The5ers

Four funding tracks, from a low-cost bootcamp to a one-step challenge

Visit site

The5ers runs four CFD funding programs with genuinely different shapes: Bootcamp (three steps), High Stakes (two steps), and two one-step tracks, Hyper Growth and Pro Growth. Profit targets sit at 6–10% depending on the program, drawdown rules range from a forgiving daily pause to a hard daily-loss termination, and the payout split scales from 50% up to 100% as you hit milestones. Scaling runs as high as $4,000,000 on two of the tracks.

Things to check before you pay

  • The5ers does not publish a clean fee and account-size table on the rule page we read, so we are not listing one. Check the official pricing before paying.
  • No calendar deadline on any program, but an account is closed automatically after 30 consecutive inactive days.
  • Overnight and weekend holding are allowed across all four programs, and expert advisors are permitted — with latency arbitrage, tick scalping and overnight scalping excluded.
  • Bootcamp's steps are described by The5ers as demo stages.
Best for

Traders who want a choice of shapes — the cheapest entry (Bootcamp), the fastest route (one-step Hyper Growth), or the highest leverage (High Stakes at 1:100).

Figures last checked against the firms' own sites on 2026-09-18. Prop firms change targets, drawdown rules, fees and payout splits often. Treat everything below as a snapshot and confirm current terms on the firm's own page before paying an evaluation fee.

Evaluation fees are usually non-refundable if you fail, and most traders who buy a challenge never reach a payout. Nothing here is a recommendation, and prop firm rules change without notice. Read the firm's own terms before you pay.
