Entry price
Start with the current evaluation or purchase price, but do not stop there. Temporary promotions can make a high-fee path look cheaper than it really is.
Compare representative 25K futures prop firm accounts from approved partners. Focus on what actually changes the cost: current purchase price, activation fee, complete known cost, drawdown model and the promo code shown at checkout.
Partner status does not determine table order. For the broader dataset, including firms without an affiliate relationship, use the full comparison.
Full comparison →Where a partner has several 25K programs, a verified row is preferred. Within the same verification status, the lowest complete known cost is used as the representative path.

Complete known cost means current modeled purchase price plus a known activation fee. Resets, recurring evaluation charges, optional data and later-stage fees may add further cost. Rows marked review pending are shown for partner coverage but are not used for verified lowest-cost claims.
The headline balance is the same. The economics and risk rules are not.
Start with the current evaluation or purchase price, but do not stop there. Temporary promotions can make a high-fee path look cheaper than it really is.
A low evaluation price can be offset by a later activation charge. That is why this page shows purchase price and activation separately.
Static, end-of-day trailing and intraday trailing drawdown can create very different practical risk limits even when the nominal account size is 25K.
Consistency rules, payout requirements, minimum days and later-stage limits can matter more than a small difference in the evaluation fee.
The purchase price is only one part of the cost. Activation fees, resets, recurring evaluation charges and later-stage fees can materially change the total account path.
The 25K label describes the nominal account size. The practical risk budget is usually determined by the maximum drawdown, daily loss rules and funded-stage restrictions rather than the headline balance.
Not automatically. A lower entry price can be offset by activation fees, tighter drawdown mechanics, consistency rules, reset costs or payout restrictions.
Those partner rows remain useful for coverage, but they are not treated as verified for ranking or lowest-cost claims until their current source data is reviewed.
The table above uses one representative path per approved partner. The full comparison contains the wider set of modeled account variants.
