Funded Trading Plus review
Funded Trading Plus is a forex and CFD prop firm launched in 2021 and operated by Acello Ltd, a company registered in England and Wales at 30 Old Bailey in London, with its simulated accounts provided through IF Pro Ltd in Saint Lucia. Its help centre states that the business was acquired by Instant Funding in May 2026. Traders use MetaTrader 5 or Match Trader, although MetaTrader 5 is not offered in the United States. There are four programs. The 1 Step Express asks for a 10% target with a 4% daily loss limit and a 6% maximum loss that trails the closed balance until it locks at the starting balance. The 2 Step Classic needs 7% in each phase with a 4% daily limit, an 8% static maximum loss, a 3% symbol loss limit and consistency rules. Instant Funding skips the evaluation, with 6% daily and trailing limits and no weekend holding. Activation Accounts cost $4 to start, need a 2% target and charge an activation fee of $179 to $489 only after a pass. List prices run from $89 for a $10,000 2 Step Classic to $4,499 for a $100,000 Instant Funding account. Every program pays 80% as standard, all accounts are swap free, and there is no time limit, although each account must place a trade every 30 days.
Suits
Patient forex traders who keep margin use moderate and want no time limit, weekend holding and rewards every seven days.

Verdict
Funded Trading Plus's main strength is flexibility. There is no time limit on any program, news trading is permitted, weekend holding is allowed on every challenge, and all accounts are swap free. The 1 Step Express and Instant Funding accounts let traders request a first reward from day one and then every seven days, with a $50 minimum, and both can scale to $2.5 million after each 10% of new profit, or $5 million with a paid add on. Expert advisors are allowed, and traders can copy trades between their own accounts. The Activation Accounts lower the entry cost to $4, with the activation fee charged only after a pass, although the funded stage then adds a 25% consistency rule and a 10 trading day payout cycle. The trade offs sit in the details. The 6% maximum loss on the 1 Step Express and Instant Funding trails the closed balance, which leaves little room early on. The 2 Step Classic closes an account that loses 3% on a single symbol in a day and applies consistency limits of 35% and 50%. Every pass, payout and scaling request is checked by a risk team that looks at margin use and trade duration, commissions are not published, and challenge fees on the current programs are not refunded. Trustpilot shows no rating for Funded Trading Plus, stating that the rating is unavailable due to a breach of its guidelines, and lists 2,666 reviews. The firm fits patient forex traders who keep margin use moderate and want weekly access to rewards.
Payouts
80% reward split (Day 0, then every 7 days). Scales up to 100% as simulated balance grows through milestones. Add-on available: upgrade to 90% split or 3-day payout frequency. On-demand payout option for Instant Funding.

How do Funded Trading Plus Activation Accounts work?
You pay $4 to start a one step challenge with a 2% target, a 4% daily loss limit and a 6% static maximum loss. After passing, you pay the activation fee to receive the funded account, which has a 3% daily limit, a 6% trailing limit, a 25% consistency rule and payouts every 10 trading days once profit reaches 3% of the balance.
How fast does Funded Trading Plus pay out?
On the 1 Step Express and Instant Funding, the first reward can be requested from day one and then every seven days. The 2 Step Classic pays every 10 days with a minimum of 1% of the starting balance, and Activation Accounts every 10 trading days. Reviews take up to two business days, or five to seven if flagged, and payments go by crypto or Rise.
Does Funded Trading Plus allow news trading and expert advisors?
Yes. News trading is allowed on every program, but passes and payouts go through a risk review, and very large positions held for seconds around a release are likely to fail it. Expert advisors are allowed if they avoid arbitrage, grid trading and tick scalping, and you may need to submit one for approval. Copy trading is limited to your own accounts.
Does Funded Trading Plus have a scaling plan?
Yes. On the 1 Step Express and Instant Funding, each 10% of new closed profit on a funded account allows a scale to a larger balance, up to $2.5 million, or $5 million with a paid add on. The 2 Step Classic needs 20% new profit, a withdrawal and two months of trading per level, up to $2.5 million. Activation Accounts cannot scale.
