Shariah-Compliant Prop Firms: Swap-Free Accounts Compared (2026)

Shariah-compliant prop firms are proprietary trading firms whose account structure avoids riba - the interest charged or credited on positions held overnight, known as a swap. In practice that means offering a swap-free or Islamic account. Removing the swap is the baseline requirement, but it does not by itself make an account permissible: that also depends on the instruments traded and the account structure.

Quick answer: Of the 19 firms on this page, 13 have a verifiable swap-free or Islamic account. Three apply it free and automatically to every account, with no request and no fee: Funded Trading Plus, Maven Trading, and AudaCity Capital (Instant Funding programme only). The rest attach conditions, charge for it, or do not offer it at all - the table below shows which is which.

fundedtradingplus
Funded Trading Plus sells three programmes - Instant Funding, 1-Step Express and 2-Step Classic - on MT5 and Match-Trader, with an 80% base split. Two things reshaped the firm in 2026: the entire product line was replaced in February, taking the fee rebate with it, and the company was acquired by Instant Funding in May. It is UK-registered and says plainly that it is not FCA regulated. The 2-Step carries a 3% single-symbol loss limit that terminates the account outright.

E8 Markets
E8 Markets (E8 Funding LLC, Dallas + E8 Markets Ltd, Saint Lucia) runs three single-phase products: E8 Zero, E8 One and E8 Pro. Two things dominate. First, the profit split is a PAID CHOICE at checkout — in E8's own words, 'select 80%, 90%, or 100% at checkout. Higher splits cost more upfront,' and the choice is permanent. Second, and more dangerous: on E8 Zero and E8 Pro your first payout permanently raises the loss level to your initial balance. E8's own worked example shows a $104,000 account requesting a $4,000 payout, dropping to $100,000, and BREACHING immediately. Withdrawing your own profit can destroy the account that produced it. E8 Zero also deactivates permanently after 5 payouts, capping lifetime earnings between $15,000 and $35,000 depending on account size. There is no fee refund of any kind.

PROS:
  • E8 Zero: no daily drawdown at all, and a 3% STATIC max drawdown
  • E8 Pro: 8% STATIC drawdown with no consistency rule
  • Single-phase evaluations across the whole range — no second phase to grind
  • Resets available at a 10% discount (within 7 days of failing)
  • Publishes a pass rate (17.7%) — though the window is now over two years stale
  • Unregulated and says so plainly; no false regulatory claim
  • Choice of drawdown model and split at checkout
CONS:
  • THE PAYOUT TRAP: on E8 Zero and E8 Pro, your first payout permanently raises the loss level to your initial balance — E8's own example shows a $104,000 account requesting $4,000 and BREACHING instantly at $100,000
  • The 80/90/100% profit split is a PAID CHOICE at checkout — higher splits cost more upfront and are locked for the life of the account
  • E8 Zero DEACTIVATES after 5 payouts — capped at $15k ($50K acct) to $35k ($500K acct) lifetime
  • E8 Pro's '80% split' is really 40% of profits — only half your profit is ever made requestable
  • E8 One's max drawdown TRAILS (4-14%) and breaches on intraday equity

The5ers
The5ers (Five Percent Online Ltd, a UK company — but contracted under Israeli law with exclusive jurisdiction in Tel Aviv) runs four CFD programmes: Bootcamp, Hyper Growth, Pro Growth and High Stakes. Its real strengths are genuine: drawdown is STATIC on every CFD programme, the split scales to 100% for free rather than as a paid add-on, and High Stakes offers 1:100 leverage. But two things are widely misreported. First, a 3.5% commission is taken from EVERY cash withdrawal — Rise, crypto and bank transfer alike; the only 0% route is non-convertible Hub Credit. Second, the celebrated ~70% fee refund is High Stakes only, is paid as account equity rather than cash, and is itself subject to that 3.5% on the way out. The rule that decides most accounts is the 0.5% profitable-day definition: on a $100K you need $500 of closed profit in a day to qualify, and an open losing position at midnight wipes the day out entirely.

