I know uv got a lot to do but if I build to a large payout am I not gonna get it because I averaged into a negative position over 10 min even if I profit? Like a few have said. Not well explained.

One of the best prop firms in the industry. They have very flexible rules and regulation for swing traders. I really do worry for them because I don't know how they're going to sustain payouts if they have this flexible rules and regulation. I am funded by them on a 50K account first payout was denied I completely understand that. But second payout they paid me completely hassle free.

Highly recommend this prop firm.I really do think, if you understand their rules and regulation you can make good money from them and honest suggestion those who are reading my review take a good payout from them if you're consistent and switch to a live broker account after getting enough paid from them. Because if you are profitable and taking payout after payout from any prop firms, they will ultimately deny your payout because they also have to sustain in their business model.

So, final verdict, I do think DNA funded is a excellent prop firm in the industry right now. I don't know how long they will be this excellent but hopefully for a long time.

Highly recommend them.

More than 2.5% abnormal volatility…

More than 2.5% abnormal volatility occurred only on the DNA Funded XAGUSD chart within 5 minutes of the Monday market open on January 20, 2026.

This was during my second phase challenge and I was very close to passing.

I asked their support team for an explanation, but they could not provide any clear or technical answer.

Instead, they claimed that holding trades over the weekend is considered a “soft breach” — yet this rule is not clearly mentioned anywhere on their official website or trading rules.

This makes it feel like they can liquidate accounts at any time without transparency.

I strongly advise traders to be careful.
If a platform can create abnormal price movement and then blame the trader without written rules, it is simply a waste of time and money.

I would not recommend using DNA Funded.

Hi Jahangir,

For clarity and transparency, we are correcting several factual inaccuracies in this review.

The price movement referenced on XAGUSD occurred within minutes of the Monday market open on 20 January 2026. This exact movement is visible on independent third party charts, including TradingView using the OANDA XAGUSD feed. It reflects standard liquidity return and spread expansion at weekly open, which is a well documented market behaviour, particularly on metals.

DNA Funded does not create, modify, or manipulate pricing. All execution and chart data are sourced directly from the broker feed. The same movement occurred across independent market data at the same timestamp.

Your account was reviewed in full. Our support team compared the DNA Funded chart against independent market data in real time, and this explanation was acknowledged. Despite this, and in the interest of providing exceptional service, a complimentary account was issued as a goodwill gesture.

At no point were you instructed, pressured, or directed to change your review. You were simply asked whether, if you felt the matter had been addressed, you wished to update it.

We welcome genuine feedback. However, assertions that DNA Funded creates pricing, liquidates accounts arbitrarily, or applies undisclosed rules are factually incorrect and contradicted by independent market data.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. Our team is always available should you require further assistance.

SCAM ALERT DNAFunded- Stole $113, Now Demanding $17 More

DO NOT USE DNAFUNDED - THEY ARE RUNNING A SCAM.
I paid $113 USDT on December 19, 2025 for a challenge account. The blockchain PROVES they received my payment (Transaction: 7acd4dffc19ac21946c8c965da4ad77ea279012597d52bc8dd9e577157591a8c - verify it yourself on TronScan).
Despite irrefutable blockchain evidence showing 112.97 USDT delivered to their wallet address TPywr8t9YNcnLdvL4idXLA6P3miCpAxdVB, they:
Claimed they "never received payment"
Ignored blockchain proof multiple times
Asked for internal transaction IDs they already had
Only acknowledged receipt after I threatened to expose them publicly
Now for the REAL SCAM: They're demanding I send ANOTHER $17 (60 TRX) to "cover gas fees" before they'll refund MY OWN MONEY.
This is classic advance-fee fraud. They already have $113 of my money that blockchain proves they received. Now they want more before giving it back.
Red flags:
❌ Payment processor "failures" only they can see
❌ Denying blockchain-confirmed transactions
❌ Demanding customers pay to get their own money back
❌ Poor communication and constant deflection
TOTAL SCAM: $113 stolen + $17 ransom = $130 lost
Save your money. Use legitimate prop firms with transparent payment systems. DNAFunded is either incompetent or criminal - either way, STAY AWAY.
Blockchain doesn't lie. They have my money and are extorting more.

