Account Types Overview
AFT Funded offers three distinct pathways designed to match your trading style and career goals. Whether you prefer a fast-track approach or a steady, structured climb, we have the right architecture for your success.
Each of our challenges is available in two specialized configurations: the Safe Plan and the Pro Trader Plan. Both plans are designed to reward success, offering a full refund of your initial fees upon reaching the funded stage (with the exception of the 1-Step Sprint).
1. The 1-Step Challenge - Sprint
The fastest route to becoming a funded trader.
Designed for experienced traders who want to prove their skills quickly and gain access to capital in the shortest time possible. With only one evaluation phase, the Sprint requires precision and focus to cross the finish line.
- Best for: High-conviction traders and those with a proven, aggressive edge.
- Key Benefit: Direct path to funding with a single profit target.
2. The 2-Step Challenge - Bridge
The industry standard for professional evaluation.
The Bridge is designed to demonstrate performance across two distinct phases. This pathway balances speed with discipline, ensuring you are fully prepared to manage live capital.
- Best for: Systematic traders who value a structured progression.
- Key Benefit: Lower profit targets per phase compared to the 1-Step.
3. The 3-Step Challenge - Ascent
The structured journey for disciplined growth.
The Ascent is our most comprehensive evaluation, broken down into three manageable steps. This challenge is built for those who prioritize long-term risk management and want to build a robust track record.
- Best for: Risk-aware traders and those focused on long-term sustainability.
- Key Benefit: The most flexible risk parameters and conservative targets.

- 2-Step (Bridge) and 3-Step (Ascent): Both Safe Plan and Pro Trader Plan are fully refundable.
- 1-Step (Sprint): Due to the accelerated nature and high-leverage opportunity of this model, the initial fee is not refundable for this specific challenge.