Funded Next
FundedNext is a UAE proprietary trading firm operating through GrowthNext F.Z.E. (Ajman Free Zone), running the Stellar range: 1-Step, 2-Step, Lite and Instant. Per its own disclaimer it is a simulation-based platform. The base profit split is 80% — 90% is reached through the Scale-Up plan, and 95% is a PAID add-on costing 25–30% on top of the challenge fee. A processing fee of up to 3.5% is deducted from EVERY payout, so a nominal 80% split nets closer to 77%. Since 12 January 2026 the 1-Step split starts at 80% rather than 90% — and resetting an older account moves you onto the newer, worse terms. The 1-Step pays on a 5-business-day cycle; the 2-Step's first cycle is 21 days, then 14 thereafter. Minimum payout from 20 USD, and only 2 minimum trading days on the 1-Step.

The base split is 80% on the 2-Step products and 90% on 1-Step and Instant, with the headline 100% sold as a checkout add-on. The rule that decides most accounts is a 2% cap on loss per trade idea, enforced as an immediate hard breach.

You pick a Flex track with unlimited time and fewer rules, or a cheaper Max track with a 60-day window and a stricter consistency rule, with day-trade buying power from 5,000 to 200,000 plus swing tiers. The profit split is 70 percent, payouts start 14 days after inception with a 300 dollar minimum, and US traders are welcomed. It is simulated and does not offer futures or crypto.

Funding Pips
Funding Pips is a Comoros-registered prop firm (FundingPips Corp) with an administrative base in Dubai. All accounts are simulated. The advertised "up to 100%" profit split is neither a tier you earn nor an add-on you buy - it is a payout-frequency trade-off: weekly pays 60%, bi-weekly 80%, on-demand 90% and monthly 100%. That makes it the only major firm whose top split is free and rule-based rather than bought or scaled into. Maximum drawdown is STATIC on all four standard models (a floor that never moves) - the exceptions are FundingPips Zero, which trails at 5% and is by far the strictest product here, and Prime, which trails at 8%. Six programmes, fees from 29 to 888 USD, max allocation 400,000 USD, and Prime scaling to 2,000,000. Weekend holding has been suspended on funded accounts since January 2026. The challenge fee is refunded at your 4th reward on 1 Step and 2 Step Standard only - reset fees never are.

  • Max allocation now 400,000 USD; Prime scales to 2,000,000

  • Weekend holding SUSPENDED on funded accounts across all four standard models since 29 Jan 2026
  • Profit Concentration Policy (June 2026): one big winning trade in your evaluation permanently attaches a 4-profitable-day gate to EVERY future payout

Maven
Maven Trading is a budget-focused, community-driven UAE prop firm, Maven Edu FZCO, operating since 2022. It offers simulated forex/CFD, crypto and even prediction-market trading on cTrader and Match-Trader. Its defining rule is the M2 Account Saver, an automated circuit-breaker on its OMO and Buy-Now-Pay-Later funded accounts: if floating drawdown hits 2 percent of balance, the first breach force-closes your trades and permanently cuts your split from 80 to 50 percent, and a second breach permanently deactivates the account. The other half of its identity is low cost and variety: fees from about 13 dollars, a genuine 5 dollar Buy-Now-Pay-Later, instant, 1-, 2- and 3-step models, and swap-free accounts. The split is 80 percent on core products, or 70 percent on prediction markets, payouts come every 10 business days, and scaling runs to 1 million. US traders are accepted, though MetaTrader is unavailable to US and Canada. Watch the 10,000 dollar per 30-day withdrawal cap.

Pip Farm
Pip Farm is a solid, actively-operating simulated firm with some genuinely fair touches: an earned split that climbs to 99% with no paid shortcut, a clean cTrader-only setup, low entry fees and a reasonable Trustpilot. The thing to go in clear-eyed about is how you get paid: the accounts are simulated, the up-to-99% split starts at 70%, faster payouts are paid add-ons over a 30-day default, and stacked payout caps meter your withdrawals out slowly. You do not lose the excess, but cannot pull a large balance quickly.

