How to read these plans
The price is what the firm charges for one attempt. The profit target and drawdown are the first phase’s; later phases and the funded account can differ, and each firm’s profile has the full rules. A plan appears only when its price, a drawdown limit and — for an evaluation — its profit target are all on record.
Rows marked sourced, not verified were read from the firm’s own website and cited, but no one at Prop Firm Pal has checked them. To see these firms ranked rather than priced, open the best 5k prop firms list, or the overall best prop firms ranking and its methodology.
FAQs — 5k accounts
Answered from the 189 plans on this page.
How much does a 5k funded account cost?
Across 138 evaluation plans priced in US dollars, a $5,000 prop firm challenge costs a median $50; the cheapest one-off price is $9 (The Trading Pit, CFD $9 Intro Challenge). Instant-funding plans are listed separately on this page because they are priced on a different basis.
What is the cheapest 5k prop firm challenge?
By cheapest evaluation at $5,000: The Trading Pit ($9, CFD $9 Intro Challenge), Maven Trading ($17, 3-Step Challenge), Traders Launch ($20, Crypto), Funded Index ($22, Momentum), Get Funded Now ($22, 2 Step). Price is not the whole cost — check the profit target and drawdown on each row, and whether a failed attempt can be reset.
What is the profit target on a 5k prop firm account?
The median first-phase profit target across these plans is 9%, which is $450 on a $5,000 account.
How much can I lose on a 5k funded account?
The median maximum drawdown is 8% — $400 on $5,000. Whether that limit is static, trailing or end-of-day changes how much room you really have; each row states it where the firm does.
What does "Sourced, not verified" mean?
The plan was read from the firm’s own website and cited, but no one at Prop Firm Pal has checked it. Verified plans have been checked against the firm’s documentation by a person. Confirm the price on the firm’s site before you buy.

What is a proprietary trading firm (prop firm)?
A proprietary trading firm, also known as a prop firm, is a company that provides traders with access to funded trading accounts. Instead of risking your own capital, you trade the firm’s funds and earn a share of the profits. Most prop firms require traders to pass an evaluation or challenge that tests consistency, risk management, and profitability before granting a funded account.
How do prop firm challenges work?
Prop firm challenges are evaluation programs where traders must meet specific profit targets while following strict risk management rules. These rules often include maximum daily drawdown, overall drawdown limits, minimum trading days, and consistency requirements. If you successfully complete the challenge and any verification phase, you can qualify for a funded trading account and receive a profit split.
