We track 5 Crypto Fund Trader products and 2 from Topstep that pass the 30-day source-freshness gate; source checks range from 2026-10-06 to 2026-10-14. These firms sell different instruments — Crypto Fund Trader runs crypto products and Topstep runs futures — so treat the tables below as a fit comparison, not a like-for-like price race. Crypto Fund Trader offers USD one-time; Topstep offers USD monthly at this tier. No currency-and-billing class appears on both sides, so we neither convert currencies nor rank a recurring floor against a fixed total.

Crypto Fund Trader's own products disagree on 12 terms. On evaluation steps it is 1-step on Accelerated (1-Phase) and Break Challenge, versus 2-step on Evaluation (Standard 2-Phase) and Ascend Evaluation, versus instant funding on Instant. Which product you buy decides that rule, not which firm you sign with — a firm-level table cannot show this.

R-multiple is break-even profit divided by that product's own maximum permitted loss — under 1.00 means you can lose more than you need to make to win the fee back. Day count assumes 1% account growth per day, capped by the product's own daily loss limit. Blank cells are figures the firm does not publish.

Each cell shows every value that firm's current products hold. Where a firm disagrees with itself the products are named — those are the rows a firm-level table has to flatten, and the ones that decide whether your strategy is allowed. 12 of 16 rows split this way in this matchup.

CFT homepage prices still differ from Ascend and Break terms
Confirm the exact product, account size, availability and final checkout fee before purchase. Break activation remains a separate charge. This conflict check leaves product capture dates unchanged and does not establish a verified price change.
Topstep now publishes a 55% Combine consistency target
Use 55% for the Combine objective. The separate XFA Consistency payout route remains 40% with three trading days. October 6 is our observation date, not an established effective date; minimum-day descriptions still conflict.
Correction: Topstep payout eligibility is not a three-calendar-day transfer
TFH removed the single calendar-day payout figure, corrected the No Activation Fee path's blanket automation permissions and added the published dollar loss limits per tier. Fee-recovery tables now use those tier limits. These are corrections to our representation, not a proven September change to all Topstep terms. Eligibility still depends on personal circumstances.
Topstep still gives different minimum-day descriptions
Check the applicable Combine consistency requirement and obtain clarification before planning a one-day pass. The six monthly prices were separately verified; this unresolved rule does not establish a price change or a new account restriction.
CFT Ascend and Break fee ladders were resolved from current terms
CFT's Ascend and Break tiers can now appear in fresh price comparisons, but Ascend pays fixed scholarships rather than an ongoing percentage split and Break requires activation after review. Verify the selected tier and final checkout availability, especially where a page block still says sold out.
Correction: CFT reward shares and payout timing depend on the programme
This corrects TFH's blanket 80% and bi-weekly descriptions, not a proven September policy change. The regenerated Instant fee-recovery model uses the 50% starting share. Numeric payout timing is left unverified where the calendar field cannot express the conditions; no actual customer payout was independently verified.
Every figure above is read from these pages. Products older than 30 days are removed from the comparison until they are recaptured, so a missing product means stale data, not a discontinued plan.
These directory fields describe the firms, not a universal product rule. The sourced product tables above decide the exact fee, split, drawdown and trading conditions. Directory context is not independently refreshed by this comparison; verify platform and payment availability for the exact programme and country.
Scored out of 5 by Trustpilot users, not by us. Where Trustpilot has pulled a firm's aggregate rating we say so rather than leaving a blank.
Rating suppressed by Trustpilot
