AudaCity Capital Prop Firm Review
Published: · Last updated:
- Simulated prop firm trading since 2012, one of the longest records in the category. Three programmes on MT5 and DXTrade, $5,000 to $200,000. Contracting entity AudaCity Global LTD, licensed in the Union of Comoros.
- The loosest rules on this site: the two-step allows 7.5% daily loss and 15% maximum in phase 1, static and measured on initial balance. No time limit on any evaluation.
- News trading, weekend holding, expert advisors and copy trading all permitted on every programme.
- Avoid FTP: instant funding costs $1,299 at $50K against $329 for the two-step, pays a lower split, and still imposes a 10% profit target.
- Watch: the site says no consistency rule while the terms still carry an active consistency clause; the advertised 90% split is shown as 85% or 75% in the firm own calculator; and the Trustpilot rating is unavailable on Trustpilot’s official website.

TL;DR: AudaCity Capital in 30 seconds
- What it is: one of the older firms in this category, trading since 2012. Three programmes on MetaTrader 5 and DXTrade, sizes $5,000 to $200,000. The contracting entity is AudaCity Global LTD, licensed in the Union of Comoros, with a London office and a Cyprus payment partner.
- The two-step has the loosest rules on this site: phase one allows a 7.5% daily loss and a 15% maximum loss against a 10% target. Very few firms give a trader that much room.
- Instant funding is the worst value here. FTP costs $1,299 at $50,000 against $329 for the same balance on the two-step, pays a lower split, and still makes you hit a 10% profit target.
- Two claims do not match the firm’s own pages. The site advertises no consistency rule, yet the terms still carry an active consistency clause that can fail a challenge. And the headline promises up to 90%, while the firm’s own scaling calculator shows the funded split as 85% or 75%.
- Best for: traders who want maximum drawdown room at the lowest entry cost, on the Ability Challenge. Skip FTP unless instant access is worth roughly four times the price and ten points of profit split.
Pricing snapshot
AudaCity sells three routes and prices them in a way that rewards patience heavily. The Ability Challenge, the two-step, is cheapest at every size: $49 at $5,000 and $1,049 at $200,000, the only programme that reaches that high. Ability One, the one-step, costs roughly 30% more and stops at $100,000. FTP, the instant-funding product, sits in a different bracket entirely and stops at $50,000.
The comparison at $50,000 is the one to hold on to: $329 on the two-step, $399 on the one-step, and $1,299 on FTP. You are paying close to a thousand dollars extra to skip an evaluation that costs $329, and accepting a lower profit split to do it.
A 14% anniversary discount was live across all programmes on 16 September 2026. The table below gives list prices before that discount. Fees are denominated in GBP and EUR under the terms, with other currencies converted at payment.

Company and regulation
AudaCity is unusual on this site in that it does hold a licence, and unusual again in which one.
The services are provided by AudaCity Global LTD, registration number 15850, operating under an International Brokerage and Clearing House Licence (L15850/WL) issued by the Union of Comoros, with a registered office at Hamchako, Mutsamudu, Anjouan. The firm also runs a UK office at 25 Cabot Square, Level 11, London E14 4QZ, and maintains a partnership with Propmetry Limited (company number HE469039) in Limassol, Cyprus, described in the terms as an additional payment partner.
Read the licence for what it is. An Anjouan brokerage licence is a genuine registration and puts AudaCity a step ahead of the many firms in this category holding nothing at all. It is also a light-touch offshore regime, not a major-market financial regulator, and it does not carry the capital requirements, client-money segregation or compensation scheme a trader might associate with the word licensed. The London address is an office, not the contracting entity.
Three clauses in the terms are worth knowing before you buy:
- Fees are not refundable once an account is purchased or if the evaluation is not completed, and the terms state you agree not to raise a dispute with your bank or payment provider.
- The firm reserves the absolute right to withdraw any trader from the programs, at any time and without giving any explanation. That is the broadest discretion clause we have quoted on this site.
- Profits made outside the risk parameters, or through arbitrage of any kind including latency, one-leg, two-leg and pairs, carry no entitlement to a payout.
The services are described in the terms as simulated trading with fictitious funds. Note that the FTP product is separately described on the pricing page as a live account, so confirm with support which applies to the programme you buy.

The three programmes
| Programme | Phases | Profit target | Daily loss | Maximum loss | Min trading days | Split | Sizes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ability Challenge, phase 1 | 2 | 10% | 7.5% | 15% | 4 | Advertised up to 90% | $5K to $200K |
| Ability Challenge, phase 2 | 5% | 5% | 10% | 4 | |||
| Ability One | 1 | 10% | 3% | 6% | 3 | Advertised up to 90% | $5K to $100K |
| FTP, instant funding | 0 | 10% | 5% | 10% | 5 | Up to 80% | $5K to $50K |
Drawdowns are described as static and measured against the initial balance, which is the trader-friendly construction: profit does not drag the floor up behind you. Once funded, the Ability Challenge runs at 5% daily and 10% maximum, and Ability One at 3% and 6%.
