Overview

Nordic Funder sells trading assessments across four asset classes: FX & CFDs, crypto, US equities and an instant-funding route. Its programmes page lists 9 tracks, with account sizes from $2,500 to $500,000 and one-time fees from $25.00. The firm describes itself as "Scandinavia's Funded Trader Programme".

Every programme pays an 80% profit split as standard; a profit-share add-on raises it to 90%. The firm says the first withdrawal has no delay once you qualify and later payouts run every 14 days. There is no deadline to pass, but accounts are subject to an inactivity limit.

The site says all assessments are conducted in a simulated environment. Its page footers name two different companies as the assessment provider, Prop Account, LLC and Forest Park FX LTD, and the Terms page we saw was marked "Awaiting counsel sign-off". We cover both points under Company and Terms.

Everything in this review comes from Nordic Funder's own web pages, saved on 7–8 October 2026. Rules and prices change, so check the firm's site before you buy.

Key highlights

Pros

  • Fees are one-time with no recurring charges; the cheapest account is a $2,500 One-Step Lite at $25.00.
  • There is no deadline to pass any assessment; the only clock is an inactivity limit.
  • Every programme pays an 80% split as standard, or 90% with a paid add-on.
  • Your own EAs and algorithms are allowed on every account, with no approval step and no surcharge.
  • The first withdrawal has no waiting period once you meet your track's minimum trading days; after that, payouts run on a rolling 14-day cycle.
  • Every track except FX One-Step uses a static maximum drawdown.

Cons

  • Fees are non-refundable, and so are add-ons bought at checkout.
  • A breach closes the account and forfeits any unwithdrawn profit.
  • Equities and Instant Funding Lite have a 3% static maximum drawdown, with intraday trailing daily limits of 1.5% and 1%.
  • Funded Lite, crypto, equities and Instant Funding accounts have a consistency rule, and equities also has one during evaluation.
  • Holding positions over the weekend needs an add-on.
  • The site names two different assessment providers, and its Terms page was marked as awaiting legal sign-off.

Programmes and prices

Nordic Funder groups its accounts into four programmes. FX & CFDs has five tracks: One-Step, Two-Step, Three-Step, One-Step Lite and Two-Step Lite. Crypto has a One-Step and a Two-Step track. Equities has one track, One-Step Daily. Instant Funding has one track, Instant Funding Lite, with no profit target and no assessment.

All fees are one-time and non-refundable, and the firm says there are no recurring or monthly charges. The terms say a fee buys one assessment attempt on the account size and track chosen at checkout. The table shows the fee for the smallest and largest account on each track, as listed on the programme pages.

TrackAccount sizesOne-time fee (smallest to largest)
FX & CFDs One-Step$5K–$500K$42.50 ($5K) to $4,887.50 ($500K)
FX & CFDs Two-Step$5K–$500K$60.00 to $2,760.00
FX & CFDs Three-Step$5K–$500K$42.00 to $1,932.00
FX & CFDs One-Step Lite$2.5K–$100K$25.00 to $750.00
FX & CFDs Two-Step Lite$2.5K–$100K$25.00 to $600.00
Crypto One-Step$2.5K–$100K$25.00 to $750.00
Crypto Two-Step$2.5K–$100K$25.00 to $600.00
Equities One-Step Daily$2.5K–$100K$25.00 to $750.00
Instant Funding Lite$2.5K–$100K$45.00 to $1,000.00

The marketing pages list three add-ons: a 90% profit share (+15%), weekend holding, and Double Leverage (+25%). The terms say add-ons are priced as a percentage of the assessment fee. The checkout page we saw for a $2,500 One-Step Lite account listed further options, including a 65% profit share at a lower price and changes to the maximum drawdown or profit target, each priced as a percentage up or down.

The firm says each account size and track is a separate product, so you can run several at once, including across asset classes.

Trading rules (by programme)

The table summarises the main rules from the firm's programme comparison tables.

Equities One-Step Daily10%3% static1.5% (intraday trailing)40% evaluation; 20% funded
Instant Funding LiteNone3% static1% (intraday trailing)20% funded

The FAQ says a static drawdown is measured from your opening balance and never moves, while a trailing drawdown follows the account's high-water mark, so the floor rises as you profit. On staged FX tracks the daily loss limit is measured on end-of-day balance; on Lite, crypto, equities and instant funding it is an intraday trailing figure, assessed live.

The consistency rule caps how much of your total profit can come from a single day. The general FAQ gives 20% for equities, while the equities page gives 40% during evaluation and 20% once funded; we used the equities page. FX Lite, crypto and equities tracks also require a minimum of three profitable days of 1%.

On a Two-Step you pass phase one, then phase two; on a Three-Step, all three in order. Each phase has its own target but shares the same drawdown limits. Breaching the maximum drawdown or the daily loss limit closes the account, and the fee is not refunded. Stop losses are not required, though the firm recommends them.

There is no time limit to pass. The inactivity limit is 30 days on staged FX accounts and 14 days on crypto, equities and instant funding. The comparison table shows no inactivity figure for the two FX Lite tracks.

Leverage

  • Staged FX & CFD tracks (One-Step, Two-Step, Three-Step): 20:1 on forex and metals, 10:1 on indices, 5:1 on oil and up to 2:1 on crypto.
  • One-Step Lite: 30:1 (60:1 with the Double Leverage add-on).
  • Two-Step Lite: 100:1 (200:1 with the Double Leverage add-on).
  • Crypto and equities: 2:1 on all instruments (4:1 with the Double Leverage add-on).
  • Instant Funding Lite: 30:1 (60:1 with the Double Leverage add-on).

