If you are comparing Funded Trading Plus before you pay an evaluation fee, you probably want the programme rules, what the official pages say about fees, whether the accounts are simulated, and whether this site gets paid if you buy. This page answers those from dated, sourced pages. It is not a ranking, and it is not a recommendation to buy a challenge.
What this page covers (and how QuantKit is paid)
The aim is rules-first coverage. QuantKit covers Funded Trading Plus the same way it covers Eightcap: cite official programme pages, label gaps, state the simulated-account honesty, and place a disclosed Referral only after that content — never as the hero. This page also exists so disclosure can honestly place an FTP Referral button once dedicated coverage is live.
Figures below were fetched on 10 November 2026, Asia/Hong_Kong. Prop fees and rules change; re-check FTP’s live pages before you buy.
Material connection
Funded Trading Plus is a first-wave Affiliate on QuantKit from 9 November 2026, Asia/Hong_Kong (announced 6 November 2026; tracking campaign_id=7, ref_id=789). If you use a Referral link and later buy an evaluation, FTP may pay QuantKit under affiliate programme terms.
This page does not invent a headline commission percentage. Rates live on disclosure (dashboard facts there include first-purchase and repeat revshare). The Referral button sits after the rules and fees sections below.
What payment never buys
Payment does not buy a softer con, a pass claim, or a better rank. Rule tables, wording, and corrections stay method-driven. No partner pays for editorial wording — the same rule as on disclosure. QuantKit does not claim Funded Trading Plus is the easiest pass.
Funded Trading Plus in one paragraph
Funded Trading Plus is the trading name of Acello Ltd, a company incorporated in England and Wales with company number 12696083 (address printed on the firm’s site: 30 Old Bailey, London, EC4M 7AU). It sells simulated evaluations with real-world performance Rewards under its own terms. That is not a recommendation to buy a challenge, and it is not a claim that QuantKit verified every legal footnote.
Simulated accounts (required honesty)
Funded Trading Plus states this clearly on its 2-Step Classic page and Activation help articles: challenges are simulated evaluations; no real trading capital is provided or traded; traders are compensated based on simulated profits in accordance with challenge Terms and Conditions. This page does not imply live capital on evaluation or “funded” stage accounts.
Programmes QuantKit covers first
QuantKit deep-covers two programmes here: 2-Step Classic and Activation Accounts. Other lineup names (1-Step Express, Instant Funding, and similar marketing labels) get a short orientation only — full fee and rule cards for those are Pending until official pages are archived at ship.
2-Step Classic
Source: official two-step page, fetched 10 November 2026 Asia/Hong_Kong. The $100k card is the size cited in detail; other sizes were visible as selectors but full fee grids for $10k / $25k / $50k are Pending until re-checked at ship.
| Parameter | Page-stated value ($100k card) |
|---|---|
| Total fee | $549.00 USD (page also showed a discounted $356.85 USD — both are page-stated; confirm live figure at ship) |
| Simulated profit target | 7% Step 1 / 7% Step 2 |
| Maximum daily loss | 4%, balance-based |
| Maximum loss | 8%, static balance-based |
| Consistency score | 35% challenge / 50% funded |
| Symbol loss limit | 3% |
| Account leverage | 1:50 |
| Time limit | Unlimited |
| Reward split | 80% |
| Reward frequency | Every 10 days |
| VAT / extras as printed | Card noted “Includes VAT”; swap-free and other add-ons sold separately |
Hard vs soft rules (from the same page’s FAQ block):
- Hard / account-closure events: exceeding daily or maximum simulated loss; violating the max symbol rule (no single asset more than 3% of total simulated risk/positioning); prohibited practices such as latency arbitrage.
- Soft / performance adjustments: consistency score — if you are outside 35% (evaluation) or 50% (simulated funded), the account stays open, but you keep trading until consistency aligns.
Reward eligibility (same FAQ): request a Reward once the simulated-live account shows at least 1% growth and other objectives (including consistency) are met; cycle every 10 calendar days. Scaling (20% simulated-profit target plus activity/consistency gates) is firm-stated on that FAQ — not a QuantKit promise of approval. Platforms named on the card: Match Trade and MT5 (availability can vary by location).
Activation Accounts
Activation Accounts split the fee: a small challenge fee now, an activation fee only if you pass. They are a separate programme with their own rules — not a replacement for 2-Step Classic.
Challenge stage
Sources: pricing and fees (help last update 10.20.2026) and challenge rules (help last update 09.18.2026).
| Parameter | Official help value |
|---|---|
| Phases | One |
| Challenge fee | $4 on every size |
| Activation fee (pay on pass) | $179 ($25k) / $299 ($50k) / $489 ($100k) |
| Profit target | 2% of starting balance |
| Daily loss | 4%, balance-based |
| Maximum drawdown | 6%, static on the challenge |
| Consistency on challenge | None |
| Min trading days | None |
| Time limit | None |
| Breach of loss limits | Major violation — account cancelled (no soft breach) |
If you pass and skip the activation fee, you keep the pass but do not get the simulated funded account. Help notes that unpaid activation after 60 days may lose Dashboard payment access.
