Overview
The5ers is operated by Five Percent Online Ltd, a company registered in London with a second registration in Raanana, Israel, and has offered funded-trader programs since 2016. Its CFD lineup consists of the 2-step High Stakes challenge (New and Classic versions), the 1-step Hyper Growth and Pro Growth programs, and the 3-step Bootcamp, where most of the fee is paid only after passing. Funded accounts scale on each profit milestone, with profit shares that start between 50% and 80% depending on the program and can reach 100%. Payouts are processed every 14 days through Rise, crypto, bank transfer or Hub Credits, and a 3.5% commission applies to cash withdrawal methods.

Target ÷ loss is the total profit target divided by the max loss limit. Lower means less profit is needed for each unit of risk. Prices are list prices; "Apply discount" takes off the firm's current public code, which may not cover every program. Per $100K converts EUR and GBP at a fixed rate for ranking only. Buy links go to the firm's site; some are affiliate links (PropFirmly may earn a commission).

Payouts: every 14 days; first payout 14 days after the funded account is issued.
The New version has a 10% Step 1 target and a lower fee than the Classic version; risk limits are the same.
Daily loss is measured from the higher of the day's starting balance or starting equity at MT5 server midnight: 5% on 2.5K to 25K accounts and 4% on 50K and 100K accounts. Maximum loss is 10% (8% on 50K and 100K) of the initial balance.
Passing Step 1 pays a small reward ($2 on 2.5K up to $40 on 100K) and 10% of the fee as Hub Credits; passing Step 2 adds 20% as Hub Credits. 70% of the fee paid with external funds is returned with the first payout.
Funded 50K accounts have a $3,000 payout cap and $300 minimum; 100K accounts have a $4,000 cap and $500 minimum.
Funded accounts grow on each 10% target (with 3 profitable days) up to $500,000; the split rises from 80% to 85%, 90% and then 100% plus a fixed monthly payout at the top levels.
Up to 3 accounts each of 2.5K, 5K and 10K, one 25K and one 50K or 100K can be active at once.

The Classic version has an 8% Step 1 target and a higher fee than the New version; all other rules match.
Daily loss and maximum loss work as in the New version (5%/10% up to 25K, 4%/8% on 50K and 100K).
Classic account limits are lower: one 2.5K, one 5K, one 10K or 25K, and one 50K or 100K account at a time.
The5ers' payout FAQ still uses a $545 price for the 100K account in its refund example, which does not match the $455 shown in the current pricing table.

Listed as the 'Growth' option on The5ers' 1-step page.
There is no account-ending daily limit: a 3% daily pause disables trading for the rest of the day only. The 6% stop-out level is fixed below the initial account size.
No minimum trades or days; the level completes as soon as the 10% target is reached.
Funded (Pro) levels keep the same 10% target, 6% stop-out and 3% daily pause, and The5ers states the account doubles on each target, up to $4,000,000. Bonuses are credited on each completed level.
Combined evaluation capital is capped at $40,000 per trader.
The scaling table starts at a 75% split, moving to 80% and then 80% to 100% at the highest balances.

Daily loss is 3% of the higher of the day's starting equity or balance at 00:00 MT5 server time, and breaching it ends the account. The 6% stop-out is fixed below the initial account size.
The 10% target, 6% maximum loss and 3% daily loss stay the same on funded levels; the account scales on each 10% target.
Leverage is 1:30.
The 50K size is offered only in Pro Growth, not in Hyper Growth.

Size is the funded account balance. The three evaluation steps run on smaller balances: $5K, $10K and $15K for the 20K track; $25K, $50K and $75K for the 100K track; $100K, $150K and $200K for the 250K track.
The entry fee is paid up front and the remaining fee (activation fee here) only after passing all three steps; totals are $72, $300 and $575.
There is no daily limit during the evaluation. Funded accounts have a 4% maximum loss, a 5% target per scale-up and a 3% daily pause that stops trading for the rest of the day.
Profit split starts at 50% and rises to 100% as the funded account scales on each 5% target.
Up to 4 active Bootcamp accounts (one 250K, one 100K and two 20K), each traded with a different strategy.
Leverage 1:30 on forex, 1:25 on metals and indices, with lower leverage on commodities and crypto. The fee is non-refundable.
