Which is cheaper: FTMO or FundedNext?

FundedNext is cheaper to enter. Its smallest evaluation account starts at $2K. FTMO's entry tier begins at $10K. Challenge fees scale with account size, so a smaller tier means a lower up-front cost. Both firms also run discount codes from time to time. Right now that is €101 at FTMO and BOGO at FundedNext.

Does FTMO have a better profit split than FundedNext?

Yes, FTMO's top profit split (80% to 90%) is higher than FundedNext's (70% to 80%). Take a $10,000 funded month with a $1,000 profit. A 90% split returns $900, versus $800 on a 80% split. That is about $100 more per month at the same risk. Note that top splits often need scaling milestones. Check the funded-phase rules before you assume you will hit the top tier on day one.

Which firm pays out faster: FTMO or FundedNext?

Both FTMO and FundedNext pay on a similar schedule (Withdrawals available on a regular basis once you reach funded status vs N/A). So the deciding factor is your withdrawal method. Crypto and Skrill clear in hours. Bank wires add 1 to 3 business days at either firm.

Can I trade at both FTMO and FundedNext?

Yes. FTMO and FundedNext are independent firms, and neither requires exclusivity. You can hold a funded account at both at once, as long as you respect each firm's rules on each account.
