  • 1-step assessment with no time limit. Profit splits up to 90%. Funded accounts up to $650K. Weekly payouts processed within 24 hours via Bank Transfer, Crypto Wallet, or Amaiz Wallet (EU residents).

Free 7-day trial available. Multilingual support in 6 languages. Awarded 'Best Prop Firm 2025' at London Trader Show.
Main Drawbacks
  • Originally London UK, now Dubai UAE. 3-Step challenges have low profit potential.
  • Scalping, HFT, hedging, arbitrage, and EAs/bots strictly prohibited (no automation without prior written approval). 40% consistency rule applies to both single trading days and single trades. US citizens cannot participate regardless of residency. For accounts purchased on/after Feb 2 2026, any funded-account breach forfeits all remaining profits. Proprietary QuadCode platform only (no MT4/MT5/cTrader). Profit split can be reduced to 70% if account is flagged for risk or compliance breach. Mid-tier TrustPilot rating (3.5/5 across 722 reviews) with mixed feedback on payout reviews and assessment-process disputes.
