Our highest-scored forex prop firm in 2026 is FundingPips (4.5/5). Its flagship is a $100K 2-step account (Pro - Challenges) at $466: a 6% / 6% target, a 3% daily cap, a 6% static max loss and an 80% split. Next in line: FundedNext, The5ers and Finotive Funding. Of the 55 forex firms we follow, 53 sell accounts we file under forex, 1,582 in all.
Forex prop firms sell CFD challenges on platforms like MetaTrader, cTrader and Match-Trader, mostly for a single fee. The typical firm pays every two weeks and limits daily losses to between 3% and 5%.
Where forex firms really differ is not the headline split. It is the drawdown model, whether a consistency rule applies to payouts and which countries they turn away.
Method: Every firm in this market, sorted by our score and shown with the account nearest $100K ($50K for futures). No firm with an open warning makes the picks. We quote official list prices with no promo codes and add any fee you pay after passing.
Every figure is a median of accounts, not of firms: the 1,582 accounts listed here, at list price, as of October 5, 2026. Size prices leave out pay-later plans.

Sorted by overall score. A ⚠ flag means the firm carries a warning, so read its review first.
Pick in this order: the drawdown model first (static is kinder than trailing), then any consistency rule on payouts, then the restricted-country list. Leave cost per $10K for last, because a cheap account is no use if its rules clash with how you trade.
On our score, FundingPips (4.5/5). Close behind: FundedNext, The5ers and Finotive Funding.
Leveraged has the lowest-priced $100K forex account here, at $188, with any pass fee counted. The lowest list price for any account here is $9 for a $5K account at FundedHive, a firm with a warning (without warnings: $13 for a $2K account at Hantec Trader). Pay-later plans start lower: a $2.50 deposit on a $5K account at QT Funded, with $65 more due when you pass. We quote list prices, no discount codes.
Among firms with no warnings, the longest-running are FTMO at 11 years, The5ers at 10 years, City Traders Imperium at 8 years and FTUK at 5 years.