Finotive Funding is a Dubai (DIFC) simulated forex and CFD prop firm operating since 2021 on MT5 and Match-Trader. Entry is cheap from about 25 dollars, sizes run 2,500 to 200,000 dollars, and scaling is advertised to 5.4 million. Its defining feature is a 10 percent strike system: rule breaks cut your next payout to a 10 percent split rather than closing the account, though the discretionary holistic assessment behind reductions is its top complaint. The Pro tier adds a 1 percent monthly salary and a 100 percent split after 30 days. Drawdown is static and payouts are weekly on Fridays.
OVERALL SCORE

PROS:
  • Cheap entry and broad instruments (FX, metals, indices, energy, crypto, stock CFDs)
  • Forgiving static (non-trailing) drawdown

  • Weekly Friday payouts, with fast reports from many traders
  • Instant funding and 1-step options; scaling advertised to 5.4M
CONS:
  • The 10% strike reductions rest on a discretionary holistic assessment (top complaint)
  • Instant funding pays a lower base split
  • A hard breach closes the account with no refund

The ranked list

“Swap-free” is not a standard. Some firms provide it free, some only on request, some for a surcharge, and some replace the interest with a flat daily holding fee. Removing the swap addresses riba, but it does not by itself make an account halal - that also depends on the instruments traded and the account structure. Confirm with a qualified scholar, and check current terms with the firm before buying.

The firms listed below carry a JoinProp score out of 10, graded by our editorial team on payout reliability, fees, drawdown rules, profit split, evaluation terms, trading rules, customer support, scaling and track record. That score rates the firm overall - it is not a judgement on Shariah compliance, which is set out firm by firm in the table above. No firm can buy its grade. See our prop firm ranking methodology for what each category measures, where the data comes from, and how to dispute a rating.

What “swap-free” actually means

A swap, or rollover, is the interest debited or credited for holding a leveraged position overnight. Because that interest is riba, a genuine swap-free account removes it. Three things are worth checking before committing:

  • Free or fee-based. Some firms replace the swap with a flat admin or holding fee. That may be acceptable as a service charge rather than interest, but it is not the same as no cost. Confirm the mechanism.
  • Time limits. Some firms only keep positions swap-free for a set number of days. Pip Farm caps it at three days, then charges daily including weekends.
  • Instrument scope. Several firms apply swap-free to forex and metals only, leaving indices, crypto and energies swap-bearing.
  • Swap-free is not automatically halal. Removing the swap addresses riba, but compliance also depends on the instruments traded and the account structure. Confirm with a qualified scholar.

How we verify this list

Each firm is checked against its own help centre, FAQ or terms pages rather than marketing copy. Where a firm advertises an “Islamic account” without describing a mechanism, we record it as claimed but unverified. Where a firm’s own documentation states swaps are charged, we record that plainly even if the firm markets itself to Muslim traders elsewhere.

Firms are not removed from this page for failing to offer swap-free accounts, because traders search for them in this context. Their status is shown in the table instead. Last verified August 2026.

Frequently asked questions

Which firms here are genuinely swap-free at no cost?

Funded Trading Plus and Maven Trading apply it automatically to every account, with no request and no fee. AudaCity Capital does the same on its Instant Funding programme only. City Traders Imperium and Rebels Funding are also free but conditional - CTI requires a request before the account is traded, and Rebels covers 28 forex pairs and metals only.

Do any firms charge extra for a swap-free account?

Yes. FundedNext adds 10% to the challenge price. Funding Pips doubles the commission to $10 per lot and covers forex and metals only. Pip Farm charges 10% of the challenge fee and caps swap-free holding at three days, after which fixed daily fees apply including weekends. BrightFunded and Finotive Funding both charge without publishing a price.

Are all the firms on this page swap-free?

No. Funding Traders and Darwinex Zero state in their own help centres that swaps apply. They remain listed because traders search for them in this context, with their status shown in the table above.

Is a swap-free account automatically Sharia-compliant?

No. Swap-free removes the interest component, but full compliance also depends on the instruments traded and the account structure. Several firms replace interest with a flat administrative fee, which some scholars accept and others do not. Confirm with a qualified scholar.

Can I trade futures with a swap-free prop firm?

Futures do not incur overnight swaps, so futures programmes are swap-free by design rather than by policy. Within this list, Ment Funding’s futures programme works this way. Whether a specific contract is permissible is a separate scholarly question.

Is there a time limit on how long positions stay swap-free?

It varies. Funded Trading Plus states no limit and explicitly denies any storage fee. Pip Farm caps it at three days. Axi’s broker-level Islamic account caps at five days, then charges a daily holding fee. Always confirm before holding long-term positions.
