Here is our full independent review of Funding Frontier:
Funding Frontier was founded in 2024 and is headquartered in Ras Al Khaimah, UAE, led by co-founders and co-CEOs Zain Omar and Keashif Beyg. Despite being under two years old, the firm has grown to 12,400+ active traders, issued $40M+ in simulated funding, distributed $1M+ in payouts, and accumulated a 4.4/5 Trustpilot score from 410+ reviews – one of the more credible early-stage track records in the prop firm space. Maximum combined allocation: $400,000.
1-Step Classic ($55-$539): Single phase, 10% profit target. Daily loss: 3%. Max drawdown: 6% static. 80% profit split. First payout on demand; bi-weekly thereafter.
2-Step Classic ($55-$1,050): Phase 1: 9% profit target. Phase 2: 6%. Daily loss: 4%. Max drawdown: 10% static. 80% profit split. On-demand first payout; bi-weekly thereafter.
2-Step Pro (similar fees to Classic): Phase 1: 7.5% target. Phase 2: 5%. Daily loss: 3% (Phase 1) / 5% (Phase 2). Max drawdown: 8% static. 80% split. Lower targets with tighter daily drawdown — suited to methodical traders.
3-Step Challenge: Three evaluation phases with progressively verified consistency. Contact support for specific targets and fees.
Flex Pass ($10 per phase): Pay only $10 for each evaluation phase. First successful funded withdrawal at 100% profit split. A genuinely accessible entry point for traders who want to prove consistency across multiple phases before committing significant fees.
Instant Funding ($198-$1,898 for $2.5K-$50K): No profit target. Daily loss: 3%. Max drawdown: 6% static. Up to 95% profit split. Direct funded access without evaluation. Higher fees reflect the absence of an evaluation hurdle.
Platforms: MetaTrader 5, Match Trader. Instruments: 50+ assets covering Forex, Indices, Commodities, Stocks, Cryptocurrencies, Oil. Broader instrument coverage than many competitors at this price point. Payments via Crypto and Bank Wire only (no card deposits).
Funding Frontier earns a 6.8 BestProp score. For a firm founded in 2024, the combination of 4.4/5 Trustpilot from 410+ reviews and $40M+ in issued funding is a genuinely impressive early track record. The Flex Pass at $10 per phase is one of the most accessible funded trading paths available. Up to 95% split on Instant Funding, EAs permitted, and on-demand first payout are positive differentiators.
Three specific rules deserve attention before purchasing. First, the 2-minute minimum average trade duration will affect scalpers and very short-term traders. Second, news trading is restricted on funded accounts (±5 minutes around high-impact events), which limits event-driven strategies in the live phase. Third, the $3.50/lot commission adds real ongoing cost beyond challenge fees – a trader doing 100 round trips per month on a $50K account adds $350 in commission. No card payment at checkout (crypto or bank wire only) is also a friction point for some buyers. UAE registration and a very young operating history mean the independent track record, while promising, remains limited.
Here is our full independent review of Ment Funding:
Ment Funding was founded in October 2021 and is headquartered in Pennsylvania, USA, with operations in Austin, Texas. CEO Anton Calmes leads the firm, which holds a 4.8/5 Trustpilot rating from 170+ reviews. The firm makes a remarkable operational claim: not a single refused payout since founding in 2021. Five trading platforms are supported: MT4, MT5, cTrader, Match Trader, and DXTrade — the widest platform selection in the prop firm space. Three distinct asset class programs are offered: Forex (1-Step, up to $2M), Futures (up to $400K), and Equities (new, up to $100K).
All trading strategies are permitted across Forex and Equities: EAs, hedging, scalping, news trading. No restrictions on approach. Base profit split is 75%, upgradeable to 90% as a paid add-on. Account sizes on the Forex program reach $2,000,000 — one of the few prop firms in the world offering seven-figure funded accounts.
Single phase, 10% profit target. Daily loss: 5%. Max drawdown: 6% static balance-based. No time limit, no consistency rule. First withdrawal on demand at any time; monthly thereafter. Max drawdown locks at starting balance after first payout. 75% split (90% add-on). Account sizes and fees: $25K/$250, $50K/$450, $100K/$750, $200K/$1,500, $400K/$3,000, $1M/$8,600, $2M/$17,200.
Same 10% profit target and 6% max drawdown as Forex. Daily loss tightened to 3%. Consistency rule applies: no single trading day may account for more than 33% of total profits. 90-day evaluation window (365-day add-on on $400K). 75% split (90% add-on). Available at $25K-$400K with same fees as the Forex program.
S&P 100 equities with short selling permitted. Two variants available. Static variant: 15% profit target, 2% daily DD, 6% static max DD, 33% consistency rule, 80% split. Trailing variant: 10% profit target, 3% daily DD, 6% trailing max DD, 33% consistency rule, 80% split. Both offer 90% split as add-on. Bi-weekly payouts, minimum $100. Available at $10K-$100K.

Ment Funding earns an 8.0 BestProp score. A 2021 founding with a genuine no-refused-payout track record, 4.8/5 Trustpilot, three distinct asset classes, and the broadest platform selection in the industry (five platforms) make this a top-tier prop firm. Account sizes to $2M Forex are in a class of their own. No trading style restrictions on Forex and Equities. The 30-day activity rule is easily satisfied. Main considerations: 75% base split is lower than competitors offering 80-90% as standard, the Futures consistency rule penalises outlier days, and the Equities program is new. Overall one of the most complete prop firm offerings available.
