Up to $500 in free stocks on your first deposit

New users only. Make a qualifying first deposit via a partner link (no promo code needed) and receive a stock-based reward within ~7 days. Two secondary sources disagree on the exact tier table ($500→$40/$10k→$500 per one source, vs. $200-499→$10 / $500-2,499→$30 / $2,500-4,999→$200 / $5,000+→$500 per another) — treat exact dollar tiers as unconfirmed pending the primary PDF. The reward's value is locked from withdrawal for 90 days (your deposit itself stays withdrawable). Live since 5 Jan 2026, EU/UK/GCC/AU scope, ends at eToro's discretion.

InstaForex

Broker · deposit

30% on every deposit (up to 40% w/ Club Bonus)

30% credited on each deposit, first-time participants only, stacks up to 40% with the separate Club Bonus tier. Bonus becomes withdrawable after X×3 InstaForex lots traded; profit itself is unrestricted once that's met. No stated minimum or maximum deposit, no stated expiry — appears to be a standing offer.

AvaTrade

Broker · deposit

Deposit bonus for non-EU/UK/AU accounts (exact terms unconfirmed)

AvaTrade advertises a deposit-matched welcome bonus, but this record has genuinely conflicting secondary sourcing: one source states a flat 20% (min deposit $1,000, expiry 31 Dec 2027), another describes a tiered table ($250→$50 up to $50,000→$10,000), and a third notes a LATAM-specific 50% variant. All sources agree on the mechanics: no promo code needed, bonus locked behind a 6-month trading-volume requirement before it becomes withdrawable, profit withdrawable anytime. As with virtually every cash deposit bonus in this industry, EU/UK/AU retail clients are understood to be excluded under ESMA/FCA/ASIC rules regardless of which tier table is correct. AvaTrade's own promotions page could not be reached (404/blocked) to resolve this — treat every specific number here as unconfirmed until re-checked directly.

Prop firm explorer

Ranked by what fails traders — not by who pays us

Two scores, on purpose: how good the firm is, and how confident we are in the data.

FTMOThe most-reviewed and, by most third-party trust rankings, the benchmark name in CFD proprietary trading challenges — Prague-based, running since 2015, with a 4.8/5 Trustpilot score across 50,989 reviews (92% five-star) and $650M+ reported paid to traders since inception. Runs a 2-Step Challenge (static drawdown, fee refunded on first payout) alongside a newer, faster 1-Step Challenge launched Feb 2026 (trailing drawdown, a 'Best Day Rule', and — easy to miss — a non-refundable entry fee). In August 2025 partnered with, and per secondary reporting completed acquiring in December 2025, the US-regulated broker OANDA — giving the FTMO group an actual regulated-brokerage arm behind its evaluation-challenge business, a scale/legitimacy signal neither of the other two prop firms on this site can claim.

The5ersIsrael-founded (2016) CFD proprietary trading challenge firm — also styled 'The5%ers' — one of the longer-running firms in the category, with a 4.7/5 Trustpilot score across 36,634 reviews (90% five-star) and a 96% reply rate to negative reviews. Runs four CFD evaluation programs (Bootcamp, High Stakes, Hyper Growth, Pro Growth) all sharing a genuinely trader-friendly trait — static, not trailing, drawdown across every program — plus a separate futures arm. Real caveats: a February 2024 suspension of new US CFD traders with no confirmed lift found, a High Stakes evaluation-fee refund that is 70% (not the commonly assumed 100%), and a documented pattern of large-payout account-termination disputes citing vague 'account integrity' language.

FundedNextOne of the largest CFD proprietary trading challenge firms by review volume and stated payouts (4.5/5 on Trustpilot from 77,610 reviews; $300M+ in claimed cumulative trader payouts). Sells four materially different CFD challenge models — Stellar 2-Step, Stellar 1-Step, Stellar Lite and instant-funded Stellar Instant — plus a newer Flex Challenge and a separate futures program. Cheap entry fees (from $59.99, refunded on first payout) and broad strategy tolerance (EAs, news trading, weekend holding) are real strengths; a documented review-manipulation finding traced to the firm's own staff and a notable irony — it restricts access from Bangladesh, its founder's home country — are real caveats.
