MyFundedFutures now has two different ways to get into a $25K sim-funded account: the $25K Flex at $84 and the $25K Rapid at $87. Three dollars apart. Same profit target, same drawdown, same 50% consistency on the eval. If you only glanced at the checkout page you'd pick whichever loaded first.
Don't do that. These two accounts behave completely differently once you're funded, and the one that's right for you depends on how you actually trade — not which is cheaper.
As of April 17, 2026, here's what you're actually buying.
The eval is basically identical
Both accounts have:
- $1,500 profit target
- $1,000 trailing drawdown (EOD, both)
- 3 minis / 30 micros max
- 50% consistency rule
- 2-minute minimum trading days
- $0 activation fee
- No daily loss limit
So the eval decision is a coin flip. The difference is what happens after you pass.
Where Flex and Rapid diverge
The funded stage is where the $3 price difference stops being the headline and the rule set takes over.
| $25K Flex | $25K Rapid | |
|---|---|---|
| Eval cost | $84 | $87 |
| Profit split | 80/20 (or 90/10 for +$17) | 90/10 |
| Funded drawdown | EOD trailing, then $100 static after first payout | Intraday trailing |
| Funded contracts | 1–3 minis (scales with profit) | Full 3 minis from day 1 |
| First payout | After 5 winning days at $100+/day | 24h after buffer ($1,100) cleared |
| Payout cadence | Every 5 winning days | Daily |
| Min payout | $250 | $500 |
| Per-cycle cap | $3,000 | None published |
| Consistency (funded) | None | None |
| T1 news trading | Allowed on funded | Restricted |
A few of those rows matter more than the others.
Flex's catch: the $100 static drawdown
Flex is the cheapest MFF entry, but the funded-phase drawdown is unusually tight. You get EOD trailing during the eval, which is friendly. Once you pass and take your first payout, the max loss limit resets to $100 static below your starting balance. On a $25K account that is a very short leash — one bad trade and you're out.
The scaling also means you don't trade full size immediately. You start at 1 mini on a funded Flex account and earn your way up to 3 as profit accumulates. If you're a size-dependent trader, this is a meaningful constraint the eval doesn't prepare you for.
The trade-off: Flex is the only MFF plan where T1 news trading is allowed on funded accounts. If your edge lives around scheduled economic releases, that alone can justify the plan.
Rapid's catch: intraday trailing on funded
Rapid is MFF's flagship plan for good reason — 90/10 split, daily payouts, no consistency rule, and you trade full contracts from day one.
The gotcha is the drawdown switches from EOD (eval) to intraday trailing (funded). Most traders don't read that closely. Your high-water mark moves in real time during the session. A trade that goes nicely in your favor, then pulls back, can breach your drawdown on the pullback even if you close the day green. This catches a lot of people, and "passed eval, died on day 2 of funded" is a frequent Rapid story.
The $1,100 buffer requirement before your first payout is the other gate. You need to hit $26,100 in account equity, then you're cleared for 24-hour payouts at a $500 minimum. In practice this is a few good days of work — not a blocker.
Which one is actually right for you
Pick $25K Flex if:
- You trade news or around scheduled events (T1 news access is the unique feature)
- You'd rather grind out 5-winning-day cycles than chase daily payouts
- You can live with a $100 static drawdown after your first payout
- Budget is literally the only thing that matters — $84 is the cheapest MFF door, period
Pick $25K Rapid if:
- You want full contract size from day 1
- Daily payouts matter to you (cashflow, psychology, compounding, whatever)
- You're comfortable managing an intraday trailing drawdown in funded
- The 90/10 split vs Flex's 80/20 is worth the extra $3
For most traders starting small at MFF, Rapid is the better call. The daily payouts + 90/10 split + no-scaling contract rule is a stronger structure than Flex's cycle-based payouts and scaling. Flex only beats it if you specifically need news access or you're truly maxing out on budget.
If you're taking Rapid: run the first two weeks of funded on reduced size until you get a feel for how intraday trailing behaves in live conditions. It's not the same animal as EOD.
Promo context
MFF is currently running SAVE40 (40% off) and TRUSTED (55% off). Both stack on both accounts. At 55% off, the $25K Flex is about $38 and the $25K Rapid is about $39. Verify the code works at checkout — MFF rotates them without notice.
Bottom line
"$25K Flex vs $25K Rapid" is not a price question. The eval is the same. The $3 difference buys you a different product on the funded side: Flex is a cycle-paid account with a tight post-payout drawdown and news access; Rapid is a daily-paid account with intraday drawdown and full contracts up front. Pick based on how you'll actually trade, not which line is shorter.
