    What separates the best prop firms from the rest

    A high headline profit split means little if the firm’s drawdown rules are punitive or its payouts are slow and unreliable. The firms at the top of this list combine four things: a low real all-in cost (evaluation fee plus any activation fee, after the FundedEnigma discount), a fair drawdown model, a profit split of 80% or higher, and a documented, on-time payout record.

    The Enigma Score weighs those factors together so a firm cannot buy its way up the list with one flashy number. Use the ranked table below to see each firm’s score, then open a full review to read the specific rules before you pay for a challenge.

    Best for beginners vs. experienced traders

    If you are new, prioritise a forgiving drawdown model (static or end-of-day rather than intraday trailing) and a low entry cost so a failed first attempt is cheap — start with the cheapest-challenges and forex lists linked below.

    If you are experienced and consistent, optimise for the highest profit split and fastest, most reliable payouts instead; the entry fee matters less when you expect to pass and withdraw. The highest-profit-split list is the better starting point for you.
