The5ers charges one-time evaluation fees, not subscriptions. The High Stakes 2-Step program starts at $19 for a $2.5K account (sizes up to $100K are available), while the 1-Step program costs a flat $249.
The5ers costs between $19 and $249 as a one-time fee, with two programs: High Stakes (2-Step) starting at $19 and 1-Step Growth at $249.
Both are one-off payments per challenge, not subscriptions. Here's what each one includes.
High Stakes (2-Step)
Price: $19 one-time for the $2.5K account (larger $5K–$100K sizes are available, with fees shown at checkout)
Best For: Traders who want a low-cost entry into a structured two-step challenge
Refund Policy: Your fee is refunded once you reach the Funded Trader stage
Other Features:
- Unlimited trading period, so there's no deadline pressure
- 10% profit target in Step 1, 5% in Step 2, and 10% for scaling
- 5% maximum daily loss and 10% maximum loss at every stage
- 80–100% profit split once funded, with scaling up to $500,000
- 1:100 leverage on MT5 across FX, metals, indices, oil, and crypto
This is The5ers' most popular program, and the setup is simple: pay once, pass two demo evaluation stages, and the fee comes back to you when you're funded. Step 2 doesn't cost extra. You'll need 3 profitable days of at least 0.5% per stage, so it rewards steady, consistent traders. If you like clear rules and gradual scaling, this is your lane. 👍
1-Step (Hyper Growth)
Price: $249 one-time
Best For: Confident traders who want a single evaluation and faster access to payouts
Refund Policy: The fee is refunded from the third payout
Other Features:
- Unlimited trading period with a 10% profit target
- 3% maximum daily loss and 6% maximum loss
- 75–25% profit split with a 10% bonus once funded
- $250 minimum withdrawal and a $2,000 payout cap
- Up to 2 active accounts at 1:100 leverage
The 1-Step route costs more up front but skips the second evaluation stage. That suits experienced traders who trust their process and want to reach funded status in one pass. If you're newer to funded challenges, the cheaper High Stakes entry is usually the gentler start.
Neither program comes with a free plan or free trial. What The5ers does build in is a refund through payouts: both programs return your fee once you're trading profitably. Just remember that accounts expire after 30 days without trading activity, and fees for the larger High Stakes sizes ($5K–$100K) aren't listed on the page, so confirm the exact cost for your chosen size before you buy.
