Effortless and Seamless

They’ve made the process of signing up and getting started simple and effortless. Was up and running within 5min of signing up, and once the assessment phase was completed, received confirmation of funded account within an hour

I’ve had a few interactions with the support staff, and those have been pleasant and trouble free.

The clear guidelines and with regards to risk management and drawdowns is super helpful and has helped me become more disciplined in my trading approach

Looking forward to the trading journey ahead.

All good so far!

I've just passed my 1-step challenge account. The platform experience (MT4) and communictions have been great and look forward to recieving my funded account details.

The risk managment rules are pretty clear i.e 1% risk per trade for 1-step account and no news trading (3min window before and after event). Will update this review as i go along and give feedback regarding payouts etc.

First Time Funded with VF

The first part of the process has been good with regards to buying an account and getting your details. I guess for most traders the important part will be how the funded stage is and I hope is as smooth as the first stage.

Vault Funder is local

Vault Funder is local, it's South African, that's why I chose them. Their trading conditions was hard at first, but adjusting to them has made me a better trader. And if I can adjust and become consistently profitable, so can you. Thank you Vault Funder.

Overall an excellent Propfirm

Their support team is excellent, specially Tarrin which was the person who helped me.
They are hands on and always there to support and they really do want to help their traders to succeed and not like other propfirms.
Just to put it in perspective to the people out there reading this, I have a live account and my account was breached according to their rules, it was a honest mistake from my side and they still had the understanding to the situation and unbreached my account where other firms wouldn’t even bother to listen.

So 5 stars for them showing they care more about their traders!
