    Support actually knows the product

    Bought a FTMO evaluation on a whim and ended up sticking with them. No minimum-days games on the payout — requested when eligible and it cleared. The daily and max drawdown rules are clearly shown on the dashboard in real time. Onboarding and KYC were done in a single sitting. No regrets so far.

    Refunded my fee on the first payout

    Been funded with FTMO since earlier this year and it's been steady. Three payouts in and every one has been on time. The support rep actually understood the rule I was asking about. Would sign up for another account.

  • Isabelle I.

    Passed both phases and got paid

    Signed up for the two-step FTMO challenge and passed on the second attempt. They even refunded my evaluation fee with the first withdrawal, as advertised. Scaling plan is realistic and the profit split was exactly what was advertised. Ran it on MT5 and execution was fine for my style. The support rep actually understood the rule I was asking about. Onboarding and KYC were done in a single sitting. Recommended if you actually follow the rules.

    Six months funded, zero issues

    Signed up for the two-step FTMO challenge and passed on the second attempt. Payout in USDT was processed faster than I expected. Support answered a KYC question over live chat within the hour. This is the one I point new traders to.

    Best evaluation I've traded so far

    Took the one-phase FTMO account and it was a clean process start to finish. Bank transfer took a day longer than the crypto option but still landed early. The mobile app is usable for managing trades, not for entries. Discord community and support were genuinely helpful. Nice touch that the profit target and drawdown update live as you trade. Happy to keep trading here.

    Best evaluation I've traded so far

    Funded with FTMO for about half a year now across two scale-ups. Profit split arrived exactly as stated, no surprise deductions. The daily and max drawdown rules are clearly shown on the dashboard in real time. Execution during London open was clean, no requotes. Got a same-day reply on a weekend, which I didn't expect. The dashboard shows your objectives and progress without any guesswork. Would buy another evaluation without hesitating.

    Fast KYC, faster payout

    Cleared the evaluation with FTMO in a few weeks and everything went the way the site describes. Three payouts in and every one has been on time. Weekend holding and news trading are both allowed on my plan, which is rare. Used the cTrader option and had no real complaints. Got a same-day reply on a weekend, which I didn't expect. Onboarding and KYC were done in a single sitting. Happy to keep trading here.

    Best evaluation I've traded so far

    Came to FTMO from another prop firm and the difference in reliability is obvious. They even refunded my evaluation fee with the first withdrawal, as advertised. Scaling plan is realistic and the profit split was exactly what was advertised. The support rep actually understood the rule I was asking about. Would buy another evaluation without hesitating.

    Funded trader ·

    Passed both phases and got paid

    Bought a FTMO evaluation on a whim and ended up sticking with them. My first payout was approved in about two days and hit my wallet the same week. No surprise rules — the consistency and news-trading policy are spelled out up front. Platform choice is decent — MT4, MT5 and a web option. Discord community and support were genuinely helpful. Solid choice for a serious, rules-following trader.

    Fast KYC, faster payout

    Cleared the evaluation with FTMO in a few weeks and everything went the way the site describes. Three payouts in and every one has been on time. Fills were fair even around the news I'm allowed to trade. Got a same-day reply on a weekend, which I didn't expect. Would buy another evaluation without hesitating.

    Scaled my account after two payouts

    Took the one-phase FTMO account and it was a clean process start to finish. My first payout was approved in about two days and hit my wallet the same week. Scaling plan is realistic and the profit split was exactly what was advertised. DXtrade felt a bit basic but it did the job. Discord community and support were genuinely helpful. Nice touch that the profit target and drawdown update live as you trade. Recommended if you actually follow the rules.

    Payout landed exactly as promised

    Cleared the evaluation with FTMO in a few weeks and everything went the way the site describes. Requested a withdrawal on a Monday and it was settled by Wednesday. The rulebook is short, plain, and matches what actually happens on the account. Had a couple of minor platform hiccups but nothing account-ending. The support rep actually understood the rule I was asking about. Would sign up for another account.

    Smooth from challenge to first withdrawal

    Came to FTMO from another prop firm and the difference in reliability is obvious. Requested a withdrawal on a Monday and it was settled by Wednesday. Weekend holding and news trading are both allowed on my plan, which is rare. Spreads and commissions were about average for a prop account. No regrets so far.
