Built on Trust, Refined by Five Years of Data: Funded Trading Plus Unveils Major Product Upgrades

LONDON, UK – Funded Trading Plus (FT+), a global leader in the prop trading space, today announced the launch of FT+ 2.0. This comprehensive upgrade to the platform’s core funding programs is the culmination of five years of operational data, $19.5 million in verified payouts, and direct feedback from a community of over 60,000 traders.

Since its inception in 2021, Funded Trading Plus has been anchored by a single principle: Trust. By positioning as a transparent alternative in a complex Prop industry. FT+ 2.0 represents an evolution of that mission, upgrading the trader experience to be faster, clearer, and more accessible.

An Upgrade Driven by Five Years of Learning

“No one likes change for the sake of change, but everyone loves an upgrade,” said Simon Massey, CEO of Funded Trading Plus. “We didn’t just guess what traders wanted. We spent months analyzing five years of internal data and payout history to see exactly where our traders succeed. FT+ 2.0 is the ‘iPhone upgrade’ of prop trading, it’s the same reliable foundation, but with the ‘bugs’ of complexity removed and the features traders love most dialed up to ten.”

The Three Upgraded Paths to Funding

The FT+ 2.0 lineup has been streamlined into three distinct, high-performance pathways. Each program retains the “trader-first” rules that have become FT+ hallmarks: News trading allowed, weekend holding permitted, and now no hidden swap fees.

• 1-Step Express: A community favorite since 2021, now made more accessible. This single-step challenge has been expanded to include account sizes ranging from $10,000 to $200,000, with entry points starting as low as $99. It remains the premier choice for traders seeking a direct, uncomplicated path to a funded account.
• 2-Step Classic: Based on extensive feedback from traders who value stability, the Classic program has been refined to offer consistent targets and a static drawdown model. For the first time in company history, a $10,000 2-Step Challenge is available for just $89, providing an institutional-grade environment at a retail-friendly price point.
• Instant Funding: Recently named “Best Instant Funding 2025,” this program has been further enhanced by removing all swap fees. Designed for those with a proven edge, it allows traders to bypass challenges entirely, offering news trading, weekly withdrawals and scaling up to $2.5 million.

The Gold Standard of Transparency

The launch of FT+ 2.0 also introduces a redesigned digital experience. The new interface prioritizes speed and transparency, featuring a dedicated “About Us” section that tracks the company’s journey from its 2013 roots to its current status as a global powerhouse serving 180 countries.

“With over $19.5 million paid out, we have the data to know what a successful trader looks like,” Massey added. “Our role is to stay out of their way. By offering the most relaxed rules in the industry, like no swap fees and flexible holding options, we ensure that our success is directly tied to the success of our community.”

The new Funded Trading Plus experience is now live. For more information on the upgraded challenges and the FT+ 2.0 ecosystem, visit www.fundedtradingplus.com
