Funded Futures Family

This firm is somewhat ok for beginners to build experience trading prop firms. After 8-9 months, overall I am displeased with the outcome of requesting payouts on a somewhat consistent basis. When I was still new to fff I was able to withdraw 1-2 payouts in a row before getting moved to live. Once this higher stage transition occurs, and you blow the account, you will at maximum earn 1 payout before being forced into the higher stage once again, also some traders get forced into a "cooling period" where you cannot make new purchases for 45-60 business days after you blow a live. This isn't the problem, the problem I have now encountered is that any new payouts I qualify for in the sim funded stage are no longer profits I can withdraw. I am being told any new payouts will now be allocated to the higher stage as drawdown instead of a payout. To put it in perspective I have to string together a consecutive $12250 in trading profits in order to pass an eval, earn on a funded account, then earn again on a "pro" account to withdraw 50% of the "pro" balance at 80/20 split, which is also capped at 5k profits. So if you make this $12250 without blowing through the same eval->funded->pro, you will receive $1960 payout. $9250 in sim funded profits for $1960 payout. Pro is not a live account, it's the precursor to the live account, and it is still a sim account. So you go from 4 sims paying you out at 90/10, to just 1 paying you at 80/20. And once your pro transitions into a live, your still limited to withdrawing 50% of profits at 80/20 for the first 20 days. This is not to mention the extra waiting periods, the fees etc. It's a headache and not rewarding whatsoever. Complete nonsense, if you trade well with this company you will be penalized. They will try to play it off and convince you its for "long term profitability" and "performance", but on paper this means your opportunity to earn any money is now much harder. This is clearly a newer addition to their "structure" as they call it, in reality its to save as much as possible by slowly filtering out more and more traders who get payouts, so they are left with traders who just spend money and don't qualify for payouts. Going live with this firm is not an achievement, their parameters to go live is just a single payout. Usually firms have a much higher criteria in order to go live, but with this firm all you need is one payout, within the past few months an influx of live invitations have came through to fff customers who receive just one payout. That should tell you enough about this company, if you are just starting out, there's definitely better firms out there who have better payout criteria, and won't move you up to live each time you qualify for a payout. "long term", "performance", "sustainability", is not found here as they claim, you will only get penalized for doing well. Take your money elsewhere.

The company clearly advertises that traders who meet the evaluation criteria will receive a funded account. I completed the challenge in accordance with the published rules and met the required performance targets. Despite fulfilling the stated conditions, I was not granted the funded account. When I requested clarification, I did not receive a transparent explanation or documented evidence of any rule violation. Instead of resolving the issue, the company avoided addressing the core problem. After I initiated a bank dispute due to failure to deliver the contracted service, my account was immediately and permanently terminated. I was told that filing a dispute violates their Terms of Service. The original issue — failure to provide the funded account after successful completion — was never properly addressed. From my experience, this raises serious concerns about the transparency, fairness, and legitimacy of this company’s business practices. Customers are required to pay substantial upfront fees, yet delivery of the advertised funded account appears discretionary and unsupported by clear justification. Due to the severity of this situation, I have filed formal complaints with consumer protection and financial regulatory authorities so this matter can be formally investigated. I am also pursuing recovery of all paid amounts through financial dispute channels. I strongly urge anyone considering this company to proceed with extreme caution and to carefully evaluate the risks before making any payments.

I would never use them again. Their rules clearly state micro scalping is allowed as long as it’s not more than 50% of your profits. I micro scalped 3 days out of 9 ( due to high volatility in GC my daily goal is $1,000 per account) and since that happened on my first day they wiped me out of $7,000 and reset my account only after I requested a payout. Instead of letting me get the account to under 50% just as they would do on their consistency rule. I asked them multiple times to show me where in the rules does it say they would reset the account to the day prior of when the micro scalping incident happened, they couldn’t show me because it doesn’t exist. Shady shit, I didn’t care about the payout getting denied but to wipe me of $7,000? Insane. All I needed was an extra 1800 to get to 48% of profits but they were not having that. Really shady, I wouldn’t recommend this firm to anybody. Think about it, if you allow microscalping as long as it’s not more than 50% of your profits or trades why would you reset someone’s account to the day before any microscalping activity was detected? That doesn’t make sense, it’s either you allow it or you don’t. Go trade on lucid they are clear and cut with their rules.

