Blink Funding sells paid trading assessments in three formats: a 1-Step, a 2-Step and a 3-Step Evaluation. Account sizes run from $5,000 to $500,000, and the test fee depends on the programme and the account size. The home page shows no time limit for any of the three programmes.
Traders who pass move to what the firm calls a Live Account. Its FAQ says the capital in that account is notional and may not match the capital held with the broker, and its Terms say the company does not give you the opportunity to invest actual currency. The headline profit share is "up to 90%", but the home page says the standard share is 75% and that 90% needs an add-on purchase.
The Terms and Conditions name the Prop Account Group of Companies, which includes Forest Park FX LTD, Prop Account LLC and Prop Account Cayman. The FAQ says card charges appear under the name Dashboardanalytix.com.

The home page lists seven account sizes for each programme, from $5,000 to $500,000. The site calls each price a "Test Fee". The pages we saw do not say whether the fee is charged once or on a recurring basis. Under the 1-Step and 2-Step price lists the home page mentions a checkout code, BLINK20. The table shows the prices as displayed on the cards.
| Account size | 1-Step | 2-Step | 3-Step |
|---|---|---|---|
| $5,000 | $75 | $60 | $50 |
| $10,000 | $125 | $110 | $80 |
| $25,000 | $275 | $250 | $175 |
| $50,000 | $450 | $375 | $350 |
| $100,000 | $850 | $550 | $375 |
| $250,000 | $2,200 | $1,300 | $900 |
| $500,000 | $4,500 | $3,000 | $1,800 |
The Terms limit traders to one active account per assessment level, unless the company gives prior written approval. The home page also invites visitors to try the trading platform for free.
The table shows the rules on the home page programme cards.
| Programme | Profit target | Daily loss limit | Maximum drawdown | Virtual leverage (card) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1-Step | 10% | 5% | 6% trailing | Up to 1:20 (options available) |
| 2-Step | Test 1: 10%; Test 2: 5% | 4% | 8% static | Up to 1:30 |
| 3-Step | 5% in each of Tests 1, 2 and 3 | None | 5% static | Up to 1:10 (options available) |
All three programme cards show no time limit and a 30-day inactivity period in which you must place a trade. The FAQ says an account with no trade for 30 days is treated as inactive and breached.
For the 1-Step and 2-Step programmes, the daily loss limit is measured from the previous day's balance, which resets at 5 PM EST. On the 1-Step, the 6% maximum drawdown trails the closed balance, not equity, until the account has made a 6% return; it then stops trailing and is locked at the starting balance. On the 2-Step, the maximum drawdown is 8% of the starting balance and does not trail. On the 3-Step, it is 5% of the starting balance and does not trail. The FAQ confirms that the 3-Step has no daily loss limit. The FAQ page also shows, under more than one programme tab, the 1-Step answers on a 5% daily loss limit and a 6% trailing drawdown. We used the programme cards and the programme-specific answers above.
The FAQ separates hard and soft breaches: a soft breach closes the trades that broke the rule but you can keep trading; a hard breach fails the assessment or removes the Live Account. Breaching the maximum drawdown is a hard breach.
A stop loss is required on every trade; a trade placed without one is closed, as a soft breach. A "No Stop Loss" add-on, which the FAQ lists as "10% Cost", removes this requirement.
The FAQ says all trades must be closed by 3:45pm EST on Friday and are closed automatically otherwise, as a soft breach. A "Hold Over Weekend" add-on ("10% Cost") removes this requirement. The home page cards show "Hold & Trade through Weekend" as "YES (Options Available)"; we used the FAQ, which gives the rule and the add-on.
The FAQ caps open lots "with risk": 2.5 lots on $25K, 5 on $50K, 10 on $100K, 25 on $250K and 50 on $500K. If you exceed the cap, the system liquidates all trades that currently have risk. The home page gives a different limit under the 2-Step and 3-Step cards: open lots must not exceed 1/3,333th of the account size, for example about 3 lots on a $10,000 account.
The FAQ says the Live Account follows the same rules as the assessment, but has no profit target. The firm also reserves the right to limit open positions in the Live Account at any time.
The Terms list prohibited trading that includes exploiting errors or latency in the broker's pricing or platforms, using non-public or insider information, and front-running trades placed elsewhere. Third-party or off-the-shelf strategies, or strategies marketed to pass challenge accounts, are prohibited. So is using one strategy to pass the assessment and a different one in the funded account. Arbitrage between an assessment account and another account, with the company or a third party, is prohibited.
The FAQ adds two rules for equity CFDs: holding a single-share equity CFD into that company's earnings release, and entering an equity CFD near the close to profit from the gap to the next open. Single-share equity CFD positions must be closed by 3:50 pm Eastern Time on the day of an after-market release, or the day before a pre-market release; a breach of this rule is a hard breach.
