Rhodium FX Review: Plans, Rules, and How It Compares
Rhodium FX
Rhodium FX is a CFD proprietary trading firm operated by RHODIUM FX - FZCO, registered in Dubai Silicon Oasis at Building A1, Dubai Digital Park, United Arab Emirates, under company registration number 60279. It sells a two-phase evaluation across five account sizes from $5,000 to $100,000, with entry fees from $40 to $419. Every size runs the same rule set: a 7% Phase 1 profit target, a 6% Phase 2 target, a 5% daily loss limit, a 10% maximum total loss and a minimum of 3 trading days, with no time limit on either phase. The headline proposition is an 80% profit split that can be raised to 90% by adding the Profit Split Booster at checkout, with the first payout 14 days after the first funded trade and bi-weekly payouts after that. The firm lists Philip H. van den Berg as CEO and Co-Founder. It does not publish a founding date, and third-party listings disagree on one, so we record it as unknown rather than pick a value.
Plans and pricing
Rhodium FX runs a single product line. There is no instant-funding option, no one-step variant and no separate futures programme. What changes between the five tiers is the fee and the funded account size; the pass conditions do not change at all. That is unusual enough to be worth stating plainly, because it means the choice between tiers is a budget and position-sizing decision rather than a rules decision. The firm makes the same point in its own FAQ.
| Plan | Account size | Fee | Phase 1 target | Phase 2 target | Daily loss | Max total loss | Min trading days |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Junior | $5,000 | $40 | 7% | 6% | 5% | 10% | 3 |
| Bronze | $10,000 | $79 | 7% | 6% | 5% | 10% | 3 |
| Silver | $25,000 | $149 | 7% | 6% | 5% | 10% | 3 |
| Gold | $50,000 | $249 | 7% | 6% | 5% | 10% | 3 |
| Platinum | $100,000 | $419 | 7% | 6% | 5% | 10% | 3 |
Each fee is a one-time payment. Because every limit is expressed as a percentage of the starting balance and those percentages are identical across the range, the risk profile of the Junior tier and the Platinum tier is the same in relative terms: 7% to clear Phase 1, 6% to clear Phase 2, 5% as the daily loss limit and 10% as the total loss limit, whichever size is bought. Payments are accepted by credit card, crypto and bank transfer. Payouts themselves are crypto only, and the evaluation fee is not refunded on the first payout.

Rules
The 10% maximum loss is static, measured from the initial account balance rather than trailing a peak. The 5% daily loss limit resets at 00:00 UTC. Leverage is 1:50 during the evaluation and drops to 1:30 once funded. Position sizing is constrained directly: a maximum of 2 positions may be open at any one time, with per-trade risk capped at 2% of current equity. Tradable instruments are forex pairs plus gold, silver and major indices.
Automated strategies and scalping are permitted. Copy trading is not, and the firm also prohibits arbitrage and strategies that exploit platform latency. Overnight and weekend holding are allowed. On the funded side the firm requires 3 days on which the account gains at least 1%, a condition it applies to funded accounts only and not to the evaluation phases.
News trading, hedging, martingale, mandatory protective orders, inactivity and consistency rules do not appear anywhere on the site, for either the evaluation or the funded account. Neither does a reset product or reset fee. We record these as unknown rather than assume they are unrestricted.

Platform and payouts
There is one platform. Every Rhodium FX challenge and funded account runs on Match-Trader, delivered through the browser and on mobile, with TradingView charting included at no additional cost. Traders who want a choice of terminal, or who depend on a specific MetaTrader ecosystem of indicators and expert advisors, will not find it here. Automation itself is allowed, so the constraint is the terminal rather than the strategy.
On the payout side, the first withdrawal is processed 14 days after the first trade on a funded account, and withdrawals move to a bi-weekly cycle after that. The firm states that withdrawals are processed in under 48 hours once requested. Identity verification is required before a payout is released, in the form of KYC and AML documentation such as government-issued photo identification and proof of address. The funded account also carries the requirement of 3 days on which the account gains at least 1%, which functions as a minimum activity condition on the payout rather than on the evaluation.
Several operational details are not settled. The firm's own pages give conflicting support hours, and its stated payout frequency appears as both weekly and bi-weekly on different pages, with the plan pages and terms agreeing on bi-weekly. No minimum or maximum withdrawal amount, on-demand payout option or withdrawal method fee is published anywhere on the site, so we do not record values for them.

