Introduction
2025 was a record year for the OneUp Trader funded trader program. Payouts, rule changes, and creating an easier path to funding were the main themes of the year. This year also saw an incredible withdrawal of $176,841 from Karan, a trader from the US, whose strategy and style we will look at later on in this article.
Our 24-hour-a-day, 7-day-a-week support remains one of our top priorities, and traders love that they can get instant answers to their questions via live chat, phone, or email at any time of the day.
Trading days were reduced, and pricing changes were made to make it even easier and cheaper for traders to get started. Account analytics got numerous upgrades, and Trustpilot reviews reached over 2,000 with a score of 4.7!
We also learnt a lot from our funded traders in 2025 about what works and what doesn’t, something we will also dive into in this review, so let’s get started.
Record Stats for the OneUp Trader Funded Trader Program
Behind the headlines and trader stories, the numbers from 2025 show just how much the OneUp Trader funded trader program grew over the year. More traders reached funding, more capital was put to work, and more profits were paid out than ever before.
In total, over $311,025,000 in buying power was allocated to traders who successfully passed their evaluations and reached funded status. That capital was spread across 4,617 funded accounts, reflecting both the increase in participation and the impact of pricing and rule changes that lowered the barrier to entry.
Withdrawals were a major highlight of the year. These withdrawals ranged from first-time payouts to repeat, high-performing traders scaling their accounts and withdrawing multiple five- to six-figure amounts consistently.
These figures reinforce what we observed throughout the year: an increasing number of traders reaching funding, more opportunities to trade large capital, and a steady stream of payouts to traders who adhered to the rules and executed their strategies effectively.
2025 stats at a glance:
- Total value of funded accounts (buying power): $311,025,000
- Total number of funded accounts: 4,617
Together, these numbers show that 2025 was a true breakout year for funded traders at OneUp Trader, marked by real growth, real payouts, and momentum that carries strongly into 2026.
Trustpilot Reviews and Trader Feedback
Trader feedback continued to be a strong indicator of how the OneUp Trader platform performed throughout 2025. By the end of the year, OneUp Trader surpassed 2,000 verified Trustpilot reviews, maintaining an overall rating of 4.7 out of 5.
What stands out most when reading through the reviews is consistency. Traders repeatedly highlighted the same strengths: clear rules, fair evaluations, fast and reliable support, and a platform that does what it says it will do.
Support was a recurring theme. With 24/7 availability via live chat, phone, and email, traders regularly mentioned how quickly they were able to get answers, whether they were brand new to the platform or already funded. Several reviews specifically referenced how easy it was to get set up and understand the rules early on, reducing confusion during the evaluation phase.
Experienced traders also weighed in. A number of reviews came from traders who had tried multiple prop firms and described OneUp Trader as a more “seasoned” or “fair” option, particularly when it came to pricing, transparency, and execution.
Overall, the Trustpilot feedback from 2025 reinforced what the numbers already showed. As more traders joined the platform and progressed through evaluations and funding, satisfaction remained high. The volume of reviews, combined with the strong rating, reflects a platform that continued to deliver a consistent experience at scale throughout the year.
Changes Made in 2025
One of the most impactful changes carried into 2025 was the reduction in trading days. After being lowered from 15 to 10 in late 2024, traders entered 2025 with a shorter, more realistic evaluation timeline that better reflected how many disciplined traders actually perform. During select promotional periods, this was reduced even further, with some traders completing evaluations in as few as 7 trading days.
Pricing also saw a major improvement with a new evaluation model: traders pay 50% of the fee upfront, with the remaining balance due only if they pass and activate their funded account. This change applies to both standard and express accounts, drastically reducing the upfront cost of an evaluation and making it even easier to get funding.
To further reduce risk and cost, reset fees for the $25,000 and $50,000 accounts were lowered to just $50. This made it easier for traders to recover from small mistakes without needing to repurchase a full evaluation, encouraging learning and consistency over “all-or-nothing” attempts.
