A complete breakdown of every cost associated with trading at The Prop Pit.

Trading Info Article 1 of 2 Updated Apr 2026

Overview

The Prop Pit keeps its fee structure simple and transparent. Evaluations are completely free. You only pay when you choose to activate a funded account after passing. There are no platform fees, no monthly subscriptions, no withdrawal fees, and no inactivity fees.

Activation Fees

After passing your evaluation, you pay a one-time activation fee to activate your funded account. This fee includes your real-time market data feed ($19 value) — there is no separate data charge.

Account SizeActivation Fee
$10K Micro$69
$25K Starter$110
$50K Popular$160
$100K Pro$260

These are one-time fees. Once your account is activated, there are no recurring charges.

Note

The activation fee is the same regardless of asset class. A $50K Futures account and a $50K Crypto account both cost $160 to activate.
