I had great experience with CK Capital. They offer multiple types of challenge accounts and also their support team is really fast and always helpful. I really recommend this prop firm.
Been waiting for a payout since October 2025, so about 9 months now... Been completely ghosted by them for about a month or so. Don't even bother buying any challenge... You won't get your money even... See more

No payout
Terrible service, been waiting for a payout for over 8 months now. Haven't received any response from them regarding the issue in over a month. Not a single reply or anything. Stay away or you will just lose your money.
Guys don’t ever buy ck accounts
Guys don’t ever buy ck accounts. Although ck have been promoting big offers cheap accounts challenges but they don’t give payout. I passed multiple challenges with ck but have gotten 0payouts with them despite having requests that is still ongoing for a month. They will separate funded traders and new users to prevent us funded traders from
exposing them to the new users they might look very generous on the outside but backend none of the funded traders are getting paid. They reuse the same names for their payout certs Everytime to “prove” to users they give payouts but none of it is true. I tried exposing them to the public but I was banned on their tele and discord chat which is ridiculous. worst propfirm I have ever traded with. Totally a scam!

Indeed I will say Ck Capital have a wonderful rule that traders are comfortable with and they help traders to afford an account with massive discount attached.
Payout
This is a terrible platform. Never use it; my payout has been stuck for two months
They are all scanning the Ck Capital business game
The most extensive train helpline
Do not use this platform
Do not trust this prop firm
I joined their discord server and when I told them I am a funded trader they separated me from the other members who are not funded yet. I had access to the funded trader chat and in there people were complaining about not getting their payouts waiting for months. And also whenever you ping the mods they will ignore you in the funded trader chat they only react to people in the normal general chat. When I found a way to tell the other members that people are complaining about their waiting time for their payouts they put me in a 24 hour time out and deleted my message.
Cheap but comes with 239 restrictions
In my last 3 years of trading career i have never seen something like this. I bought a 1 step account 50k, had to male 10% did that and then they told me to pass i need 40% consistency okey did that aswell, then they told me to get my funded account i ned to wait until i can si g a contract well they said its gonna take up to 72 "business hours, whatever that means, and after that i could only payout macimum 10% of my account size und plus i had to wait 10 business days to request my first withdrwal. Wtf yea its cheap yes but has 423 restrictions and waiting games included my wirst experience with prop firms so far is with this one never agin.

Terrible ebadxperience
Terrible experience. I paid the required fee for a live account, but I was given a demo account instead. This is completely unacceptable. I contacted support several times, provided all the necessary details, and clearly explained the issue, yet no proper solution was offered. To make matters worse, my payment has not been refunded.
I feel misled and disappointed by the lack of professionalism, transparency, and customer care. When customers pay for a service, they deserve to receive exactly what was promised. Unfortunately, that was not the case here.
Based on my experience, I cannot recommend this company. Think carefully before sending them your money.
I purchased an Instant account from CK…
I purchased an Instant account from CK Capital because I believed I would receive a real funded account. After purchasing, I discovered that the account was operating in a simulated/demo environment, which was not what I expected when buying an “Instant” account.
When I requested a refund before signing the contract or starting trading, my request was not resolved to my satisfaction. Instead of addressing my concerns, I felt that my questions were dismissed and I was even timed out in their Discord community.
The lack of clear communication about simulated trading and the refund process left me disappointed. Based on my experience, I would advise traders to carefully read all terms and confirm whether the account is simulated or live before purchasing. The firm itself states that its accounts operate in a simulated trading environment.
Customer service
Ck capital happens to be my fourth shot at a funded account and I can say that they have the fastest customer service from all four.
Looks nice
Their community looks organic and supporting staff helps fast and working hard. And their account and rules are simple and affordable.

