Instant Funding trades under Acello Ltd, a company registered in London since 2020. Lewis James Mansbridge and Will Shearer founded it. It is a funded trader challenge firm, not a licensed broker, though it uses FCA regulated ThinkMarkets and its own MetaTrader 5 licence for trade execution.
Traders can skip an evaluation and buy an instant funded account, or choose a 1, 2, or 3 phase model instead. Instant accounts carry an 80 percent profit split and a 10 percent trailing drawdown that locks at 5 percent once you reach 5 percent profit. The first payout opens 14 days after the first trade, then Instant Funding pays weekly.
Instant Funding built a Trustpilot score near 4.5 from thousands of reviews, though Trustpilot has removed some reviews before for guideline breaches. Traders also describe payout denials tied to a rule violation raised only after they asked to be paid. US clients were disrupted in 2026 when ThinkMarkets cut off prop firm access there.
