Summary
FundedNext built its reputation on a simple idea: rewarding traders during the evaluation itself. On Stellar challenges, 15% of the profit made during the challenge is paid out with your first withdrawal. And payouts are guaranteed within 24 hours.
One of the most reliable firms on payouts, with a unique reward during the challenge.
Overview
Launched in 2022 with around fifty offices worldwide, FundedNext covers both Forex/CFD and futures. It is one of the fastest-growing firms, driven by strong payout commitments.
Its headline promise: payment within 24 hours, or $1,000 extra. The firm states that 99.99% of requests are processed within that window.
Programs
The Stellar 2-Step is the best-seller: 8% then 5% target, 5% daily loss, 10% max loss and at least 5 trading days per phase. The challenge fee is refunded with the first payout.
The Stellar 1-Step requires 10% in one phase with a 3% daily loss and 6% max loss, only 2 minimum days and no time limit. Stellar Lite (cheaper) and Instant accounts are also available.
The 15% reward
This is FundedNext's signature. On a 100K account that hits its 2-Step targets exactly, the 15% amounts to roughly $1,950 extra paid with the first withdrawal. No other major firm pays for the evaluation phase.
The split starts at 80% and can reach 95% with scaling, which leads up to $4M in capital.
