Instant funding futures prop firms

14 of the firms we compare sell an instant-funding programme for the $50,000 account. You pay a fee and trade a funded account straight away, with no evaluation to pass first. The fee is higher than for an evaluation, and the payout rules differ from firm to firm, so the cap on the first payout is shown on every card.

Figures for the $50,000 account at list price, read from each firm’s own pages. Data last reviewed 2026-10-19. Prices change, so check the firm’s page before you buy.

Every firm in the ranked lists on this page is a PFT Prop Scout partner: if you buy through our link or code we may earn a commission, and that commission changes neither the order nor the PFT Scout Score (see how we compare and the affiliate disclosure). Nothing here is financial advice or a recommendation to trade with any firm. Prop firm terms change often; read the current rules on the firm’s own site before you pay for an evaluation.