Restrictions and prohibited strategies

The FAQ says strategies that exploit the simulated environment rather than the market are not permitted, naming latency arbitrage, tick scalping on stale prices and coordinated group trading across accounts. The Terms list latency arbitrage, execution on stale prices and coordinated trading across accounts held by different individuals. The Terms say ordinary discretionary and algorithmic trading, including your own expert advisors, is permitted.

The Terms page says the full prohibited-practices schedule had still to be migrated from the current client terms document.

  • Copy trading: copying your own strategy across your own accounts is allowed; coordinated trading across accounts held by different people is not.
  • EAs: your own EAs and algorithms are allowed on every account.
  • Weekends: holding positions over the weekend needs the weekend-holding add-on, and only cryptocurrencies trade at weekends.
  • Equities: trading runs from 09:30 to 15:55 ET, and the firm says positions are flattened before the closing auction.

Payouts and scaling

The standard profit split is 80% on every programme. The profit-share add-on raises it to 90% for the life of the account and costs 15% on top of the assessment fee.

You can request the first withdrawal as soon as you meet the minimum trading days for your track. Later payouts follow a rolling 14-day cycle that starts from your first withdrawal, not a fixed day of the month. A breach closes the account and forfeits any unwithdrawn profit.

  • Lock on payout: on Instant Funding Lite and equities accounts, requesting a payout locks the account until the payout is processed.
  • Withdraw buffer (Instant Funding Lite): you need to be 1.5% above your starting balance before a withdrawal is available.
  • Minimum payout (Instant Funding Lite): 1% of the account balance.

On scaling, the FAQ says each account size and track is its own product, so you can run several at once and scale up whenever you choose rather than waiting on a scaling schedule. We did not find payout methods or processing times on the pages we saved.

Platforms and markets

The FAQ lists DXtrade, Match-Trader and cTrader, all integrated via GooeyTrade, with the platform chosen at checkout. The checkout page we saw for a $2,500 One-Step Lite account showed only one platform option, PropX. We could not tell from the saved pages which platform applies to which product.

The programmes page lists forex, metals, indices, oil, crypto and US equities. The crypto programme covers BTC, ETH and alts. The firm says equities liquidity, pricing and execution are sourced directly from Nasdaq.

Spreads are raw. Commission is $7 round turn per lot on FX and metals, and $0 on indices, oil and crypto. The comparison table shows no commission figure for the two FX Lite tracks. The firm says pricing comes from an aggregated source drawn from multiple brokers and liquidity providers, and that it does not widen spreads, add markups or adjust swaps beyond what its brokers set.

Company and terms

The site says all assessments are conducted in a simulated environment and are not an offer of employment.

Section 1 of the Terms page says Nordic Funder is an affiliate of Forest Park FX LTD, which provides all funding assessments, receives the fees and signs the Trader Agreement with traders who qualify. The same pages also carry a second footer naming Prop Account, LLC as the assessment provider and "Prop Account LC" as the Trader Agreement party. We used the Terms page wording, as it is the more specific source.

The Terms page we saw opened with the notice "Awaiting counsel sign-off". It said the trader agreement clauses, dispute resolution, governing law, account-closure grounds and the full prohibited-practices schedule had still to be migrated and approved before the page goes live. The published clauses say that rule changes apply only to assessments bought after the change takes effect.

The support page we saw said support routing was still to be configured, with the Discord and portal links live in the meantime.

Who it suits

  • Traders who want a low entry cost: $2,500 accounts on One-Step Lite, Two-Step Lite, crypto and equities cost $25.00.
  • Traders who do not want a deadline: there is no time limit to pass, only an inactivity limit.
  • Traders who want to avoid a trailing drawdown: every track except FX One-Step is static.
  • Traders who would rather not sit an assessment: Instant Funding Lite is funded from day one, with a 3% static drawdown and a 1% intraday trailing daily limit.
  • Algorithmic traders: your own EAs are allowed on every account.

It suits traders less well if they want to hold over weekends without paying for an add-on, or need US equities outside the 09:30–15:55 ET session.

MyPropGenius Rating

MyPropGenius Rating: 2.8/5 — its Transparency Index score of 56/100 ÷ 20, rounded down

The rating measures how openly Nordic Funder discloses its rules, pricing, payouts and ownership (our Transparency Index methodology). It does not measure how likely you are to pass or be paid.

Is Nordic Funder legit?

The pages say clearly that assessments are simulated, but the contracting party is unclear: the About page and Terms name Forest Park FX LTD with no number or jurisdiction, while the site-wide footer says assessments are provided by Prop Account, LLC. There is no separate refund page, but the Terms, the risk disclosure, the FAQ and the line under every price all say the same thing: the fee is one-time and non-refundable, including on breach. We found no payout proof of any kind on the firm's pages: the payouts page sets out payout terms and worked arithmetic only, with no payout records, totals, certificates or payout testimonials.

Its Transparency Index score is 56/100 (Mixed). We do not verify payouts or test accounts; this is what the firm’s own pages show.

Our verdict

Nordic Funder publishes detailed rules for each track: one-time fees from $25.00, no deadline to pass, an 80% split (90% with a paid add-on) and payouts every 14 days after a first withdrawal that has no waiting period once you qualify. Against that, fees are non-refundable, a breach forfeits unwithdrawn profit, and the equities and instant-funding tracks have a 3% static drawdown. When we saw it, the site named two different assessment providers and its Terms page was still awaiting legal sign-off, so key contract terms, including governing law, dispute resolution and account-closure grounds, were not yet on its Terms page.
