Head to head · 33 criteria compared FundedNext wins this comparison (6 against 5). and it pays out a larger share of profits, so the choice is not automatic.
A London firm founded in late 2021 and bought by Instant Funding in May 2026, Funded Trading Plus pays every 7 days on its 1-Step Express and Instant programs, with the split rising from 80 to 100% and scaling up to $5 million. The catch: intraday trailing drawdown on both, and a Trustpilot score the platform has pulled.
Criteria won: 5 / 33
On the forex and CFD side, FundedNext runs just two routes: Stellar 1-Step (10% target, 6% max loss) and Stellar 2-Step (8% then 5%, 10% max loss). Both use static drawdown, carry no deadline and come with refundable fees. Pricing is on the high side, and the headline 95% split needs a paid option — the contractual base is 80%.

Choose Funded Trading Plus if… Choose FundedNext if… Funded Trading Plus applies a trailing intraday drawdown capped at 6 %, with a 4 % daily limit. FundedNext applies a static drawdown capped at 10 %, with a 5 % daily limit. This is the single most consequential difference between the two. A static drawdown is measured once, from the starting balance, and never moves; a trailing drawdown follows your equity upward, so a winning streak raises the floor you can no longer fall below. Intraday trailing is stricter still, because it tracks unrealised peaks reached inside the session — profit you never actually banked can permanently raise your loss threshold.
Funded Trading Plus keeps 100 % of profits, then pays Every 7 days on 1-Step Express and Instant; every 10 days on 2-Step Classic. FundedNext keeps 95 % of profits, allows a first withdrawal after 5 days, then pays Stellar 1-Step: first withdrawal after 5 business days then every 5 business days. Stellar 2-Step: first withdrawal at 21 days then every 14 days. Payout frequency deserves as much attention as the split itself: a slightly lower share paid every two weeks compounds faster than a headline percentage locked behind a monthly cycle and a long first-withdrawal delay.
Funded Trading Plus is the only one of the two to offer dxtrade. FundedNext covers mt4, which its rival does not. Platform choice is not cosmetic: order execution, available order types and the reliability of your automation all depend on it, and switching mid-evaluation is rarely possible.
Funded Trading Plus has been running since 2021, 1 years longer than FundedNext. Our trust pillar scores them 74/100 and 81/100, which weighs age, corporate transparency and public payout evidence. In an industry with no financial regulator overseeing these evaluations, longevity and a verifiable payout history are the closest thing to a guarantee.
FundedNext opens at $59.99 against $89 for Funded Trading Plus, a moderate gap on the smallest account. At the reference size of 100 K the comparison is $549 for Funded Trading Plus against $549.99 for FundedNext. The headline fee is rarely the real cost, though: what matters is the price of a reset after a failed attempt, whether the fee comes back on the first payout, and whether an activation fee appears when you move to a funded account. Compare those three lines in the table above before deciding on price alone.