This review is misleading and does not accurately reflect how our payment process works.

We do not directly receive or control crypto payments at the point of checkout. All cryptocurrency payments are processed and temporarily held by our crypto payment provider until the transaction is fully confirmed and meets the required criteria. Funds are not credited to us unless and until that confirmation is completed.

Where a crypto transaction is underpaid, incorrectly routed, or fails provider confirmation checks, the funds remain with the payment provider. In such cases, any refund or reconciliation must be handled directly through that provider, not us.

We do not demand arbitrary fees to “release” funds, and we do not hold customer crypto while asking for additional payments. Claims to the contrary are incorrect.

We take allegations seriously and have asked the reviewer to contact our support team through official channels so the payment provider can be referenced and the matter clarified. Without following that process, the conclusions drawn in this review are inaccurate.

DNA Funded Support Team

They Denied my payout citing the 40% rule. They literally stole my profits. First payout I requested after 3 months. Please do not use this firm. They will lead you on with promises and deny your efforts. Would've been ok if they hadn't taken those profits I made, and completely reset the account. So now I need to hit a min of 3 trading days and wait 14 days before I can request a payout again! 14 days! just so they can reject my payout again. Please please save your money, but more than that save your time. Even in their tournaments I joined they let gamblers keep their profits and win accounts while consistent traders lose out. Because they want those gamblers to blow those accounts.

Reply from DNA Funded

Hi Hazem,

Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback. We understand how frustrating it can be to have a payout request declined, especially after a long trading period.

To clarify, the payout was not denied arbitrarily. The 40% consistency rule is a clearly published condition that applies to all traders equally and is designed to ensure profits are generated through consistent trading rather than single high-impact trades. In this case, the rule was breached, which is why the payout could not be approved.

No profits were taken or “stolen”. When a rule breach occurs, the account is reset in line with the challenge terms that were agreed to at signup. The minimum trading days and payout waiting period are standard platform requirements and are the same for all traders.

Regarding tournaments, results are based strictly on the published rules and performance metrics for that specific event. Account outcomes are not influenced by trading style, and no preference is given to “gamblers” over consistent traders.

We appreciate that this outcome is disappointing, and we are always happy to review specific trades or explain the calculation in detail. If you would like us to do that, please contact our support team directly with your account ID so we can assist further.

Kind regards,
DNA Funded Support Team

Strong Potential, Still a Work in Progress

In the past, I’ve had quite a few discussions with DNAFunded support. This was mostly due to the fact that the firm is still evolving - many rules and processes are clearly being shaped in real time. That can be frustrating at times, especially when things are not yet clearly defined.
That said, my most recent experience (where I unfortunately missed a meaningful amount of profit due to unclear hedging rules) was handled very professionally. The customer relations and risk teams approached the situation fairly and constructively, which I genuinely appreciate.

Overall, I believe DNA Funded has strong potential and a bright future. There are still areas that need refinement - e.g. news trading rules (currently very restrictive with long windows and additional events classified as "high impact") or the 40% consistency rule, which doesn’t account well for partial profit-taking and is more suited for day traders than swing traders.
Still, I see real effort and progress, and I believe the firm is moving in the right direction.

✅ Good things
- Relatively loose risk parameters – realistic and achievable compared to many other prop firms
- Very responsive support team – fast replies and good communication
- Wide range of tradable instruments, including a solid selection of individual stocks/equities

⚠️ Things that need improvement
- Some rules are not yet well-defined, which can create confusion in edge cases
- Certain rules are more suitable for day trading, but not for swing or position traders. For example, partial profits only count toward the consistency rule once the full position is closed
- No automated visibility into 'soft breach' rules, such as consistency or news trading restrictions - traders only find out when requesting a payout

Overall impression: DNA Funded is still maturing, but the foundation is strong.