Pros and cons
In its favour
- No time limit on either evaluation phase, and the same rules at every account size from $5,000 to $100,000.
- The 10% maximum loss is static from the initial balance, which is more forgiving than a trailing drawdown as an account moves into profit.
- Full rule disclosure on pricing: fees, targets, both loss limits, minimum trading days, leverage in both phases and the payout schedule are all published on the plan pages.
Against it
- A short public track record: 4.2 on Trustpilot from 14 reviews at the time of writing, against competitors carrying tens of thousands.
- Not licensed or regulated in any jurisdiction, by the firm's own disclosure, and all accounts are demo accounts in a simulated environment.
- 38 jurisdictions are restricted, including the United States, Poland and the United Arab Emirates, which is the firm's own country of registration. Payouts are crypto only and the platform choice is limited to Match-Trader.
How it compares
Rhodium FX enters at $40, which places it in the same band as several established CFD firms. The table below compares entry fee, profit split and public review volume against three of them.
| Firm | Entry fee | Profit split | Payouts | Trustpilot | PropFirmMap score |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Rhodium FX | $40 | 80-90% | Bi-weekly | 4.2 (14 reviews) | 5.0 |
 Funding Pips | $29 | 80-100% | Weekly | 4.5 (62,592 reviews) | 8.9 |
 ThinkCapital | $39 | 80% (90% with scaling or add-on) | Bi-weekly | 4.0 (609 reviews) | 6.3 |
 FTMO | $79 | Up to 90% | Bi-weekly | 4.8 (49,993 reviews) | 8.3 |
On price and split, Rhodium FX sits inside the range these firms already occupy. Funding Pips undercuts it at $29 with a higher ceiling on the split and a weekly rather than bi-weekly payout cycle. ThinkCapital is the closest structural match: a comparable entry fee, the same 80% base split rising to 90% through an upgrade, and the same bi-weekly schedule. FTMO costs more at entry and pays out on the same cycle.
The gap is not in the product terms. It is in the evidence behind them. Funding Pips, FTMO and ThinkCapital have each accumulated a public review history running from the hundreds into the tens of thousands; Rhodium FX has 14 reviews. Our own composite score reflects that directly. Rhodium FX scores 100 out of 100 on transparency, the highest pillar available, because it publishes its rules openly, but 37.8 on trust and reliability, which is what pulls its overall score to 5.0 and its safety grade to C. A firm can be fully transparent about its terms and still have no track record of honouring them.
We have confirmed the published rules and fees against the firm's own pages. We have not observed a completed payout cycle. The firm's payout terms are a stated policy, not a demonstrated record, and the 14-review sample is too small to draw a conclusion from.
Verdict
Rhodium FX publishes a clear, internally consistent product: one two-phase evaluation, five sizes, identical rules across all of them, and every material condition stated on the page you buy from. The static 10% drawdown and the absence of a time limit are genuine points in its favour, and at $40 the entry tier is priced in line with the established competition rather than above it.
It suits traders who want a rules-transparent two-phase evaluation with no deadline, who are comfortable on Match-Trader, who can accept crypto-only payouts, and who are not resident in one of the 38 restricted jurisdictions. It is a weaker fit for traders who want a proven payout history before committing, who need a choice of platforms, or who want the option of weekly withdrawals. On the evidence available, the constraint is not the terms but the length of the record behind them, and that only resolves with time.
