MyFundedFutures Ranks First Among Futures Prop Firms After a 2024 Compliance Overhaul Forced By Regulators

MyFundedFutures topped PropScorer’s August 2026 ranking of 49 futures prop firms with 126 million dollars paid across 56,937 payouts, following a compliance overhaul driven by its clearing partners.

MyFundedFutures topped PropScorer's independently tracked ranking of 49 futures prop trading firms in August 2026 with a PropScore of 83 out of 100, edging ahead of Lucid Trading and Apex Trader Funding. The same tracker credits the firm with 126 million dollars paid across 56,937 individual payouts over the trailing 90 days, an average of 64 payouts and 142,000 dollars a day, which PropScorer describes as the deepest independently verifiable payout record it tracks across the sector.

That current standing follows a compliance overhaul the firm did not choose voluntarily. In October 2024 MyFundedFutures blocked new account registrations from 21 countries including China, Nigeria, the Philippines, South Africa and the United Arab Emirates, citing restrictions imposed by the US registered futures commission merchants that clear its trades. CEO Matthew Leech said at the time that the firm had identified a list of countries that would never be approved to trade live under compliance and regulatory guidance from those clearing partners.

The Affiliate Cleanup

The same overhaul reached MyFundedFutures's affiliate programme. Affiliates who had not generated at least 50 individual trader deposits since launch lost access from 30 October 2024, with removal notices and a final payout for those below the threshold. Leech said the firm could not adequately monitor smaller affiliates it lacked a direct relationship with, and that MyFundedFutures remained responsible for how those affiliates advertised its products online, a responsibility that sits close to how BestForex.io's own referral and partner content is expected to represent the brokers it covers.

What Changed Since

By June 2025 MyFundedFutures and its sister firm Nortex Capital Partners had adopted ComplianceAlpha, a regulatory compliance platform built by ACA Group, adding market abuse surveillance, communication monitoring, centralised policy management and staff training. Philip Fried, the firm's regulatory compliance manager, said traders suffer when firms treat compliance as an afterthought and that the firm treats governance as a foundational pillar. Those upgrades, and the country restrictions before them, sit behind the payout numbers PropScorer is now tracking in real time.

Industry Implication

Funded trading remains a largely self policed industry, so a firm's own payout ledger, verified independently rather than self reported, is one of the few checks a trader can actually rely on. MyFundedFutures's current ranking is a genuine data point in its favour. It followed, rather than preceded, a period of geographic restrictions and affiliate discipline forced by the compliance requirements of the futures commission merchants it depends on, and that order of events is worth knowing before treating a live leaderboard position as the whole picture.

Not just a Trustpilot score the firm can influence with review requests. That is real, and it is rare enough in funded trading to be worth saying plainly. It is also true that the firm's current compliance posture was built after regulatory pressure through its clearing partners, not ahead of it, and that the affiliate cleanup happened only once Leech acknowledged the firm could not monitor who was promoting it.

A leaderboard position earned after the fact is still earned. Traders should just know which came first.
