2-Step Prop Firm Challenges

41 firms, 1125 plans, ranked November 2026. A 2-step evaluation has two profit targets in sequence, typically 8 to 10% then 5%, before the funded account opens.

As of November 12, 2026, 41 of the 86 prop firms PropTested tracks qualify. The best value is The5ers Summer Plan 2 Steps ($50K) at $99 to start, an estimated $304 until funded. Two phases take longer, but each phase is usually gentler than a 1-step target and the plans are often cheaper for the same account size.

Questions traders ask

Which 2-step plan is the cheapest to start?

FundedHive Pay From Profits 2-Step at $9 for a $5K account, checked November 12, 2026. Cheapest to start is not cheapest to get funded: the table's "cost to funded" column counts resets and fees against the simulated pass rate.

Which firm in this list has the best Trustpilot score?

FTMO, with 4.8 of 5 from 55,531 reviews, among firms with at least 100 reviews.

What does 1-step, 2-step, instant mean?

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.

How does PropTested rank these plans?

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.