Hi LM,

Thank you for the detailed and thoughtful review. We appreciate both the positive feedback and the constructive criticism.

You’re absolutely right that DNA Funded has been evolving, and we recognise that clarity around rules is critical. Since your experience, we have updated and clarified our hedging rules, which are now clearly outlined in our Rules and Conditions to avoid ambiguity in future cases.

We also appreciate your comments around consistency and news trading rules. These are areas we actively review as the platform matures, particularly to better accommodate different trading styles while maintaining fair and consistent risk controls.

It’s great to hear that your recent interaction with our support and risk teams was handled professionally. Feedback like yours helps guide our improvements, and we’re committed to continuing that progress.

Thanks again for taking the time to share such a balanced perspective.

Kind regards,

Avoid this firm like the Plague

Avoid this firm, honestly, their whole business model is to obfuscate the rules, get you to request a payout and have it be declined - which would be fine if they didn't take your balance and tell you to try again.

No respect for the customers, or how much profit you make for them, absolutely shameless.

My first account due for a $1,250 payout was declined due to the consistency rule, usually these firms don't let you request a payout unless you meet their rules, here they let you request it and take your profit as punishment.

My second account due for a $23,750 payout was declined due to 3 out of 69 trades being flagged as opposite trades (their cursed definition of a hedge), a gold long and an spx short worth $500. All profits taken after 3 days of waiting for the payout, no communication, no remorse just excuses when I complained. Also mind you they cap your profit at 5% on the first 3 payouts, so this would have only been a $10,000 payout, not like they didn't make a lot of profit on me anyway but apparently it wasn't enough.

Went to a real prop firm after this, got funded paid into my bank account in 11 days, the payout took 8 hours.

I just wish I didn't waste my time, money and trading opportunities on this awful prop firm.

(wasted $3k on accounts, $25k in withdrawable profit, hope they choke on my money)

Reply from DNA Funded

We understand how disappointing it is to have a payout adjusted, but we need to clarify a key point in your review.

DNA Funded does not use a hard “consistency rule.” What you’re referring to is our profit distribution rule, which limits how much of the total payout can come from a single trading day. This is not a breach of the account. When this rule is exceeded, only the portion of profit above the 40% threshold is removed. All remaining eligible profit stays on the account and is payable once other payout conditions are met.

To address the points raised:

No profits are confiscated as a penalty. Only excess profit above the published distribution threshold is excluded from the payout calculation.

Accounts are not failed for breaching the profit distribution rule.

Opposite trades / hedging are defined in our Rules and Conditions and are reviewed across correlated instruments, not by individual trade size.

Initial payout caps are part of our disclosed model and apply equally to all traders.

Payout requests are manually reviewed to ensure compliance with all rules, which is why approval occurs after submission rather than being auto-blocked at request time.

We respect your decision to trade elsewhere and wish you success. However, we strongly disagree with the suggestion that our platform operates in bad faith or withholds profits unfairly. Our rules are published, applied consistently, and enforced transparently.

If you’d like a detailed breakdown of how your payout was calculated or which trades were flagged, our support team remains available to assist.

Kind regards,
DNA Funded Support Team

There was no consistency rule on your website. I was refused my payout because of a hidden 40% profit distribution rule, which is very unfair. Firstly this should be stated on your FAQ so that traders can work with it . Can I still get my payout?

Hi Silverhair,

Our Profit Distribution rule, is clearly displayed in both our FAQ section and our Rules and Conditions. These guidelines are visible before any trader begins a challenge and are designed to ensure transparent and fair trading expectations for all participants.

Trustpilot is not the appropriate channel for account specific questions, so we cannot discuss individual payout requests here. If you need help with your account, please contact our support team through the official portal and they will assist you.

Regards

One small thing I love is their dashboard. I like that its not just a basic page it has great analytics on my trading, shows us exactly how far we are from our target and what our lowest levels are. It helps a lot with managing my trades and staying on track with the rules.
