FunderPro 

I first started trading with Funder Pro over a year ago in February 2025. At the time they were offering daily payouts on Funded accounts so were quite an attractive company to deal with, despite their high targets and consistency rules. I managed to get funded and enjoyed several payouts from them, the payments were processed quickly and without any problems. Eventually I lost my funded account and decided to try again. Unfortunately by this time I think Funder Pro were realising their risk model did not work and I could see how they were tweaking their product and starting to penalise successful traders. I have just passed another funded stage but was immediately banned and access to my dashboard revoked. Absolutely nothing had changed about my trading style over this year long period but suddenly I found myself accused of activities that "rely on asymmetric profitability". Sadly, Funder Pro have sunk to the lower end of the prop firm market and are handing out nonsense reasons for banning successful traders. They seem to be more interested in clients who keep paying them fees and continue to lose. Please avoid dealing with this company if you are a serious and consistent trader. P.S. At the time of submitting this review, Funder Pro's Trust Pilot rating is unavailable due to a breach of Trust Pilot's guidelines. This tells you all you need to know.

I am sharing my experience for transparency and for the benefit of other traders considering this firm.

My funded account was permanently terminated following a compliance review. The stated reason was a violation of Clause 13.4 relating to VPN/VPS usage and “masked or inconsistent connection locations.”

For clarity:

I am a verified resident of Hong Kong.
My KYC documentation accurately reflects this.
I did not access the platform from any restricted country.
During temporary travel, I accessed my account exclusively through a Hong Kong-based VPS.
The Philippines (where I was traveling) is not listed as a restricted jurisdiction.
Their published guidance states VPN/VPS usage is permitted provided access is not from a restricted country.
Despite providing clarification, offering documentation, and requesting specific identification of what jurisdiction was allegedly concealed, the decision was upheld and labeled “final,” without detailed explanation of what origin was misrepresented.

I want to be clear that I did not attempt to conceal my residency or bypass geographic restrictions. My VPS location matched my verified country of residence.

Traders should be aware that even when operating in reliance on published VPS policies, compliance interpretations may differ at the review stage.

I remain open to constructive dialogue and would welcome a transparent clarification of how Clause 13.4 was specifically applied in my case.

The best company to scam you and close your account when you request a payout for a fake reasons like ip sharing , account sharing, arbitrage

I am sharing my experience so it cannot be dismissed as an unverified account. My trading account number is 20999.

I traded on a swing account using the same strategy throughout, holding trades over hours and days with normal market risk and both profits and losses.

On two previous payout requests, I was initially told I had broken rules. However, after I provided my full trade history, both decisions were reviewed and overturned, and I received my payouts.

When I requested my third payout (approximately $3,192), my account was flagged again—this time for “arbitrage trading”—and my payout was denied and the account closed.

I asked for clarification and evidence, but I have not been provided with any specific trade-level explanation showing how my activity qualifies as arbitrage. Based on my understanding, my trades do not match typical arbitrage strategies, as they were held over longer periods and involved normal market risk.

What I find difficult to understand is that the same trading approach was previously reviewed and approved after I provided evidence, but has now been treated differently.

At this point, I am simply looking for a clear explanation and resolution. I would advise others to make sure they fully understand how trading activity is assessed and how decisions are made regarding payouts.

FunderPro is make a concerted effort to remove negative reviews and even starting a campaign to defend themselves. DO NOT BELIEVE THEM. They are running the typical prop firm SCAM of doing anything necessary to deny a payout when it comes time to pay.

I was a funded trader with them, and when it came time to payout, I received an email stating I violated their trading standards and they closed my account. I did not violate any of their stated parameters - merely logged in from other ip addressees - common as I travel.

If there were a way to post the transaction history, I would do it here.

There are many other prop firms out there that are legitimate and pay out, you would be better off using them. FunderPro is dedicated to taking your money on challenges, and doing everything possible to deny you a payout when it comes time.

I'm a funded trader at Funder Pro. I completely disagree with any reviews or issues reported by some accounts, as payouts are paid regularly and, being a very serious company, they have strict rules—and they're right. So, if you have strange trading habits and think trading is a game, you'd better change your game and get a PlayStation 5 so you can have fun. Their Italian manager, Giuseppe Papaleo, is tops. I have to compliment him on how he manages and supports any issues or questions, with the utmost professionalism. Thank you for your support in my growth.

Previously, the Funder Pro company was very good and paid out according to the rules. But currently, the company has started scamming on a large scale. They have breached two of my funded accounts. When I send a payout request, their drama begins. They scam people in two ways: first, margin rules—if someone cannot manage it, then they use IP address rules to scam you. This is a 100% scam company.

