Funded Elite

Funded Elite has 3 trader reviews averaging 4.3 out of 5 and 3 years in operation. Verified payouts are the part worth weighing most: they are payments traders proved they received, not claims the firm makes about itself. The payouts tab lists them individually so you can see the amounts and dates for yourself.

Funded Elite's cheapest evaluation starts at $5. It currently lists 49 challenges, and the price of each rises with the account size it funds. The challenges tab shows every account size with its current fee.

Funded Elite pays traders 70% - 80%. The range reflects different challenge types — the split you get depends on which one you buy and, with some firms, on how long you stay funded.

The largest account Funded Elite funds directly is $400,000. Firms that run a scaling plan raise that ceiling for traders who stay profitable, so check the individual challenge for its scaling terms.

Funded Elite supports MetaTrader 5 and MatchTrader. Platform matters more than it used to: after MetaTrader access tightened for prop firms, availability now varies from firm to firm, and automated strategies written for one platform rarely move to another.

Funded Elite states that it is not a regulated financial entity - the norm for prop firms rather than a red flag. Traders on an evaluation account trade simulated capital, not client money, so the activity generally falls outside investment-firm regulation. It is registered in Italy.

Funded Elite pays out via Bank Transfer and Crypto.
