FundedNext Review 2026: 95% Splits and Weekend Holding — With Caveats

FundedNext is the loudest FTMO alternative. We look at what they actually deliver on the Stellar and Evaluation programs.

PFS Editors · 2026-01-10 · 7 min read

FundedNext launched in 2022 out of Dubai and now runs three main programs: the two-step Evaluation, the one-step Stellar Lite, and the Stellar 2-step. All three top out at a 95% profit split after the first payout, which is genuinely the highest in the mainstream market.

The Stellar 2-step is the flagship: 8% Phase 1 target, 5% Phase 2 target, 10% max drawdown, 5% daily, no minimum trading days, and weekend holding permitted. Fees start at $59 for a $6,000 account and $259 for $100,000. Coupon codes are usually stackable for a further 10–20% off.

The 'catch' is the consistency rule that applies at the payout stage on some programs: your highest-profit day cannot exceed 40% of your total profit for the payout period. Traders who blow out one big day and coast the rest of the month get their payouts reduced pro-rata, not voided.

Payouts are bi-weekly by default on Evaluation, or every 5 days after your first payout on Stellar. Median processing time in our tracker is 24 hours. Crypto rails are supported and are the fastest.

Verdict: the strongest swing-friendly firm in 2026, and the correct choice if you need weekend holding, high splits, or plan to stack coupons. Read the payout consistency rule before you plan a big trade.
