Questions about each
Earn2Trade
How much does an Earn2Trade challenge cost?+
Challenge fees are $75 to $85, with a starting payment of $75. There is no monthly subscription attached, since the account fee is $0. The price covers the evaluation itself, and any activation fee is handled separately at the first withdrawal.
Are there activation fees on top of the challenge price?+
There is no upfront activation fee. Instead, an activation fee is taken out of profits on the first withdrawal, so the first payout is smaller while the cost of entry stays at the challenge price.
Funding Pips
What does a Funding Pips challenge cost?+
Fees run $29 to $555 in total depending on the account you pick, and the site median for a challenge like this is €56.56. Because the evaluation is 2 step, the total entry cost covers a shorter route to a funded account than a longer staged process would.
How much of my profits do I keep?+
The profit split is 100%, so a funded trader keeps the whole of the profits. That is the strongest point on the sheet for anyone comparing shares, and it is why the entry fee sits above some rivals.
