Here is our full independent review of Finotive Funding:
Finotive Funding was founded in April 2021 and is operated by Finotive Funding Technologies Limited (company number 11088), headquartered at Innovation One Building, Level 2, DIFC, Dubai, UAE. CEO Oliver Newland leads the firm, which is backed by Finotive Markets, an FSC-regulated affiliate broker, and uses Finotive Pay (CY) Limited for payment processing. With $20M+ in total payouts, 70,000+ verified users, and a 4.5/5 Trustpilot score, the firm has a credible multi-year operating record.
Four programs are available: 2-Step Challenge, 1-Step Challenge, Instant Funding, and Finotive Pro (a salary-based model). Maximum combined allocation reaches $1,400,000.
2-Step Challenge ($10K-$200K): Phase 1 requires a 7.5% net profit target. Phase 2 requires 5%. Max drawdown: 8% static. Daily drawdown: 4% (resets at 17:00 New York time). No time limit. Profit split starts at 75%, scaling up to 90% with consistency. Payouts every Friday from day 1 of funding.
1-Step Challenge ($10K-$200K): Single phase requiring a 10% net profit target. Max drawdown: 7.5% static. Daily drawdown: 5%. Profit split: 75-90%. Same weekly Friday payout structure.
Instant Funding ($10K-$200K): No profit target, no evaluation required. Access to funded capital from day 1. Stricter drawdown rules apply. Profit split: 55-80% – notably lower than the challenge programs. Suitable for experienced traders who want immediate access but should factor in the reduced split.
Finotive Pro ($10K-$200K): A unique salary-based model. Traders receive a fixed 1% monthly salary on account balance, plus 100% profit split on gains above that. A 5% net profit quarterly target must be maintained. Designed for traders who want stable income rather than pure profit-share.
Failed Account Policy: If an account is breached and a new account is purchased, the profit split on the new account may be reduced until the previous losses are recovered by the firm. This is an unusual policy not common in the prop firm space – traders who breach accounts should clarify this with support before repurchasing.
Platforms: Match Trader, MetaTrader 5. Instruments span Forex, Metals, Energy, Indices, Cryptocurrencies, and Stocks – one of the broader instrument sets available, including individual equities.
Finotive issues official payout certificates, provides real-time risk calculators, breach alerts, and instant notifications. The Discord community is active, and educational webinars are available. Restricted countries include Iran and North Korea (additional regional restrictions may apply – check at checkout).
Finotive Funding earns a 7.3 BestProp score. Over three years of operation, $20M+ in verified payouts, and a 4.5/5 Trustpilot score confirm this is a genuine, functioning firm. The Finotive Pro salary model is a meaningful differentiator for consistent traders, weekly Friday payouts from day 1 are better than the industry average, and the instrument breadth (including stocks) adds flexibility.
Three rules deserve careful attention before purchasing. First, the starting profit split of 75% is below the 80-90% now standard at comparable firms. Second, the scalping penalty (reduced payout if 50%+ of trades close within 5 minutes) affects a significant portion of trader styles. Third, the failed-account split reduction policy is unusual industry-wide and creates additional downside after a breach. Instant Funding’s 55-80% split makes it less competitive than challenge-based accounts at the same firm. Traders who trade news, use EAs, or hold positions for longer periods will find the best fit here.
Here is our full independent review of Funded Trading Plus:
Funded Trading Plus (FTP) was founded in November 2021 by co-founder Simon Massey and is operated by FTP London Ltd, registered at 7 Bell Yard, London WC2A 2JR, UK. The firm has built one of the strongest reputations in the CFD prop space: 4.7/5 Trustpilot from over 2,000 reviews, with more than 90% five-star ratings. Maximum initial account size is $400,000, scaling to $2,500,000 with the Enhanced Scaling add-on. All programs operate on cTrader, Match Trader, or DXTrade with access to Forex, Metals, Energy, Indices, and Crypto.
The defining operational strengths: no minimum trading days on four of six programs, weekly payouts from Day 0, and a 100% profit split achievable on all programs after scaling. EAs, algos, and bots are fully supported.
One-Phase Experienced ($119-$949 for $12.5K-$200K): Single phase, 10% profit target. Daily loss: 4%. Max drawdown: 6% static. No minimum trading days. Up to 100% split. Minimum $50 withdrawal. First payout from Day 0. Best for experienced traders who want a clean single-phase structure with no time pressure.
Two-Phase Premium ($247-$1,097 for $25K-$200K): Phase 1: 8%. Phase 2: 5%. Daily loss: 4%. Max drawdown: 8% static. No minimum trading days. Up to 100% split. A balanced two-phase program with lower combined targets (8%+5%) and tighter daily loss than Advanced.
Two-Phase Advanced ($249-$1,099 for $25K-$200K): Phase 1: 10%. Phase 2: 5%. Daily loss: 5%. Max drawdown: 10% static. No minimum trading days. Up to 100% split. Wider buffers than Premium — suited to traders who want more room and are comfortable with a higher combined target.
Prestige Lite ($129-$209 for $25K-$50K) and Prestige Pro ($139-$469 for $25K-$200K): Both follow a 10%/5% two-phase structure with 5% daily DD, 10% max DD, and a minimum 3 trading days requirement — the only programs in the lineup with a minimum day rule. Weekly payouts. Up to 100% split.
Master Instant Funding ($225-$4,500 for $5K-$100K): No evaluation. No profit target. Daily loss: 6%. Max drawdown: 6% static. Immediate funded access. Cannot hold positions over weekends. Up to 100% split. First payout from Day 0, weekly thereafter. The high fees relative to account size reflect the absence of any evaluation hurdle.
Platforms: cTrader, Match Trader, DXTrade. Instruments: Forex, Metals, Energy, Indices, Crypto. Three-platform choice is above average for UK-registered firms. cTrader offers institutional-grade execution with raw spreads on many pairs.
Funded Trading Plus earns an 8.0 BestProp score — one of the strongest among UK-registered prop firms. The 4.7/5 Trustpilot from 2,000+ reviews (90%+ five-star) is an exceptional credibility signal for a firm founded in 2021. No minimum trading days on four programs removes artificial time pressure. Weekly payouts from Day 0, full EA support, a 100% achievable profit split, and a £400K maximum allocation make this a trader-first operation. Static drawdown across all programs means there is no trailing high-water mark to worry about intraday.
The main considerations: Master Instant Funding has very high fees relative to account size ($4,500 for $100K instant access), weekend holds are prohibited on Instant accounts, and news trading restrictions are not clearly published — verify before purchase if event trading is part of your strategy. Overall, FTP is a top-tier option for systematic traders, EA operators, and anyone who values payout speed and operational reliability over the lowest possible entry fee.
