Funded Futures Network's homepage now prices its MAX Standard evaluation as a one-time payment and states there is no activation fee after passing.
What happened
Funded Futures Network (FFN) now presents its MAX Standard evaluation on its homepage as a one-time purchase. The account selector labels the plan "MAX Standard · One-time · 5 days to pass · EOD," and the checkout summary reads "One-time payment."
Directly under the pricing card, FFN states: "Evaluation price shown. No hidden fees. No activation fee after passing." The firm's Steady evaluation (EOD, 2 days to pass) is also labelled one-time on the same page.
What the homepage shows (checked 15 October 2026)
| MAX Standard size | Listed price (before discount codes) |
|---|---|
| 25K | $148 |
| 50K | $178 |
| 100K | $348 |
| 150K | $408 |
| 250K | $658 |

Why it matters for traders
- Cost comparison: a one-time fee with no activation charge after passing means the price shown is the stated evaluation cost, per FFN. Compare total cost against firms that bill monthly or charge activation on funding.
- Check older documentation: some FFN help-center pages may not yet reflect the homepage pricing. Where the two differ, confirm with FFN support before buying; we cite the homepage as the current firm source.
