FundedFX publishes: no single trading day may account for more than 30% of total profit on the account, and at least 2% of gross profits must remain in the account after the payout is processed. Those conditions apply only to on-demand payouts and do not affect the bi-weekly schedule. The scaling plan increases the simulated balance by 25% every 90 days for accounts showing at least 12% simulated profit within the period. A range of paid add-ons adjusts the default rules: Profit Plus 5 raises the split from 80% to 85% for a 25% extra fee and Profit Plus 10 raises it to 90% for a 30% extra fee, while FlexiShield, BufferZone and DeepGuard widen the daily and overall loss limits, and FastTrack and Express Entry reduce the minimum trading day requirements.
The advertised 90% profit split is not the default. FundedFX states the funded split starts at 80/20 and reaches 90/10 only through the paid Profit Plus 10 add-on, which costs a 30% extra fee on the challenge price. Price the add-on into the entry cost if the split is what you are buying.
Pros
- Static drawdown fixed to the initial balance, rather than a trailing drawdown that follows account equity upward.
- No stop-loss requirement, and the firm states scalping, hedging, martingale and grid strategies are permitted within its standard rules.
- The funded phase carries an unlimited trading period and no minimum trading day requirement, so there is no time pressure after the evaluation is passed.
Cons
- Match Trader is the only supported platform. There is no MT4, MT5, cTrader or TradingView option.
- Weekend holding is not permitted on any account type, which rules out swing positions held across Friday's close.
- The TrustPilot score is 3.0 from 8 reviews, a small sample for judging a firm, and the recent one-star reviews on that profile describe denied payouts and delayed account activation.
How FundedFX compares
Three other CFD firms on PropFirmMap sit in a similar entry-price band, and two of them run the same Match Trader platform.
| Firm | Entry price | Profit split | Platforms | TrustPilot |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FundedFX | $85 | Up to 90% | Match Trader | 3.0 (8 reviews) |
| FTMO | $79 | Up to 90% | cTrader, MT5, MT4 | 4.8 (42,594 reviews) |
| Alpha Trader Firm | $79 | Up to 100% | Match Trader, MT5, TradeLocker | 4.8 (396 reviews) |
| TX3 Funding | $70 | Up to 90% | Match Trader, MT5, ProjectX | 3.2 (4,313 reviews) |
On entry price the four firms are close together, spanning $70 to $85, so cost alone does not separate them. The clearer differences are in platform choice and review volume. FTMO and Alpha Trader Firm both carry a TrustPilot score of 4.8, and FTMO's score rests on 42,594 reviews against FundedFX's 8. Alpha Trader Firm advertises a split of up to 100% where FundedFX advertises up to 90%, and both Alpha Trader Firm and TX3 Funding offer Match Trader alongside at least two other platforms, where FundedFX offers Match Trader alone. TX3 Funding is the only one of the three priced below FundedFX at the entry tier while carrying a TrustPilot score in the same range.
Four CFD firms, $70 to $85 to start. The entry fee is the one thing that does not distinguish them.PropFirmMap
Verdict
FundedFX is a young firm with a small public review base, and that is the main thing to weigh. The rule set is straightforward and documented in detail on the firm's own FAQ: static drawdown, no stop-loss requirement, an unlimited funded trading period and a published add-on menu with the fees stated as percentages of the challenge price. Against that, the profit split reaches its advertised ceiling only through a paid add-on, the platform choice is limited to Match Trader, and weekend positions are not allowed.
FundedFX suits traders who already trade on Match Trader, who close positions before Friday's close, and who want a static rather than trailing drawdown at an entry cost of $85. Traders who need MT4, MT5 or TradingView, who hold positions over the weekend, or who want a firm with a long public review record should compare the alternatives above before committing.
