    $50K to funded: the cheapest $50K plan's price shown plus any activation fee, first-time pass (judged: resets, data and platform fees left out); "from" is the cheapest route at any size. Plan by plan, with every filter: the Prop Firm Finder. Drawdown, platforms, split, payouts and the like are our short reading of the firm's words (judged): hover a value for the words, or open the firm's page for the source. Who can join: how many of the countries we check the firm's own list names; pick a country (we preselect yours) for the firm's answer, not a promise: ID checks, payout providers and local law still apply.