These guys have went downhill very fast. I belong to a group of traders and we ALL communicate good and bad experiences with Prop Firms. By far the one prop firm that keeps on refusing payouts for no valid reason is these guys. Utter and bitter shame as they have been so good for so long.
none of us, 500+ people in the group will ever use FunderPro again. Please be warned, the likelyhood of you getting a payout is extremely low. Together we should root out the scammers! Shame on you FunderPro !

I am extremely disappointed with FunderPro. After passing my challenge and signing the funded contract on March 3rd, my account was suddenly closed. They claim "shared access" based on a legacy MQID (52A4D***) from a VPS I used BEFORE their rule changes. I have provided logs proving that since mid-February, I have been trading exclusively from my residential Italian IP (90.173.142.140) on my personal hardware.

Most importantly: they are REFUSING to refund a second $200k Challenge (Account #22241727) which has NEVER been used. 0 trades executed. They deleted my account access to hide the evidence and have ignored my emails since March 17th. This is an illegal withholding of funds for a service never rendered. I have already initiated a chargeback through my bank (GnosisPay) and reported the case to the MFSA. Traders, be careful: they will use technicalities to keep your money.

UPDATE 16/04/2026

FunderPro’s reply is a weak attempt to distract from their own breach of agreement.

CONVENIENT SILENCE ON THE REFUND: You completely ignored the €626.21 refund you admitted to owing me in writing on March 22nd (Account #22241727). That account had ZERO TRADES. Your MQID excuse is irrelevant there. You promised a refund and you didn't pay. This is withholding money for services never rendered.

RETROACTIVE RULES ON 200K ACCOUNT: Regarding my funded account, I traded strictly according to your rules. When you unilaterally changed your Terms & Conditions, I immediately adapted. You closed my profitable account anyway, applying new rules retroactively to past activity. This is an unfair and predatory commercial practice designed to annul profits earned by successful traders.

I have already shared your public 'excuse' with GnosisPay and the Maltese authorities as further proof of your bad faith. Pay the €626.21 refund you promised.

Very disappointing experience with FunderPro.

I requested a payout on February 23rd, which was confirmed as initiated, but weeks later I still hadn’t received the funds. During this time, they also deducted the payout amount twice from my funded account, causing an unnecessary drawdown and putting my account at risk.

I contacted support multiple times and opened a ticket. Each time I received generic responses like “it’s being processed” or “it has been escalated,” but no one could give a clear answer or timeline. At one point, the ticket was even marked as “resolved” while the issue was still ongoing.

Eventually, the balance deduction was fixed, but the payout was still not received. Even after many follow-ups, they kept repeating the same scripted replies and asking me to wait, despite the request being far beyond their stated processing time.

This whole situation felt very unprofessional — poor communication, no ownership of the issue, and no transparency. As a trader relying on timely payouts, this is unacceptable.

Would not recommend based on my experience.

Account 20561
I am sharing my experience with FunderPro because I believe traders should understand what can happen even when operating fully within the stated rules.

I purchased a challenge, successfully passed it, and received a funded account. My trading approach was conservative and risk-controlled, with approximately 1–1.5% risk per trade, small position sizes relative to the account, and positions held over multiple days, including overnight. All trades included proper stop-loss placement and were based on normal market analysis.

At no point did I use arbitrage, hedging across accounts, latency trading, or any execution-based strategy.

After generating profit, my account was closed and my payout denied.

The first explanation I received referred to “asymmetrical profitability,” suggesting that my losses were somehow artificially constrained or shifted. This is difficult to understand given that my trades involved real exposure, real drawdowns, and clearly defined stop-loss levels.

After submitting a formal appeal, the explanation changed. I was then told that the issue was related to “overall return distribution across funded accounts” and a supposed “structural imbalance” between risk and profit.

This raises a serious concern: no specific trade, no concrete violation, and no measurable rule breach has ever been identified.

Instead, the justification moved from one broad concept to another, both of which are highly subjective and open to interpretation.

From my perspective, this creates a situation where a trader can:
– follow all visible rules
– manage risk conservatively
– generate profit through real market exposure

and still be denied payout based on undefined or retroactively interpreted criteria.

If the criteria for payout eligibility are not clearly measurable or consistently applied, it becomes impossible for traders to understand what is actually considered compliant behavior.

I remain open to clarification, but at this stage the decision appears to rely on discretionary interpretation rather than clear rule enforcement.

For anyone considering this firm, it is important to understand that reaching a funded account and generating profit may not be sufficient if the final evaluation is based on criteria that are not clearly defined in advance.

For full transparency, here are excerpts from the responses I received:

– Initially, I was told my profits resulted from “asymmetrical profitability” where losses were allegedly “artificially constrained or shifted,” despite my trades having real stop-losses and market exposure.

– After my appeal, the explanation changed to “overall return distribution across funded accounts” and a “structural imbalance” between risk and profit.

In neither case was any specific trade, concrete violation, or measurable breach of the rules identified.

