Pros & Cons
Main Benefits
  • Up to 90% of your simulated profits as a reward, accounts up to $200,000 FTMO Account, established 2015 with 3.5M+ customers worldwide, MT4 MT5 cTrader supported, 100% refund of initial fee on first reward (2-Step), Prague-based with $500M+ paid in rewards
  • Three routes to a funded account (1-phase Challenge, 2-phase Challenge, and an Instant account with no evaluation); no time limit on Challenge accounts; entry tickets from 29$ on a $1,000 account; a free trial on a $50,000 account; payouts advertised as completed within 60 minutes after risk-team approval; MT4, Match Trade and Trading View; a scaling programme to $2,000,000; an EU-registered operator (My Funding Account P.S.A., KRS 0001023771, Katowice, Poland) with a published address.
Main Drawbacks
  • All accounts we provide to our clients are demo accounts with fictitious funds and any trading is in a simulated environment only; prices charged in EUR; 2-Step Verification phase required before reaching FTMO Account
  • Profit split starts at 65% on the 1-phase Beginner tier (70% Instant, 80% 85% 90% two-phase). News trading is permitted only during the Challenge, not on the funded MFA account. The pricing widget publishes a price for only a fraction of the advertised size/tier combinations. No crawlable FAQ answers, terms or payout-method list: payout frequency, first-payout window, minimum and maximum withdrawal and the refund trigger are all undisclosed. TrustPilot solicits its reviews (4.2/143).
