Apex Trader Funding Revises Evaluation Pricing Upward
Apex Trader Funding, one of the premier futures prop firms on the market, announced significant price increases on its evaluation accounts effective September 24, 2026. This increase impacts six evaluation accounts across its lineup, with price jumps reaching up to 98% on select Intraday accounts. For traders planning to take an Apex challenge, incorporating these new prices into your budget is essential.
Detailed Breakdown of Price Changes
End-of-Day (EOD) Accounts
EOD evaluation accounts see moderate to substantial increases depending on account size:
- 25K: $450 → $490 (+8.9%)
- 50K: $550 → $590 (+7.3%)
- 100K: $990 → $1,190 (+20.2%)
- 150K: $1,890 → $2,190 (+15.9%)
Intraday Accounts
The most dramatic increases affect Intraday accounts, where prices have nearly doubled:
- 100K: $399 → $790 (+97.7%)
- 150K: $599 → $1,190 (+98.7%)
The 25K and 50K Intraday accounts remain unchanged. The SAVENOW promo code offering up to 90% off has been extended until October 13, 2026 to cushion the impact of these price increases.
What This Means for Traders
For traders targeting 100K and 150K Intraday accounts, entry costs have doubled. A 150K Intraday account previously priced at $599 now costs $1,190. This price shift may push traders toward EOD accounts with milder increases or to alternative futures prop firms.
EOD 100K and 150K accounts also experience notable price hikes of 20% and 16%. The 25K and 50K EOD models remain relatively affordable with increases under 10%.

Should You Still Choose Apex Trader Funding?
Despite these increases, Apex remains a top-tier reference in futures trading. Key highlights include 100% profit split on the first $25,000, followed by 90%, along with semi-monthly payouts. Trailing threshold rules remain competitive. For an in-depth review, read our complete Apex Trader Funding review.
However, these hikes make Apex one of the higher-priced options for large Intraday accounts. Compare alternatives before purchasing. Visit Fundedtrader.fr to explore our challenge validation and account management services.
Our Recommendation
If you aim for an Intraday account, take advantage of the extended SAVENOW promotion before October 13 to get 90% off catalog pricing (bringing the 100K Intraday down to ~$79). For EOD accounts, smaller account sizes offer better relative value.
Prepare thoroughly before buying. Thorough preparation via our validation methods ensures you succeed on your first attempt.
