43 firms, 1128 plans, ranked November 2026. A 1-step evaluation has a single profit target to hit before you are funded, instead of two phases in a row.
As of November 12, 2026, 43 of the 86 prop firms PropTested tracks qualify. The best value is The5ers Summer Plan 1 Step ($100K) at $249 to start, an estimated $641 until funded. One target means fewer days and one set of rules to keep, but the single phase is often stricter (lower drawdown or a consistency rule) than phase one of a 2-step.

An evaluation is a test you pay for. 1-step has one target, 2-step has two in a row, and instant skips the test, usually for a higher price and tighter terms. Read the full explainer: 1-step, 2-step and instant accounts.
Each plan is scored out of 100 the same way whichever firm sells it: 45% cost until funded (the plan's own rules simulated 3,000 times for a trader with no edge), 35% the firm's record and 20% payout terms. Commission never enters the score. The method is published on the methodology page.
