Overview
If you’ve been comparing prop firms, FundedNext has probably come up. It has been running since 2022 out of Dubai, UAE. The route to funding is a 2-Step / Express evaluation, and you can scale to $200,000 in funded capital. Here’s what we found testing it ourselves.
Getting funded runs through a 2-Step / Express evaluation, with drawdown tracked on a Static basis — worth understanding before you start, since it decides how much room you really have on a bad day. You’ll be trading on MT5, cTrader, keeping 90% of what you make. Withdrawals were processing in 24–48 hours when we last checked. The tabs above break each of these down — rules, platforms, and payout experience — with the fine print that actually matters.
✅ What We Like
- 90% profit split — highest in the industry for a top-tier firm
- Weekend holding allowed
- News trading allowed
- 24–48 hour payouts — fastest consistent payout in our data
- Fee refunded on first withdrawal
- Copy trading and EAs both permitted
❌ What Could Be Better
- Founded 2022 — shorter track record than FTMO or The5%ers
- MT5 and cTrader only (no MT4)
- $200K max is lower than FTMO's $400K
Score Breakdown
Evaluation Rules
The drawdown here is static — your loss limit is fixed from the starting balance and never moves up as you profit. If you start a $100K account with a 10% max drawdown, the floor stays at $90K no matter how high your equity climbs. This is the most forgiving model for traders who bank profits early, because winning never shrinks your room for error.

Trading Platforms
MT4's successor — faster backtesting, more timeframes, depth-of-market, and native support for more asset classes. Most newer firms have standardised on it.
Known for clean charting and transparent level-II pricing. Favoured by scalpers for its execution detail. Rare among prop firms, so support here is a genuine differentiator.
Payouts
Payout reliability matters more than any headline number — a generous split means nothing if withdrawals stall. FundedNext was processing withdrawals in 24–48 hours when we last verified this review, and the challenge fee is refunded once you reach your first payout — effectively making the evaluation free if you pass and withdraw. If you've withdrawn from this firm recently and your experience differs, use the report link at the bottom of this review.
Our Honest Verdict
FundedNext is the fastest-growing legitimate prop firm we've reviewed. The 90% profit split from day one is the best available anywhere, and their 24–48 hour payout speed is consistently confirmed by our community data. If FTMO is the industry benchmark, FundedNext is the one actively trying to beat it.
