FundedKeys is an affiliate partner of the prop firms it links to: buying through a firm link may earn it a commission, at no extra cost to you. How we are paid

Reading room

Three steps, then the rules behind every row.

  1. Step 1: Pick your market and size

    Futures, forex or crypto, from $625 to $400,000 of trading capital.

    Filter the table by market
  2. Step 2: Compare the real cost

    Rank accounts by what each $1,000 of drawdown costs, then read the rules that decide your payout.

  3. Step 3: Buy with PFK where it works

    At Blue Guardian, Bulenox, FunderPro and Alpha Futures, enter PFK at checkout. The prices we show there already include it.

What an instant funding account is

An instant funding account skips the evaluation. You pay once and trade a funded account from the first day, with no profit target to pass first. Most firms run these accounts on simulated capital and pay you a share of the profit under their payout rules.

That is why the rules matter more than the size on the label. The drawdown limit ends the account when you reach it, a daily loss limit can stop you for the day or for good, and many firms add a consistency rule or a minimum number of days before the first payout.

Real cost: what the sticker price hides

Two accounts at the same price can buy very different room to trade. Real cost divides the price you pay by the account's maximum drawdown, per $1,000. AquaFunded Try Aqua $5K costs $10 for $250 of drawdown, so $40 per $1,000.

Today the median real cost is $203 in futures, $236.80 in forex and $341.59 in crypto. The lowest is Bulenox Fast Track $150K (Option 1, trailing) in futures ($86), AquaFunded Try Aqua $5K in forex ($40) and ForTraders Crypto Instant $50K in crypto ($195.60).

A low price is only a good deal if the room it buys is cheap too. Our comparator ranks every account this way.

Five rules to check before you buy

  • Drawdown typeA static drawdown keeps the same floor for the life of the account. An end-of-day drawdown moves only at the daily close. A trailing drawdown follows your highest balance, and some lock at a set level. 75 of the 350 accounts we list have a static drawdown.
  • Daily loss limit292 accounts have one, stated in dollars. For the other 58, no daily loss limit is stated.
  • Consistency ruleIt caps how much of your profit can come from a single day. 92 accounts have none, 211 have one, and for 47 the rule is not published or the firm's own pages disagree.
  • Payout scheduleSchedules run from on demand to every 30 days. 96 accounts pay daily or on demand; 14 pay only at each profit target or once.
  • Payout caps and where you live91 accounts cap payouts in some way, one of them with a lifetime cap. 3 firms restrict US residents (AtmosFunded, FXIFY and Blueberry Funded), 9 accept them with limits, 1 without limits, 14 do not say either way and FundedSquad's own pages disagree.

The 28 instant funding firms we track

28 firms sell instant accounts in our data: 11 in futures, 21 in forex and 5 in crypto, some in more than one market. Each has a full review with every rule linked to the firm's own page.

Promo code PFK: where it works

PFK is our own code. Where it gives a discount, here it is:

  • PFK−25–50%

    Blue Guardian: Instant accounts: 25% off Direct, Fast Track, Instant and Instant Starter. Challenges: 25% off 1 Step Nano, 1 Step Standard, 2 Step Nano, 2 Step Standard, Reserve and Standard; 50% off Express.

  • PFK−40–89%

    Bulenox: Instant accounts: 40% off Fast Track. Challenges: 40% off Momentum Qualification; 75% off Qualification (Option 2, end of day); 89% off Qualification (Option 1, trailing).

  • PFK−30%

    FunderPro: Instant accounts: 30% off Instant. Challenges: 30% off Classic Challenge, One Phase Challenge and Pro Challenge.

  • PFK−10%

    Alpha Futures: Instant accounts: 10% off Direct. Challenges: 10% off the first month of Advanced, Standard and Zero.

At 10 other firms we list our own code too. 14 firms have no code. Prices on FundedKeys include PFK where it applies.

How we check every number

We read each firm's official pages and its checkout, record the date, and link the source in the firm's review. If a firm does not publish a rule, we write "Not published". If its own pages contradict each other, we show both. We do not use ratings, review sites or anonymous reports.

Last full check: Oct 5, 2026.

Questions traders ask

Which instant funding prop firm is the cheapest?

By real cost and by price, the answer today is the same account: AquaFunded Try Aqua $5K, $10 for $250 of drawdown, or $40 per $1,000. For larger accounts, compare real cost at the size you want: in futures the lowest is Bulenox Fast Track $150K (Option 1, trailing) at $86 per $1,000.

Can US residents buy an instant funding account?

3 of the 28 firms restrict US residents: AtmosFunded, FXIFY and Blueberry Funded. FundedSquad's own pages disagree. 9 accept US residents with limits, 1 without limits, and 14 do not say either way. Each review quotes the firm's own wording.

Do instant funding accounts have a daily loss limit?

Most do: 292 of 350. No daily loss limit is stated for 58 accounts, mostly at Instant Funding, City Traders Imperium and Blueberry Funded.

What is the largest instant funding account?

Blue Guardian Instant $400K: $1,650 with PFK, for $24,000 of drawdown.

Does the PFK code work at every firm?

No. It gives the discounts listed above at Blue Guardian, Bulenox, FunderPro and Alpha Futures. At some other firms we list our own code too; confirm the discount at checkout.

What does "Not published" mean?

The firm does not state that rule on its official pages or at its checkout on the date we checked. We never fill the gap with a guess.
