Prop firm challenges under $10, and what each one buys

A few firms sell an evaluation for less than $10. The price on the button is the smallest part of the comparison. Steps, a fee due after you pass, a cap on what you can withdraw and whether the fee comes back decide what the attempt costs.

What you get for under $10

Under $10 buys a small account, $1,000 at every firm in the first table below, on the same percentages as the firm’s larger sizes. The fee is small because the account is: a 10% target on $1,000 is $100. Two pricing shapes sit under $10: the whole fee up front, and a small first payment with the rest due after you pass.

Formula

cost of an attempt = fee up front + fee due after passing

cost once paid out = cost of an attempt − fee refunded with the first payout

A split fee lowers the price of trying and raises the price of passing. Add both parts before you compare it with a fee paid once: $9 + $50 = $59 for a $5,000 Fast Track account, $0.99 + $86.45 = $87.44 for a $10,000 Flash account.

Questions

What traders ask about challenges under $10.

Yes. On the date at the top of this guide, Propanium’s Starter was $1 for a $1,000 account, one phase, with lifetime payouts capped at $100. EverFunded’s Flash starts at $0.99, with $86.45 due on a $10,000 account once you pass.

By the price on the button, the lowest we found was $0.99 to start (the rest due after passing) and $1 paid in full. By what you have paid once a payout arrives, add any fee due after passing and take off any fee refunded with the first payout. Check the payout cap too: a low fee can come with a low limit on what you can withdraw.

Not with us. A $1,000 account has the same percentages as our $10,000 account, in smaller dollars. The fee changes what an attempt costs, not how hard the rules are.

No. Most traders do not pass an evaluation at any price. A small fee makes it cheaper to learn the rules in real dollars before you buy a larger one.
