FundedSeat is a futures-focused funding platform offering several account models, including 1-Step Daily, Rapid, Sprint, Daily Pro, Flex, Instant Direct and Instant Bolt. Traders can choose between classic evaluations and instant funded-style models, with most futures programs using EOD trailing drawdown and a 90% profit split.
FundedSeat Funding Models
FundedSeat offers futures evaluations and instant funded-style models with daily payout access on selected accounts. Use code PROP and confirm the active pricing, discount and exact account rules before purchasing.
Firm Overview
FundedSeat is built for futures traders who want flexible account models and fast payout access. The firm offers standard 1-step evaluations, instant funded-style accounts and several payout structures depending on the selected model.