I've been trading with prop firms since 2021 and this has been the worst experience of all of them. I had two funded accounts with over 15k combined profit that I planned to withdraw as payouts over time. They moved me to a pro account (not even live like other prop firms did to me over the years) and removed all my existing profits that I had. What pisses me off the most is that I check regularly discord and X and they said nothing about these PRO accounts, it is basically hidden and retroactive. I told them I wanted to keep in SIM not go to pro, but this was an option, this was their reply: "Once a Professional Stage invitation is issued, your evaluation phase is considered completed. The next step in the program is to operate under the Professional Stage, which involves trading under real capital conditions. At that point, your Simulated Funded Accounts enter a transition process and, once that process is completed, those SIM accounts are closed and are no longer available for trading. You cannot continue trading on the SIM accounts after the invitation is issued. Any payout request that was already submitted and approved before the transition will continue normally. However, simulated profits that were not locked in through an approved payout do not carry over. Simulated profits are not paid out, are not transferred, and are not converted into drawdown or balance in the Professional account. The Professional account is a new structure with its own starting balance, drawdown, and risk parameters. Your simulated profit does not become drawdown credit or tradable capital in Pro. Remaining in SIM is not an option once the Professional Stage invitation is issued. The Professional Stage is the required path forward to continue trading within the program. Best regards, Risk Management Team Funded Futures Family" Since I had no other option, I accepted, I could only trade 1 contract which is very low me, and I had DLL which I did not had in my SIM funded account. And this is not the worst part. The worst part is that I went into a 50% of the available drawdown (still had $4,493 of drawdown available) and they moved me to another program called PCA, which nobody knows, which it is not available in their main website, which is nowhere to be found on discord and X. this is their email: "Hi, As part of our ongoing risk oversight within the FFF Live Program, we are writing to inform you that your Pro/Live account has reached a predefined risk threshold and has been temporarily placed on hold. To continue forward, you will now transition into a Performance Check Account (PCA). The PCA is a structured performance review designed to confirm consistency and risk control before resuming Live trading. This is a standard step within the Pro/Live Program and is not a penalty. Performance Check Account Requirements To successfully complete the PCA, you must meet all of the following criteria: Achieve $10,000 in realized profit Maintain a minimum Profit Factor of 1.5 Profit Factor is calculated as: Profit Factor = Gross Profits ÷ Gross Losses Complete 10 winning trading days, each with at least $200 in realized profit Do not hit the Maximum Loss Limit (MLL) of $2,000 Remain fully compliant with all risk and drawdown rules during the PCA What Happens Next If the PCA is successfully completed: Your Live account will be reactivated, and your balance will be restored to the level it held at the time the PCA was initiated. You will then continue in the Live Program. If the PCA is not completed: The Live account will be closed. You may continue trading with FFF at any time by entering a new evaluation. Please note that each Live account is eligible for one Performance Check Account. If you have any questions regarding the PCA process, you may reply directly to this email. Best regards, Risk Management Team Funded Futures Family" Basically they robbed me all my SIM funded profits + sent me to a shitty PRO account which is not even live capital + once in a small drawdown they sent me to a worse account called PCA. Everybody should know this is a scam firm, and once you have success they will remove all your sim profits and send you to another SIM account which if you experience a dradown they will send you to an even worse account.

After receiving one payout, and meeting most of the objectives for the second payout, they froze my accounts to prevent that second payout. I had 4 accounts with $16k balance in each account at the time they froze them. Well over $60k. My accounts were perfectly in compliance. They offered to move me to a live account with $2k and trade micros. Not worth the time and effort. I haven't traded with them since. Just be warned that the advertised promise of tiered payouts is a lie.
