## Overview

FuturesElite is a futures firm run by Quantum SRL from Latina, Italy. It sells one-step evaluations on CME products for a one-time fee, plus instant funded accounts. The funded account is created the moment you pass, with no activation fee. It suits intraday traders who want an end-of-day drawdown and a few different trade-offs to pick from.

### How the evaluation works

- **Elite:** a 5% target on 25K and 6% above that, an end-of-day trailing drawdown and no daily loss limit. No day can be more than 40% of the profit you pass with, and there's a three-day minimum. From $99.
- **Prime:** a 6% target, an end-of-day drawdown and a daily loss limit. No consistency rule and no minimum days, so one good day can pass it.
- **Nitro:** a 6% target with no daily loss limit and a two-day minimum. Watch the funded stage: the drawdown switches to intraday trailing until it locks $100 above your starting balance.
- **Instant:** no evaluation. A 50K account starts with a $1,800 end-of-day drawdown and no daily loss limit.

### Rules worth knowing

All trades must be flat by 4:55 PM ET. The system closes anything left open, so there's no overnight or weekend holding. Tier 1 news (CPI, jobs report, EIA, key ag reports) is fine in the evaluation. On funded accounts a trade in the news window gets voided instead of failing the account.

### Getting paid

Elite funded accounts pay 90% with no consistency rule and no buffer, after six profitable days, with a flat cap per payout. Nitro pays daily once you've built a buffer. Instant pays 80%. Payouts go through Rise, by bank transfer or crypto, and small requests can be paid in crypto directly.

## Good

- One-time fees with no activation charge
- No consistency rule once an Elite account is funded
- Funded accounts are created the moment you pass
- Several programs, from Prime to instant accounts

## Watch for

- Tier 1 news trades are voided on funded accounts
- Flat per-payout caps on Elite
- Nitro funded accounts use an intraday trailing drawdown

## What traders say

Checked 2026-10-06.

- Trustpilot: no score (https://www.trustpilot.com/review/futureselite.com)
- Prop Firm Match (futures): 4.5 / 5 from 14 reviews (https://propfirmmatch.com/futures/prop-firms/futureselite/discussions)
- Forex Peace Army: no score (https://www.forexpeacearmy.com/forex-reviews/23050/futureselite-review)
- Reddit: no score (https://www.reddit.com/r/PropFirmTester/comments/1vatkfx/scam_alert_futures_elite_is_doing_whatever_they/)

FuturesElite is a young futures firm, running since late 2024, with a mostly positive but contested review record. Trustpilot no longer shows a score for it. Review sites reported in September 2026 that Trustpilot withdrew the rating after removing reviews that broke its guidelines, and that it flagged the company for pressuring people to change or remove negative reviews. Before that the page showed around 4 to 4.5 from about 300 reviews, mostly five stars. On Prop Firm Match it holds 4.5, but from only 14 reviews.

### What traders like

- **Support.** Fast, friendly replies are the most common praise on Trustpilot, often naming individual staff.
- **Payouts on a 90% split.** Many reviewers report regular payouts, and an independent tracker counted more than 4,000 on-chain payouts by September 2026.
- **Low cost and few rules.** People like the lack of an activation fee, no daily loss limit on most plans and a consistency rule they see as fair.

### Common complaints

- **Payouts denied or accounts closed.** Several reviewers on Reddit, Trustpilot and Forex Peace Army say profitable accounts were cancelled around payout time over trading behaviour, VPN use or rules they say weren't written down.
- **Rule changes.** Some say rules were changed without notice or read very strictly, such as what counts as breakeven.
- **Payout caps.** A few dislike the cap per payout on smaller accounts.
- **Trust in the reviews.** The Trustpilot warning has made some traders wary of the firm's positive reviews and of the 4.7 its own homepage still shows.

### Recently

- **July 2026:** a Reddit thread from 30 July accusing the firm of doing whatever it can to deny payouts drew wide discussion.
- **August to September 2026:** a review roundup put sentiment at three out of five, and Trustpilot removed the firm's score over review pressure. A Forex Peace Army complaint about rule changes was posted in September.
