Daily Drawdown 4% daily drawdown for One-Step & Subscription challenges and 5% for Two-Step, measured intraday as a trailing limit from the day's highest equity point. Source: https://fondeo.xyz/en/docs/trading-rules (2026-07-12). Standard Mode 5% daily loss limit, Pro Mode 4% daily loss limit; both the trading day and the daily loss reset at 00:00 (UTC+8)
Payout Frequency Daily
Fondeo advertises daily payouts; first payout available as soon as 24 hours after the first trade on a funded account. Withdrawals in USDT or USDC once the $100 minimum threshold is reached.
Every 7 days
The homepage FAQ (Q14) states scholarship rewards can be requested every 7 days, paid in USDT. The firm's own withdrawal-config endpoint returns profitWithdrawDays=14 without labelling what the integer measures; recorded as an unresolved conflict rather than published as a competing frequency.

Pros & Cons
Main Benefits
  • Crypto prop firm with up to $200K funded accounts and a 70-90% profit split (70% start, +5% every 4 months to a 90% max). Daily payouts in USDT/USDC processed in 12-48 hours (first payout 1 day after the first funded trade, $100 minimum, no withdrawal fees), up to 1:100 leverage with no position-size restrictions, three funding paths (1-Step, 2-Step, and a monthly Subscription that resets on failure), trading on a Bybit demo connection or the proprietary Fondeo Terminal (TradingView charts, no API keys), plus an AI trading coach and a 4-month scaling path.
  • Crypto-only prop firm backed by CoinW Group, with simulated funded accounts up to 200,000 USDT and scholarship (profit) share of 80% rising to 90% under special incentive programs. 24/7 uninterrupted trading, overnight position holding and up to 5x leverage on all assets. Two entry ladders: Standard Mode from a $15 audition fee on a $1K account, and Pro Mode up to a $200K account. Withdrawals requestable every 7 days in USDT. Up to 5 assessment accounts can run at once. A separate HourTrader product runs 1 to 8 hour challenges on a fixed $10,000 simulated balance for a $5 to $500 audition fee.
Main Drawbacks
  • Young firm with a thin verified track record (TrustPilot profile claimed May 2025, only 8 reviews at 4.0, just 1 review in the last 12 months). The website prominently advertises a false 5.0 rating from 200+ reviews with templated stock testimonials that do not match its real TrustPilot profile. The homepage Account Rules table also contradicts the firm's own detailed rules docs on daily-drawdown and max-loss limits. Bots/automated trading and news trading are prohibited, and the registered US address (30 N Gould St, Sheridan, WY) is a common registered-agent address.
  • TrustPilot has removed the firm's star rating entirely for a breach of its guidelines and states it removed a number of fake reviews, so no independent rating is available. The TrustPilot profile is filed under Educational Institution, and the user agreement states the platform does not offer regulated financial services in any jurisdiction and frames payouts as educational scholarship rewards the platform may adjust, suspend or terminate at its discretion. Multiple TrustPilot reviewers report failed withdrawals and disputed rule breaches. The audition fee is non-refundable in cash: the advertised refund is a credit toward a new challenge only. Minimum trading days and assessment time limits are stated inconsistently between the FAQ and the firm's own rules endpoint.