Funded stage (rules differ from the challenge)
Source: funded account rules (help last update 09.18.2026). Required challenge≠funded callout:
| Parameter | Official help value (funded) |
|---|---|
| Profit target to keep the account | None (no deadline) |
| Payout threshold | At least 3% simulated profit before a payout request; minimum withdrawal $50 |
| Daily loss | 3%, balance-based (tighter than the challenge’s 4%) |
| Maximum drawdown | 6%, trailing equity until it locks at starting balance (challenge used static 6%) |
| Consistency | 25% — checked at payout request; does not cancel the account; request stays ineligible until the ratio is met |
| Reward split | 80% (does not increase over time on this programme) |
| Scaling | None at launch |
On a $50,000 example from the same help page: challenge floor stays fixed at $47,000; once funded, the floor trails 6% behind equity until it locks at $50,000. That is a real rule change after pass — do not treat the challenge as a dress rehearsal for funded risk.
Trading rules and restrictions (help last update 09.18.2026) state 1:30 leverage on both stages; at launch there are no add-ons, no scaling, no cTrader, and no max risk-per-position rule. Standard FT+ trading rules still apply (including bans on latency/exploit strategies and copy trading between unrelated traders). Getting-started help names MT5 and Match-Trader and repeats the simulated-funds disclaimer.
Other programmes (orientation only)
FTP marketing and peer matrices also name 1-Step Express and Instant Funding. Full official fee/rule cards for those were not archived here — treat as Pending, and follow FTP’s live programme pages rather than peer promo grids.
Fees — what we can cite vs Pending
| Citeable now (10 Nov 2026 Asia/Hong_Kong) | Status |

Geo and eligibility
QuantKit does not promise that you can join Funded Trading Plus, or that a referral will pay.
FTP publishes a prohibited countries list (help last update 08.26.2026) — Afghanistan through Zimbabwe on that dated page, including Iran, North Korea, Russia, named Ukraine regions, Viet Nam, and others. The firm may update the list; QuantKit’s summary is not authoritative — use FTP’s help page.
Disclosure also states that prohibited-country referrals pay $0. A Referral button here is not permission to open an account. Check FTP’s own eligibility pages and disclosure before you act. This page is not legal advice.
Honest limits and cons
- Simulated capital. Evaluations and “funded” stages use virtual funds; Rewards follow firm T&Cs.
- Fee at risk on fail. Challenge fees (and Activation’s $4) are paid whether you pass or not; Activation’s larger fee is only due on pass, but you can still lose the challenge fee.
- Programme rules differ. Static vs trailing, consistency on or off, and challenge vs funded edges are not the same across 2-Step Classic and Activation — and Activation funded rules tighten after pass (daily 3%, trailing max DD, 25% consistency at payout).
- Hard edges on 2-Step Classic. Consistency soft-fails keep you trading; daily/max loss and the 3% symbol-loss rule can close the account.
- Peer fee tables lag. QuantKit prefers dated official cites; peer promo prices are not QuantKit facts.
- No QuantKit-measured pass rate (
source missing). This page will not invent payout totals, typical profits, or “funded in X days.” - Not a broker. FTP is a prop / simulated-evaluation firm. Do not invent regulator-as-broker framing.
How this sits next to QuantKit prop tools
Before you pay any evaluation fee, QuantKit’s prop-challenge validate page is about replaying rules against a backtest — a method page, not firm affiliation. The Prop Risk Panel / trade manager page describes a trader-entered risk tool; it is not affiliated with Funded Trading Plus. Neither page promises that tools make you pass.
Start a challenge (secondary Referral)
If you have read the rules, fees, simulated-account honesty, and geo notes above and still want to start with Funded Trading Plus, here is the disclosed path. QuantKit may earn an affiliate commission if you buy via this link; you pay the same public price unless FTP’s own discount code says otherwise. No headline commission rate here — see disclosure.
QuantKit does not promise you can join. Eligibility is FTP’s. Prohibited-country referrals pay $0. Check FTP’s prohibited countries help and disclosure before you act.

FAQ
What is this page about?
A rules-first Funded Trading Plus review for traders comparing evaluations before they pay. It covers 2-Step Classic and Activation Accounts from official pages, states that accounts are simulated, and labels missing fees instead of inventing them. Referral rates are on disclosure, not as a headline percentage here.
Are Funded Trading Plus accounts simulated or live capital?
Simulated. Official pages state that challenges are simulated evaluations; no real trading capital is provided or traded; traders are compensated based on simulated profits under firm T&Cs.
What is the difference between 2-Step Classic and Activation Accounts?
2-Step Classic is a two-phase evaluation with published 7%/7% targets on the official card, 4% daily / 8% static max loss, consistency on both challenge and funded stages, and an upfront total fee (the $100k card showed $549.00 USD when fetched). Activation Accounts are one phase with a $4 challenge fee, activation fees only on pass, a 2% challenge target, and different funded-stage rules (tighter daily loss, trailing max DD, 25% consistency at payout).
Can anyone join, and does a QuantKit referral always pay?
No. FTP publishes prohibited countries. QuantKit does not promise you can join. Disclosure states prohibited-country referrals pay $0. A Referral button is not permission to open an account.
How does QuantKit get paid on Funded Trading Plus links?
From 9 November 2026, FTP is a disclosed Affiliate (campaign_id=7, ref_id=789). A Referral link with rel="sponsored" may earn QuantKit a commission under programme terms summarised on disclosure. No headline percentage on this article. QuantKit does not adjust rule tables or wording for partners.
Is Funded Trading Plus “legit”?
Answered here with simulated-account honesty and a disclosed affiliate relationship — not Trustpilot hero stats or invented payout totals. Read FTP’s terms and eligibility pages; weigh that QuantKit may earn if you buy via Referral. QuantKit-measured pass rate: source missing.
