How It Works
Challenge fees are the primary revenue source for prop firms. The fee varies based on account size - a $10K account might cost $85, while a $200K account could cost $1,000+.
Most firms offer refundable fees (returned with your first payout after passing) and discount codes that can save 20-50%. When comparing firms, look at the total cost relative to account size.
