QT Funded Review: Rules, Profit Split & Payouts
QT Funded is a prop firm from Quant Tekel offering three ways to get a funded account: the QT ONE 1-step challenge, the QT TWO 2-step challenge and QT INSTANT instant funding, with account sizes from $5K to $200K on MetaTrader 5 or TradeLocker. Its headline selling point is payouts every 4 days on QT ONE and QT INSTANT, and QT ONE is built as a one-target evaluation: a 6% profit target, a 6% static drawdown, no consistency rule, no news rule and no minimum trading days. Profit splits run from 70% to 100% depending on the program, traders can scale to up to $300K in simulated capital, and QT Funded reports more than $17m in rewards paid to over 125,000 traders, with a Trustpilot rating of 3.9 out of 5 from 13,012 reviews.
The QT Funded rules differ by program. The QT ONE 1-step challenge has a 6% profit target, a 6% static maximum drawdown and a 70% profit split, for accounts from $5K to $100K. The QT TWO 2-step challenge needs 8% in phase 1 and 5% in phase 2, allows an 8% maximum drawdown, pays an 80% profit split and runs on a 14-day payout cycle, for accounts from $10K to $200K. QT INSTANT skips the evaluation entirely, with a 6% trailing drawdown and a 100% profit split. Two newer plans sit alongside them: QT Power, a low-cost 2-step challenge that allows news trading, and a Buy Now Pay Later plan with a $200 activation fee.
On funded accounts, the QT Funded plan comparison lists a stop-loss rule of 60 seconds, a 1% maximum floating loss, 4 profitable days before a payout and a 7-day inactivity rule, without making clear which plan each rule applies to. QT Funded is part of Quant Tekel, whose South Africa-based brokerage states it is regulated by the FSCA under licence 53227. A September discount of 60% off plus a free full-size account runs until 30 September.

Is QT Funded legit?
Prop Firm Pal has not verified QT Funded, so this is not an endorsement: it is what the record shows. Its own pages give its location as South Africa. It was founded in 2024. It cites Quant Tekel brokerage: FSCA licence 53227. Its website has been active in Prop Firm Pal's monthly traffic record since November 2025, and traffic over the last three months is falling sharply. It claims $17m+ paid to traders; that is its own figure, and we have not seen its payout records.

QT Funded web traffic, month by month
Prop Firm Pal has tracked QT Funded's website traffic every month since November 2025. In August 2026 the site received an estimated 446.53K visits, down 34% on the month before and down 41% over three months.
Its busiest month on record was December 2025 at roughly 1.60M visits. Traffic now is 72% below that peak.
A fall of this size over a quarter is the pattern that most often precedes a firm winding down, though it is not proof of it on its own — marketing spend, seasonality and a single lost traffic source all produce the same shape. It is worth weighing before paying for an evaluation.
These are third-party estimates of website visits, collected once a month and stored against the month they describe. They are not trader counts, funded-account numbers or revenue.

How QT Funded compares in size
Measured on estimated monthly website visits for August 2026, QT Funded ranks 37 of the 477 prop firms Prop Firm Pal tracks — larger than 92% of them, at roughly 446.53K visits a month.
The ranking covers every firm measured between June 2026 and August 2026, each on its own latest reading in that window. Firms last measured before June 2026 are left out rather than shown with a stale figure, so the total moves month to month.
Size is not quality. A large firm is one that markets successfully, and several of the most visited firms in this ranking have the strictest rules; some of the smallest pay out reliably to everyone who asks. What the ranking is useful for is scale — whether you are looking at an established operation or something very new.