News trading, weekend holding, expert advisors and copy trading are permitted on all three programmes, with expert advisors and copy trading specified for MetaTrader 5. There is no time limit on any evaluation.
Why FTP is hard to justify
Instant funding usually buys you two things: no evaluation, and immediate access. Here it buys one. FTP still requires a 10% profit target and five minimum trading days before you are paid, which is the same target as the two-step evaluation. What you avoid is the second phase. For that you pay $1,299 instead of $329 at $50,000, accept 80% instead of the advertised 90%, and lose access to the $100,000 and $200,000 sizes entirely. Unless the evaluation itself is the obstacle, the two-step is the better instrument.
Two claims that do not match the firm’s own pages
Both of these are checkable on AudaCity’s public site today, and both matter to a buying decision.
The consistency rule
The homepage carries the headline “No Consistency Rule anymore”, and every pricing card marks consistency as None or Not anymore, flagged as an upgrade.
The terms and conditions on the same site still contain an active Consistency Clause. It states that traders must demonstrate consistency in trade length and lot size in order to pass the minimum trading days, and gives a worked example: one position at 15 lots on one day followed by six positions at 0.1 lots on six other days results in failing the Ability Challenge. It adds that the risk team reserves the right to assess consistency based on the trader’s style, including lot size and trade duration.
Those two statements cannot both be operative. The marketing may be ahead of the paperwork, or the clause may still be enforced. Either way, do not size your trades on the assumption that consistency is unpoliced here, and ask support in writing which applies before you buy.
The profit split
The site states up to 90% in its headline and on the Ability Challenge and Ability One pricing cards, and up to 80% on FTP.
AudaCity’s own scaling calculator, on its funded trader program page, shows something different. For both the Ability Challenge and Ability One, the funded stage is listed as 85% where profit exceeds 10%, and 75% where it does not. We checked both programmes in the calculator and got the same figures.
So the site publishes three different numbers: 90% in marketing, 85% or 75% in its own calculator, and 80% on FTP. The honest summary is that 85% is the highest split we can evidence from AudaCity’s own tools, and 75% is what a trader making under 10% should expect. Treat 90% as a headline until support confirms it in writing.
Scaling
The scaling plan is genuinely aggressive and simple: hit your targets and the account doubles. The published ladder runs $5,000, $10,000, $20,000, $40,000, $80,000, $160,000, $320,000, $640,000, $1.28M and $2.56M across ten steps.
The ceiling is described inconsistently across the site, appearing as $2M in the scaling headline, $2 million in the benefits list, accounts up to $240K in the Ability Challenge summary and up to $768K with FTP on the homepage. The ladder itself tops out at $2.56M. Take the ladder as the mechanism and the various ceilings as marketing.
Payouts and payout data
Payouts are advertised as same day upon approval on the funded stage of all three programmes, and the challenge fee is described as refundable on the evaluation routes.
On evidence, AudaCity sits in the middle of the range. It publishes headline totals of more than $250 million paid out, 500,000 traders and 140 countries since 2012, and runs a rolling feed of recent payouts naming individual traders, their country and the amount. What it does not publish is a verifiable payout log with per-payout proof, a monthly volume chart, or any third-party audit. The named feed is better than nothing and weaker than the best disclosure in this category.
What Trustpilot shows
As of 16 September 2026, the Trustpilot profile for audacitycapital.co.uk shows the rating as unavailable on the Trustpilot official website, so no score is displayed, and Trustpilot adds a line stating it has removed a number of fake reviews for this company. The 1,059 remaining reviews run 74% five-star and 12% one-star, which is a more favourable distribution than several competitors we have checked.
We report what the platform displays rather than drawing a conclusion from it. The practical consequence is that any AudaCity star rating quoted elsewhere is not one Trustpilot is currently publishing, so read the reviews themselves.
Rules and fees at a glance
- No time limit on any evaluation. Trading period is unlimited on all three programmes.
- Minimum trading days: 4 per phase on the Ability Challenge, 3 on Ability One, 5 on FTP. None once funded on Ability One.
- Drawdowns are static and measured against the initial balance, so profit does not pull the floor up behind you.
- News trading, weekend holding, expert advisors and copy trading are allowed on every programme. Expert advisors and copy trading are specified for MetaTrader 5.
- Platforms: MetaTrader 5 and DXTrade.
- Instruments: forex, metals, indices, energies and crypto.
- Fees are non-refundable once an account is purchased or the evaluation is not completed, and the terms state you agree not to raise a payment dispute. The challenge fee is separately advertised as refunded on passing.
- No payout entitlement for profits made outside the risk parameters, or through arbitrage of any kind including latency, one-leg, two-leg and pairs, or through trading the firm classes as illegal, malicious, manipulative or toxic.
- The firm reserves the absolute right to withdraw any trader from the programs at any time without explanation.
- Free routes in: a monthly trading competition offers a funded account challenge to top finishers, and the firm runs a free trader education programme.
