I purchased a $5k funded account from…

I purchased a $5k funded account from Lion Funded during their Black Friday promotion for $34, as their frequent advertisements gave me the impression that they were a reliable firm. I successfully passed both phases while adhering to all the rules. They initially promised that my account would be approved within 5 business days, but I have yet to receive any confirmation email.

I’ve emailed their support team twice, but they keep delaying with excuses like "It will be approved today" or "It will be approved tomorrow." If a prop firm behaves this way for account approval, I can only imagine how frustrating the payout process might be.

Don’t waste your time and effort. I strongly recommend staying away.

25.02.2025 edit :
I initially wrote a review about Lion Funded’s delayed account approval process, warning others about how difficult it might be to receive a payout from them. Now, I can confirm that my suspicions were absolutely correct.

After passing both phases while strictly following the rules, they suddenly claimed that I violated their trading rules and closed my account. This is an outright lie. I have Excel data proving that I did not break any of their stated rules regarding position scaling or anything else they accuse me of. Their accusations are completely baseless, and they are simply looking for an excuse not to pay traders.

Let me be clear: I don’t need their $100, but apparently, they do. May God help them. They can keep my $100—it will be my charity to them. But let this be a warning to anyone considering trading with them: stay far away. This is not a serious firm, and they have no intention of honoring their payouts.

This Prob Firm is really the Best

This Prob Firm is really the best this year 2024 because they offer a lot of things that I most Probfirm don’t offer the number thing that caught my mind is that of being paid a monthly salary and trading in their floor which I’ve been seen or heard from anywhere so they are the Best❤️

This company isnt legit

There are people who never received their payout, messages on the telegrams are getting deleted. They dont even try their best to hide it, the vesting address is on a random location in england which is just complete nonsense. Also i didnt received any payout. I want to tell everyone to stay far away from this "propfirm"

The funded lion sucks ass!

The funded lion is not a company which I’ll recommend to people. First of all the payouts, (if you even get them), take very long and with a lot of complications. They are also not very transparent about what is going on.
PEOPLE DONT FALL FOR THIS SCAMM!!!

Great company

Great company, you can do EA also you dont have to do 2 challenge, so you can get your funded account faster. They also work with a great broker. Check the website they are worth it.

By far the best prop firm in de industry. No hidden rules en fast payouts.

- HFT allowed during the challenges
- EA allowed during the challenges and funded
- Nice split profits
- 0% daily drawdown at the 1 step

This company is taking over the industry.

The Lion is one of the newer prop firms…

The Funded Lion is one of the newer prop firms out here, but they bring a nice fresh experience.
And like the king of the beasts that their name personifies, they started straight off with instant funded accounts, but now I noticed they have added the usual phase 1&2 options for those prefer the usual offerings.
In any case, so far my experience with them has been stellar.
I haven't been able to trade to the point of making a withdrawal yet, but so far they seem legit. So thumps up TFL!