No consistency rule really rocks
I love the 12% DD rule and especially the no consistency rule too.
It's so wonderful when you can withdraw your earnings without extra rule looking to take your hard-earned work.
I really like this firm for this.
CK capital is new but promising,
CK capital is new but promising,
No matter you ways of trading they gat you cover with various types of challenges ♥️♥️
SCAM!!!
Absolutely horrible. SCAM!!!!
They promise 10 day payouts, which by default is a long time in the prop firm space. They keep saying that the matter has been escalated and block me for asking others if they've had a problem with CK as well.
Their business models work on running discount promotions and reel more users in.
Customer Service. Horrible.
Payment. Horrible.
Honest Review From a Disheartened CK…
Honest Review From a Disheartened CK Funded Trader
I joined CK after finding Dan on YouTube. He seemed like a stand-up guy with good principles — always called out prop firms that put him on risk or didn't pay out. When I found out he had his own prop firm, I figured he would base it on the principles he displayed on YouTube.
Unfortunately, this hasn't been the case.
I am funded with 9 different prop firms. All have pros and cons, and nothing in this space is perfect. But CK has been like nothing I have ever experienced. I am actually in shock at how badly they treat funded traders. They lack professionalism, they lack transparency, they lack accountability, and they are outright liars to a level I've never seen before. Shame on all at CK!
I'm sure this will get a reply from CK saying they dispute these claims. If I could add screenshots to this post, there would be no disputing. It's actually laughable that a CK employee has the nerve to reply to any 1-star review regarding payouts. I've read them all, and every single one is a true account of how CK treat funded traders.
Everything is fine with CK until you reach the payout stage. I assume 99% of the positive reviews — definitely in 2026 — are either faked by CK staff or left by people who have not yet reached a payout.
Once you hit the payout stage, your 10 business days will pass and no payout will be received. You will then enquire when it will arrive. The answer will be "soon," as "everyone trades differently, therefore some reviews take longer to process." Okay — benefit of the doubt for another week, as I don't see anyone else complaining in Discord about missing payouts. However, there's a reason for that.
Once another week passes with broken promises and you mention it in the General chat on Discord, two things immediately happen:
Your message is quickly deleted after they reply asking you to keep all payout queries within your ticket.
You are disabled from commenting in General chat and moved to another chat room called "Funded Traders Chat."
This is where you realise you're not alone — and there's a reason you don't see anyone complaining about payouts in General. Their messages are deleted, they're removed from General chat, and placed in Funded Traders Chat.
In the Funded Traders Chat, every hour of every day, people are requesting three things:
Confirmation from CK Capital on when payouts will be received.
An explanation for why payouts are going past 10 business days.
An answer as to why everyone has been disabled from General chat.
None of these are dealt with just excuses.
Also worth noting: the very few people who do get paid out and are posted in "Traders Payouts" are oddly the same select few. If you scan the QR codes, the amounts do not add up — so obviously some dodgy Photoshopping is going on.
CK lack transparency. They lie to new customers who enquire about the 10 business days. The owners make their staff repeatedly lie. The website is poor and riddled with glitches and out-of-date data.
CK have the audacity to always reply with the same quote: "We have zero payout denials." Let me educate you here, CK — not paying within the 10 business days you state is denying a payout. There are hundreds of angry traders in the Funded Traders Chat who have been waiting months and months for payouts. That is denying.
Personally, I have been waiting 9 weeks for a payout. I don't expect I will ever see it.
My Advice to Anyone Reading This:
If you're thinking about taking a challenge with CK, go onto Discord and ask in General chat why the Trustpilot scores are so low. Instead of taking ownership and saying they have a long queue of traders owed money, they will give you this statement:
"We currently have had some fake reviews left which is hurting our Trustpilot score."
They are not fake. CK and all its staff are fake. If I could give zero stars, I would.
You have been warned.
False 10-Day Payout Promise — Stalling, Deflections, and Broken Timelines
I am posting this detailed review to document a clear breach of CK Capital’s advertised 10-day payout window and highlight the systematic stalling tactics used by their support staff in a private Discord payout ticket.The Complete 18+ Day Timeline Day 1: My payout was already overdue past the advertised 10-day processing window, and my trading account was locked. Within hours of opening a support ticket, I was bounced between three different moderators. They repeatedly asked for my dashboard screenshots, email, and account number. When I questioned why so many people were handling it, a moderator shifted the blame, warning me that "spamming tickets" would slow down my process—even though I only had that single ticket open. Days 2–3: A fourth agent took over the ticket, admitting the delay was "extremely long and frustrating" and "far beyond the expected timeframe." When I pointed out that I was watching later payouts get released to other users while mine was ignored, they admitted it was "difficult watching other payouts being released" and confirmed mine wasn't even assigned to a processing batch. Day 5: I provided constructive feedback, noting that advertising 10 days while taking nearly a month destroys brand trust. The agent explicitly praised my behavior, saying my feedback was fair because I was expressing it constructively rather than trying to attack the firm publicly. Days 8–10: After days of absolute radio silence, I followed up again. The agent completely abandoned the personalized tone and reverted to copy-pasted scripts, telling me that a status of "New" on the dashboard is perfectly normal. Day 18+ (Current Status): I directly confronted the staff, reminding them that my account is fully compliant, ready, and that a generic status explanation does not solve a multi-week delay. I have officially escalated the case to their service email and demanded a concrete timeline. As of today, my funds remain completely stuck in limbo.The Verdict on CK CapitalDo not be fooled by the polite tone of their Discord staff. Politeness does not pay out a trader's hard-earned profits. CK Capital's support strategy relies on trapped loops: they pass a single ticket across four different agents, praise you for "remaining professional" so you don't complain publicly, and then hit you with automated scripts when you ask for real answers.Freezing a fully compliant, passed trading account while withholding earned funds completely kills a trader's momentum. If you decide to buy a challenge here, be prepared for broken timelines, zero internal communication, and severe payout delays.