The Terms say prohibited trading ends your participation and may mean forfeiting fees paid. Before a trader receives a funded account, the company and the broker review the trading for prohibited activity.
On news trading the pages disagree. The FAQ says you can trade during news as long as the broker keeps providing pricing, with stocks going into earnings not allowed. The Terms say opening a position within 3 minutes before or after a News Event is prohibited, with penalties that can include removal of the profit and loss, reduced leverage or a breach, and the company decides what counts as a News Event. We treat the 3-minute rule in the Terms as applying, as it is the more specific statement.
Expert Advisors are allowed, subject to the prohibited trading policy.
Your first withdrawal from the Live Account can be requested at any time; after that, you can request a withdrawal every 30 days. Withdrawals are requested in the trader dashboard and paid into a Deel account, from which you can withdraw by the methods Deel offers.
The FAQ example of a $16,000 withdrawal pays the trader $12,000 and the firm keeps $4,000, which is a 75% share to the trader. The home page says the standard 75% share can be raised to 90% with an add-on purchase; we did not see the price of that add-on.
When a withdrawal is approved, the firm also withdraws its share, and the maximum trailing drawdown locks at the starting balance. The FAQ warns that withdrawing all gains will therefore breach the drawdown and forfeit the Live Account. If a Live Account has a hard breach while it holds gains, the FAQ says you still receive your portion of those gains.
After passing, you complete a Trader Agreement and AML/KYC documents; the FAQ says the Live Account is then typically issued within 24-48 business hours. Deel issues the trader agreements and processes withdrawals. Traders on a Live Account are treated as independent contractors and are responsible for their own taxes.
The home page advertises "Guaranteed Payouts", while the Terms say the company makes no promise, guarantee or warranty as to monetary payments.
The FAQ says the firm's risk technology works with DXtrade, Match-Trader and cTrader, and that the platforms, pricing and execution come from its broker, ThinkMarkets. You must use an account the firm provides.
Tradable products include forex pairs, CFD indices, metals, equity shares, US stocks and cryptocurrencies; new US IPOs are not available. The accounts are the broker's RAW accounts, with commissions on forex and equity share CFDs and none on other products. Trading hours are set by the broker.
The FAQ gives leverage of 10:1 on forex, metals and indices, 5:1 on equity shares and 2:1 on crypto, with forex and metals at 20:1 if the Double Leverage Add-on is bought. The home page cards show different figures (up to 1:20 on the 1-Step, 1:30 on the 2-Step and 1:10 on the 3-Step), and a note under the 1-Step card says leverage can be raised to 20:1 on FX and metals with an add-on. Check the leverage on your account before trading.
The FAQ says the firm may act as the direct counterparty to some trades and states that this creates a potential conflict of interest. It says pricing and executions come from the broker and are not changed by the firm. A trader dashboard updates metrics roughly every 60 seconds, and the FAQ says monitoring breach levels is the trader's responsibility.
The Terms and Conditions are issued by the Prop Account Group of Companies, described as Prop Account, d/b/a Dashboard Analytix, Forest Park FX LTD, Prop Account LLC and Prop Account Cayman. Contact addresses are given for Forest Park FX LTD in Oakham, England; Prop Account LLC in Boca Raton, Florida; and Prop Account LC in Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands. The Terms show an effective date of April 23, 2024.
They say no live trading is provided directly by the company, and that traders who pass are allocated capital in a live account under a Trader Agreement. The home page says the firm does not "believe in demo accounts" and that funded traders trade live markets.
Disputes go to arbitration in Florida under Florida law. The FAQ says traders from all countries except OFAC-listed countries are accepted, subject to applicable laws. You must be at least 18, or the minimum legal age in your country, to buy an assessment.
The Terms say there are no refunds on any services; the refund policy in the same Terms adds that no refund is given once login details are emailed, but that in some special circumstances a refund is given if no trades were placed. Clients who improperly dispute charges or file chargebacks are permanently banned.
Blink Funding may suit traders who want assessments with no time limit and who are comfortable placing a stop loss on every trade and closing positions before the weekend, or paying for the add-ons that remove those rules. The 3-Step has the lowest fees and no daily loss limit, but a 5% static drawdown. Traders who need a 90% split should budget for the profit-share add-on, as the standard share is 75%.

Blink Funding offers 1-Step, 2-Step and 3-Step assessments from $50 to $4,500, with no time limit and a standard 75% profit share that an add-on raises to 90%. Its rules require a stop loss on every trade and flat positions at the weekend unless you pay for add-ons. Its pages disagree on leverage, lot limits and news trading, so read the Terms and FAQ for your programme before buying.
