We Paid Traders $2,061,220.67 in August. Here Are the Numbers.

One note before the numbers. We published a payout figure in July as well, and the two are not comparable. That one covered a rolling 30 days ending July 29 and came out of a video update. This one is the August calendar month, counted after the profit split. Different windows, different basis. Please do not read a trend into the gap between them.

Most prop firms talk about payouts. Very few publish them.

So here is August 2026 at Funded Futures Family, in full. What went out, who it went to, where they traded from, and the parts of the picture that flatter us less. We are going to do this every month, which means you get to hold this page against next month’s and see whether the story holds up.

The headline number

Funded Futures Family paid traders $2,061,220.67 in August 2026. That figure is what landed in traders’ accounts after the profit split, not gross trading profit. It averages out to roughly $66,500 paid out every day of the month, weekends included.

That sits on top of more than $25 million paid to traders since we started, across 5,000+ funded traders, in a little over two years of operating.

Where the money actually went

The top three earners took home 3.1% of everything we paid out in August. The other 96.9% went to everybody else.

That number matters more than the headline. The most common accusation aimed at prop firms is that a handful of showcase traders get paid so the firm has screenshots to post, while everyone else gets stalled. If that were how this worked, the concentration at the top would be enormous. It is not. August was a long tail of ordinary withdrawals by ordinary traders, plus a small number of big ones.

August’s top three payouts

The all-time top three

These are lifetime totals with FFF, not single withdrawals. Each of these traders got there by getting paid over and over.

Three traders, $357,873.30 between them, accumulated a few thousand dollars at a time. Totals like that only build at a firm you can keep withdrawing from.

28 traders moved to live accounts in August

This is the number we care about most internally, and it is the one almost nobody outside the firm asks about.

A simulated funded account is where you prove the strategy. A live account is where your orders reach the actual market. Moving a trader across that line is the whole point of the exercise, and it is not a marketing step. It happens when the trading record says the trader is ready.

In August, 28 traders made that move. To be clear about what the number counts: these were not 28 people who passed an evaluation. They were already funded and already trading, and their record earned them the promotion.

If you are comparing firms, ask each one how many traders they moved to live last month. Most of them do not publish it.

Where our traders come from

The three countries that bought the most evaluations in August:

1. United States
2. India
3. Canada

The US lead is not a surprise for a US futures firm. India in second place is. That has been building for months, and it is now a large enough share that it changes what we build: payout rails and KYC documentation for non-US passports both moved up the queue because of it.

Return on what traders spent

This is the table people actually want, and it is the one we have to be careful with.

Below are the five traders with the highest return on their evaluation spend in August, out of everyone who spent at least $500 with us during the month. We are publishing the multiple and the country. We are not publishing their handles, what they spent, or what they were paid, because that is their business and not a recruitment poster.

The trader at the top turned their August evaluation spend into 19.3 times that amount in payouts. Several of them bought multiple accounts, blew some of them, and still came out this far ahead, which is the honest shape of how this works. You do not need every account to survive. You need the ones that do to run far enough.

Now the part that flatters us less

If you take one thing from this page, take this one.

These outcomes are not typical, and we are not going to pretend they are. The five traders in that table are the top five out of everyone who traded with us in August. Most traders who buy an evaluation do not pass it. Most who pass do not scale to five figures. A 19.3x month is real, it happened, and it is an outlier by definition. Anyone showing you a leaderboard without saying that is selling you something.

This report also does not tell you our pass rate or our denial rate. It tells you what we paid, not how many people did not get paid. Payouts do get denied here, for the reasons we publish and enforce: microscalping and HFT-style behavior, and account sharing or grouping. We explain every one of those in plain English in our rules guide, and we would rather you read them before you buy than discover them at withdrawal.

And a payout report is a self-reported number. We are publishing our own figure on our own website, which is exactly the kind of claim you should not take on trust. So do not. Go read the Trustpilot reviews sorted lowest first, go look at the payout certificates traders post in the Discord payouts channel with dates and account sizes on them, and check whether the picture matches this page. If it ever stops matching, that is a finding, and you should act on it.

Why we publish this at all

A good prop firm and a bad one look identical from the outside. The marketing is the same, the landing pages are the same, the testimonials are the same. What actually separates them is whether the money moves, consistently, to a lot of different people, month after month, and whether the firm will put that on the record where you can check it against reality later.

August: $2,061,220.67, spread wide, with 28 traders promoted to live capital.

We will publish September’s the same way, including if it is smaller.

Are these payout results typical?

No. The traders named here are the highest performers of the month out of the full trader base. Most traders who buy an evaluation do not pass it, and most who pass do not reach five-figure monthly payouts. These figures show what is possible at the top end, not what an average trader should expect.

Do all FFF payouts get approved?

No. Payouts are denied when a trader breaks a published rule, most commonly microscalping and HFT-style trading, or sharing, grouping, or hedging accounts. The rules are published before purchase and explained in plain English in our rules guide.

How can I verify these payout numbers?

This is a self-reported figure, so treat it as a claim to check rather than a fact to accept. Read the Trustpilot reviews lowest-first, look at the dated payout certificates traders post publicly, and compare what you find against this page and the ones that follow it each month.