The OneUp Trader dashboard also received several upgrades in 2025. New analytics and usability improvements gave traders clearer insights into their performance, helping them better track progress, manage risk, and stay aligned with evaluation rules (more on this later).
Promotional periods throughout the year added even more value for traders. During these windows, traders benefited from:
- Profit splits of up to 95%
- Evaluation discounts ranging from 20% to 60%
- Free account resets, further lowering downside risk
- Lower trading days
- $10 accounts
Taken together, the 2025 changes reflect a consistent theme: OneUp Trader focused on removing unnecessary obstacles while keeping the core challenge intact. By lowering costs, shortening timelines, improving tools, and offering meaningful promotions, the platform made it easier for serious traders to reach funding and stay funded.
Biggest Withdrawal of the Year
The standout withdrawal of 2025 came from Karan, a 31-year-old trader from the United States, who finished the year with total withdrawals of $176,841 across multiple funded accounts. His largest single withdrawal, $73,000 in just 11 trading days, was the biggest payout made to an individual trader during the year.
This wasn’t Karan’s first time at OneUp Trader. Earlier on, he had already withdrawn $17,500 and later $28,000, but 2025 marked a clear turning point. The scale, speed, and consistency of his withdrawals showed a trader who had developed tremendously and learned how to fully leverage the program.
A defining moment came during a highly volatile trading session driven by macroeconomic news. Following tariff-related announcements and a sharp reversal in the NASDAQ, Karan executed a high-conviction trade that resulted in a $50,000 profit in a single day. Rather than overtrading, he scaled into the position, managed risk carefully, and allowed the trade to develop, capturing the majority of the move.
What makes Karan’s performance particularly notable is how his strategy evolved. Earlier in his trading career, he admitted to sizing too aggressively, which made accounts vulnerable to drawdowns. Over time, he adjusted by reducing position size, building equity gradually, and only increasing exposure once the account could support it. That discipline played a major role in his 2025 success.
Equally important was the reliability of the withdrawal process. After submitting his request following the $73,000 run, the funds were processed without delays or complications. For Karan, who had experienced payout issues at other firms in the past, this reinforced his confidence in OneUp Trader as a long-term partner.

A Look at Account Analytics
In 2025, the account analytics section received upgrades both to performance and overall appeal. Traders can track their account balance in real time, the number of trading days they still need to trade, and their consistency, which sums up the best three trading days. This way, traders don’t need to calculate anything themselves, allowing them to focus on what matters most: their trading.
The statistics section shows everything from total profit/loss to average holding time. Traders can use these statistics to see where they can improve and find ways to implement them into their trading plan.
Other graphs, such as win/loss ratio, daily net profit, and performance by time, are all available to traders on the evaluation and funded accounts.

Looking Toward 2026
With the progress made throughout 2025, the focus heading into 2026 is to continue building. The past year highlighted what traders value most: clear rules, realistic evaluations, reliable payouts, and a platform that removes unnecessary obstacles from the funding process. Those priorities will continue to guide decisions moving forward.
In 2026, traders can expect further improvements aimed at making the path to funding smoother without compromising the simplicity. The rule and pricing changes introduced in 2025 proved that lowering barriers helps more traders reach funded status, and that approach will remain central going into the new year.
Platform development will also continue. The account analytics improvements rolled out in 2025 gave traders better visibility into their performance, and additional enhancements are planned to help traders track progress, manage risk, and identify what is working in their trading. These tools are especially important as traders scale and manage larger amounts of capital.
Support will remain a core focus. With trading happening around the clock, access to fast and knowledgeable assistance remains critical. Maintaining 24/7 availability via live chat, phone, and email will continue to be a priority as the trader base grows.
Perhaps most importantly, the lessons learned from funded traders in 2025 will carry directly into 2026. Consistency, controlled risk, and patience continued to outperform aggressive, short-term approaches; this is what we learnt from the funded traders. These insights will help shape future updates and reinforce the type of trading behavior the program is designed to support.