This inconsistency in reasoning is a major concern and makes it extremely difficult for any trader to understand what is actually considered compliant.

NOT RECOMMENDED . They will flag your account for ip voilations after 1 or 2 payouts. They will not give you any proof of that. They will just share random ip numbers with hidden last3digits and will fail your funded account. Definitely not A book firm.

Well...Funderpro! I passed succesfully a 50K Challenge and got my account suspended instead of getting funded! Reason? I apparently breached a locaction rule and used VPNs, what I never did. I moved to Germany from the UK, that was my only "fault"! Now my trust in this company is completely destroyed! Asking for a refund of my succesfully passed Challenge was denied! So Funderpro stole my money on top! Avoid this company at all cost!

i was already 5 percent up in my account so i had a total of 15 percent drawdown to breach the account so i placed a trade but it had gone in negative but its okk because i had placed a stoploss andd even after that i had more 100 dollor left in my account to place another trade but suddenly i recived a email that acoount is breached so i connected there support and then they accepted also that many traders faced same issue and problem will be solved i have screenshot of chat but again next they they are saying account is breached then what is the use of supprt chat if they are not going to help in genuien conditions also then....

I've never had a hassle with this prop firm. I've used about 5 others and the others always seem to try to make it difficult to get payouts.

Also they have good customer support when you have a question.

I’m not going to lie. I had a bad experience with funder pro where I don’t know what happened. I guess there was a glitch in the system, but it basically acted as if I blew my account and I was no longer able to trade. The people have funderpro worked on fixing my account and after a couple of days were able to do it. Since then, I’ve had no problems I’ve been able to withdraw consistently and they’ve been really helpful.

Best CFD prop firm ever i will only trust this firm and not any other firm, i love this firm funderpro😍

I received a $10,000 Instant Account from FunderPro that I won for free while watching Michele Rossio’s YouTube stream. I was very grateful for the opportunity and took it seriously. I spent time and effort trading the account carefully and responsibly.

After 14 days of trading and reaching the required 15% consistency, I finally qualified for a payout. On Friday, March 14, I submitted a payout request for $333.

Today, my payout was denied and my account was closed.

They claimed two violations:

Use of shared trading environments / shared IP

Using more than 20% of available margin

Both accusations are simply not true.

First, I am the only person trading this account. I trade using my laptop and my mobile phone. When I am at home, I use my laptop connected to my home internet. When I am outside, I trade using my phone connected to mobile data. Of course this means the IP address will sometimes change, but this is completely normal. All of my logins should still show IP addresses from the Philippines, because I live in the Philippines and I do not use VPNs or IP-changing software.

Second, they claim I used more than 20% margin, but my lot sizes were very small.
The largest trade I ever opened was 0.15 lots, and I only did that once. Another time I used 0.10 lots once. Most of my trades were 0.05, 0.03, and 0.02 lots specifically to avoid over-leveraging and to stay within the 20% rule.

They provided a formula to calculate margin usage, but I cannot find any trade that violated the 20% rule.

I have already asked them to provide proof of:

• The trade that allegedly exceeded the 20% margin rule
• The IP records that supposedly show shared access

But I noticed from other reviews here that many traders never receive this proof.

Another strange thing is that they closed my entire account, so I cannot log in anymore. If a specific trading account violated a rule, why close the entire account instead of just that trading account? That raises serious concerns.

This situation is extremely frustrating. I have been struggling for 3 years trying to become a consistently profitable trader, and finally reaching a payout milestone meant a lot to me.

What makes this even harder is being accused of rule violations that I truly did not commit.

If FunderPro can show clear proof that I violated the 20% margin rule, I will accept their decision 100%. But until they provide real evidence, this feels extremely unfair.

Right now, this experience has seriously damaged my confidence and motivation as a trader.

Very disappointing experience.

This company is shit . No system for anything . They aranged a tournament but it was clearly unfair . Wasted our 1 week of precious time . The moderators were shity . They kicked out many people for just asking about the unfairness of the tournament . The moderators should be kicked out from his post ASAP . THIS can't be tolerated at all . Have a proper system first then arrange a tournament . And don't kick people out of the server for asking queries . Shiitiest property firm . Never believe them . They are scammers and liers. Only for promotion they do this shitty tournaments

My experience with FunderPro was extremely disappointing.

• 10 Feb 2026 – Requested payout ($5,017)
• Payout stayed pending for 17 days
• Support repeatedly said “wait 48 hours” with no explanation
• After 17 days they rejected the payout and closed my funded account

Reason given: “arbitrage trading.”

However:

My trades were manual

All had SL and TP

Trades lasted minutes to hours

I provided full trading logs during the appeal

They claimed “latency exploitation” but refused to provide any proof or specific trades.

After almost one month, the case was closed and the payout denied.

Sharing this experience so other traders can be aware.
