Liked most: What I like most about The5ers is their unmatched career scaling plan that actually doubles your capital up to $4M

Liked least: 14-day payout waiting period on funded accounts.

The5ers is hands down one of the most reliable and trader-focused prop firms in the industry. With a rock-solid payout track record dating back to 2016, realistic evaluation parameters, and no arbitrary time pressures, it gives disciplined traders the room to execute properly. Add in their industry-leading scaling plan that can take you all the way to $4M in real capital, and it's the gold standard for anyone looking to build a long-term trading career rather than just chasing quick evaluation flips.

I reached funded stage but haven't got any payout. Their rules are very clear, support is decent, website can be more good, i didn't get any payout so can say about that . I only problem i faced was spreads it can be better

Liked most: The variety of challenges they offer

Liked least: I don’t like the web platform.

It’s a good prop firm because it has good rules and a solid reputation. Personally, I would like them to add the option to temporarily lock accounts, like they do with futures.

Liked most: We can pass the account in one day

Liked least: They offer only one trading platform

I recently purchased a $25K account with The5ers Futures, and the onboarding process was smooth. The rules are easy to understand, and the dashboard feels clean and user-friendly.
What I like:✅ Transparent rules,trusted proform and a simple evaluation process.

What could be better: It would be great if they also supported Rithmic as many futures traders prefer it.Right now having more platform and connectivity options would make the experience even better.

Overall:A solid start so far.Looking forward to trading the account and seeing how the payout process and support perform over time.

Liked most: I like the variety of programs and the possibility to scale the account over time. The5ers also offers a relatively flex

Liked least: There are quite a few rules to keep track of, and the payout conditions depend on the specific program. For example, Hig

Overall, I’ve had a positive experience with The5ers. I like the different program options and the possibility of growing the account through the scaling system. The unlimited time to complete the evaluation is also a big plus, as it allows you to focus more on risk management instead of rushing to hit a deadline. The profit split can also increase as you progress, which is a nice incentive.

Liked most: No countdown on the eval

Liked least: BlackArrow feels a bit barebones

The5ers Futures has been pretty interesting so far. I like that the eval doesnt have some 30-day clock hanging over your head. I can just wait for my setups and not force trades because time is running out. You can even finish it in one day if you hit the numbers, although that 40% per-position rule still has to line up. The only part I’m not really sold on is BlackArrow — feels a little basic compared with the platforms I normally use.

Liked most: Flexible consistency

Liked least: Newer firm for futures

ngl I like the way The5ers set up the growth side. You hit the profit milestone, account scales and your withdrawal doesn’t undo that progress, which is a nice touch. Makes it feel less like “make money then start over” 😂. Only thing I’m not crazy about is the payout cycle resetting when the account scales. Still, the whole growth structure is pretty interesting and gives you a reason to keep building instead of just chasing one payout.

Liked most: 40% consistency is based on the trade

Liked least: first payout has a waiting period

The 50K Futures account has a pretty unusual consistency setup. Since the 40% is calculated from your biggest individual trade, a strong day doesn't automatically become a problem — you can keep trading until that trade falls within the limit. That also means the evaluation can technically be completed in one day if the target and other rules are met. The same consistency concept continues on funded as well. Another thing I liked is the $59 evaluation fee being refunded after the third payout. The downside for me is waiting for the first payout eligibility

Liked most: Cheap prices

Liked least: News trading restrictions

Payouts have been consistently on time via Rise with no random delays or excuses. If you're looking for a long-term firm with a legitimate scaling path rather than just a quick payout cash grab, 5ers is definitely top tier. Hidden rules can be annoying if you are profitable trader..

Liked most: Almost no rules that are made with the intent to tie down a trader. Fewest of rules

Liked least: The time it takes for passing an evaluation and waiting for the next phase takes too much of time, it has to be instant.

It's a solid CFD firm, no doubt. I really like the High Stakes challenges, Seems like no rules except the usual daily drawdown. I like the fact that they recieve payments in crypto and also have the payment method of crypto as well.

I loved this firm because of their transparent and no hidden rules. You can enjoy 5% max drawdown without any issue. High Stakes offer no risk per trade on funded phase which makes them best

Liked most: The trading platform performed flawlessly

Liked least: wish i had a bad thing to say

I want to be completely upfront: I have not received a payout from The5ers yet. My review is solely based on the evaluation phase. That being said, getting through the challenge was an incredibly smooth experience. The rules were transparent from day one, the trading platform didn't lag at all, and their support team was highly responsive. I’ll update this once I process that first withdrawal, but the evaluation process itself is top tier

Liked least: I didn't like the time taken to receive my payout

The 5ers is definitely one of my top firms . I love their transparency with challenge phses and the funded account. I received 1 payout with them which took some time to get into my wallet but I'm grateful it did get into my wallet.