Verdict
AudaCity has the longest track record on this page, a real if lightweight licence, and the most permissive drawdown rules we have measured. A 7.5% daily loss and a 15% maximum on phase one of a $49 evaluation is a lot of room for very little money, the drawdown is static rather than trailing, and news, weekends, expert advisors and copy trading are all allowed. For a trader whose problem is being stopped out by tight limits rather than by strategy, this is a rational place to start, and the Ability Challenge is the instrument.
Three things hold it back. FTP is poor value, charging roughly four times the two-step price for a product that still imposes a 10% target and pays a lower split. The consistency claim and the terms contradict each other, which is the sort of gap that only matters on the day it is enforced against you. And the split is advertised at a number the firm’s own calculator does not show, with 85% the best we can evidence and 75% the realistic figure below a 10% return.
None of that makes AudaCity a bad firm, and its Trustpilot review distribution is healthier than several competitors we have checked. It makes it a firm where the marketing runs ahead of the documentation. Buy the Ability Challenge at the size you actually want, get the consistency position and the split confirmed in writing before you trade, and treat the headline numbers as claims rather than terms.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is AudaCity Capital legit and regulated?
It has been operating since 2012, which makes it one of the longer-established firms in this category. Services are provided by AudaCity Global LTD, registration number 15850, under an International Brokerage and Clearing House Licence (L15850/WL) issued by the Union of Comoros, registered in Anjouan. It also runs a London office at 25 Cabot Square and partners with Propmetry Limited in Limassol, Cyprus as a payment partner. That licence is real, which puts it ahead of firms holding none, but it is a light-touch offshore regime rather than a major-market regulator, with none of the capital or client-money protections that phrase usually implies.
How much does an AudaCity account cost?
List prices run from $49 for a $5,000 Ability Challenge to $1,049 for a $200,000 one. Ability One runs $69 to $699 across $5,000 to $100,000. FTP, the instant funding route, runs $119 to $1,299 across $5,000 to $50,000. A 14% anniversary discount was live on 16 September 2026. Fees are denominated in GBP and EUR, with other currencies converted at payment.
Which programme is the best value?
The Ability Challenge, comfortably. It is the cheapest at every size, the only one that reaches $200,000, and it carries the loosest rules: 7.5% daily and 15% maximum loss in phase one. Ability One costs about 30% more for a single phase but tightens to 3% daily and 6% maximum. FTP costs roughly four times the two-step at $50,000, pays a lower split, and still requires a 10% profit target, so it only makes sense if avoiding the evaluation itself is worth that premium.
Does AudaCity have a consistency rule?
The marketing says no, and every pricing card marks it as removed. The terms and conditions on the same site still contain an active consistency clause requiring consistency in trade length and lot size to pass the minimum trading days, with a worked example showing that one 15-lot position followed by six 0.1-lot positions results in failing the Ability Challenge. The clause also gives the risk team discretion to assess consistency by trading style. Those statements conflict, so get the current position confirmed in writing before you size your trades.
What profit split does AudaCity actually pay?
The site advertises up to 90% on the Ability Challenge and Ability One, and up to 80% on FTP. AudaCity’s own scaling calculator, however, shows the funded stage paying 85% where profit exceeds 10% and 75% where it does not, and that is the same for both evaluation programmes. The highest split we can evidence from the firm’s own tools is 85%. Treat 90% as a marketing figure until support confirms otherwise.
Can I trade the news, hold over the weekend, or use an EA?
Yes to all three, on every programme. News trading, weekend holding, expert advisors and copy trading are all permitted, with expert advisors and copy trading specified for MetaTrader 5. There is also no time limit on any evaluation. That combination is more permissive than most firms in this price range.
How does scaling work and what is the ceiling?
Your account doubles each time you meet the targets. The published ladder runs $5,000, $10,000, $20,000, $40,000, $80,000, $160,000, $320,000, $640,000, $1.28M and $2.56M. The ceiling is described inconsistently across the site as $2M, $240K and $768K in different places, so treat the ladder as the mechanism and the various ceilings as marketing.
Does AudaCity publish proof of payouts?
Partly. It publishes headline totals of more than $250 million paid out, 500,000 traders and 140 countries since 2012, and runs a feed of recent payouts naming individual traders with their country and amount. It does not publish a per-payout proof log, a monthly volume chart or any third-party audit, so the evidence sits between the firms that publish nothing and the ones that publish verifiable records.
Why is there no Trustpilot score for AudaCity Capital?
As of 16 September 2026 the Trustpilot profile for audacitycapital.co.uk shows the rating as unavailable on the Trustpilot official website, so no score is displayed, and Trustpilot states it has removed a number of fake reviews for the company. The 1,059 remaining reviews run 74% five-star and 12% one-star. Trustpilot does not publish the specific reason on the company page, so this is not evidence about trading or payout conduct, but any AudaCity star rating quoted elsewhere is not one Trustpilot is currently publishing.
Can I get funded for free?
There are two free routes. AudaCity runs a monthly trading competition where top finishers win a funded account challenge, with a registration deadline each month, and it offers a free trader education programme covering market structure and risk discipline. Neither replaces buying an account, but both are genuine and cost nothing.
