Cheapest ≠ best value. A low entry fee paired with an intraday trailing drawdown can cost you more in resets than a pricier challenge you pass first time. Use the comparison tool to weigh price against the rules, and check discount codes to push the real cost lower.

How to judge a cheap prop firm

A low price is only a bargain if the firm pays reliably and the rules suit your strategy. Before buying the cheapest option, check the drawdown type, the reset price (you may need more than one attempt), and the payout track record. A slightly pricier firm with a forgiving static drawdown and fast payouts often works out cheaper per funded dollar than the rock-bottom option.
