Goat Funded Trader Reviews

My payout of $258.06 with 80% split ($206.45) was denied and my account (315015521) is terminated today, Claiming I have logged in from 3 different IPs :- 1) France (162.158.23.130) - 26th June 2) India (172.69.152.144) 3) Singapore (108.162.227.136) - 29th June The thing the accusation is false as I have not travelled to any of these locations, I didn't use any VPN/VPS service, and I didn't share my account with anyone. No one has access to my GFT Account or MT5 Credentials other than me. All these IP Addresses are of CLOUDFLARE which I have proved them by giving them the IP Lookup details from whois.com and ipinfo.io which clearly states that these IPs belong to CLOUDFLARE and on ipinfo.io it is clearly mentioned that these IPs are not related to any VPN/VPS service. I have even given them order receipts to prove that I was at my home and trading from my Home's Wi-Fi, Laptop and Mobile only. I have given them all the proof they asked for but in return every time they replied with the same template after 24-48 hours. This is a serious concern as the breach was not from my side and earlier when my 3 Payouts were denied due to (80% margin rule and 2-minute trade rule) I accepted that was my mistake, but this is clearly unfair as I didn't share my account or logged in from another location other than my Home. I hereby demand immediate reinstatement of my account 315015521 and approval of my legitimate payout.

I had 2 accounts with them 100 k instant and 100 k 2 step. I cleared both the accounts. Followed proper rules, all terms and conditions everything. In the instant account I requested for a payout of USD 6500 and on the 2 step account requested for USD 4445. They very conveniently have denied payouts for both the accounts. I requested for the instant account in the month of 12 June 2026 and for the 2 step account I requested on 12 July 2026. I started trading in the 2 step challenge Account once they falsely accused me of copy trading for the instant account. However, now once again they have denied my payout for the 2 step account using the same baseless reasons like copy trading. I trade alone at my setup at my home. I don't understand how can they openly deny payouts like this with false accussation and after denying they immediately breach the account so that we as traders cannot collect proof against them. Their customer care is useless they stop replying to you once they falsely deny your payouts and breach your accounts.

My experience with GFT is something I don't wish any trader goes through. On 1st April I bought a 2-step 100K account with GFT ($229) and they pushed their paylater challenge of the same size. I passed the two accounts and paid for the pay later funded account ($598), so by 14th April I had two funded accounts. 28th was my payout day for the 2-step account and by then I had generated a profit of $5055.05. Upon requesting and waiting, GFT on 30th slapped me with an email denying my payout on grounds of copy trading, saying between 16th and 21st I copy traded. The email had no attachment, nothing to substantiate their claim. And noteworthy, I never traded that account on 21st. My emails to the riskteam went unanswered, while those to the support were responded to by AI. After 15 days I made a post on X account to which GFT and Edward were tagged countlessly but no response came. Someone, whose name I have withheld made inquiry for me on X and email and GFT said that I was served with, get this, 'all sorts of proofs'! Then went ahead to offer me a free account to abandon my hard earned profits. I declined. They asked for my consent to share they evidence they claimed they sent me which I gave, and they NEVER SENT IT! One more person wrote an email to them and sought clarity about my payment and was treated to copied and similar emails, AI here and there. They should be thoroughly investigated. I want my money. I don't want free accounts. If I couldn't be paid while trading accounts I bought, what will I expect from a charity account? Traders please stay away from GFT. UPDATE: A reply was left here that I should send an email to lisagft@goatfundedtrader.com which I did. No reply to it for over 24Hrs. GFT asks people to send emails so they can avoid the online presence, then take you on an endless back-and-forth emails that are just but copy-pasted. I REPEAT, don't buy into reviews mostly left by excited traders who haven't reached the payout stage.

I had a terrible experience with GoatFundedTrader. I purchased a $1,000 Instant account for $1. The account had a 30-day expiry. I reached the maximum withdrawal threshold and submitted my payout request 7 days BEFORE the account expired — meaning my withdrawal was requested while the account was still fully active. However, my withdrawal was reversed with a 'Trading Rule Breach Detected' notice claiming my account had expired, which is completely false. GoatFundedTrader has failed to resolve this issue despite multiple follow-ups over 2 weeks. I do not recommend this firm, especially to traders in Africa.

Payout denied for copytrading/completely fabricated trading group. I've been trading since 2020. I've trained several people. I make a living from this and work in the industry, having worked at several prop firms. Account closed without the opportunity for a technical interview or anything else.

Very disappointed with my experience so far. My payout was rejected after my account was breached for alleged coordinated trading, but the timestamps used as evidence do not fully match. Some trades have 1–3 minute differences, which does not prove copied or synchronized trading. I have asked for a full review and clear evidence, but I am still waiting for a proper response. I purchased multiple accounts and was planning to share my journey publicly, but this situation seriously affects my trust in the firm. I hope Goat Funded Trader reviews my case fairly, responds to my emails, and resolves my payout properly.

Slow customer service, they don't pay much attention or give good answers when we have a problem, payment is slow. I followed all the consistency rules and meticulously ensured not to violate any GOAT Funded Trader rules. I requested my withdrawal on May 13th, 2026, and today, May 15th, 2026, when I was supposed to receive the payment, I was informed by email that my account had been blocked due to an alleged copy trade for other traders. I am here to state that I do not engage in any copy trading; I only have separate accounts on GOAT Funded Trader and operate exclusively manually on all of them. I affirm that this allegation by GOAT is a mistake, as I do not engage in copy trading and do not know how to do it on GOAT. I urgently request a resolution to this problem; I am very dissatisfied with this situation.

1-Star Review – Extremely Disappointed & Warn Others I purchased my first funded trading account from Goat Funded Trader with high hopes. After completing the challenge, I was expecting my $6000 payout on the $100k account. Suddenly, my account was hit with Breach ID 414792477 for alleged copy trading. I trade completely independently and have never used any copiers, signals, or shared accounts. Despite sending multiple emails to Support and the Risk Team for over 8 days, I received zero meaningful response. They eventually sent a final message saying the account is permanently banned with no chance of reinstatement or payout. I borrowed money to buy this account after being without one for months. This decision has caused me serious financial hardship. The total lack of communication and refusal to do a proper manual review is unacceptable. Warning to fellow traders: Be extremely careful with GFT. Their automated system can destroy your hard work and money with little to no support or explanation. I will never recommend them.

I purchased an Instant Pro account and, after 3 months, I requested a payout of approximately $2,947. However, just two days later, GFT rejected my payout, accusing me of copy trading. I have never copied anyone's trades, nor have I shared my trades with anyone. I contacted GFT support and asked them to provide proof of their allegation and to review my case again. It has now been over a month, and I have not received a single response from the GFT team. I have purchased more than 50 accounts from GFT, and now that I have reached the payout stage, you are falsely accusing me of copy trading. This is completely unfair and unacceptable. Due to this experience, I have decided to leave GFT, as it appears that payouts are denied when traders become profitable. I request that you provide evidence for your claim and conduct a proper review of my account and payout request.

I have just received an email stating that my payout request was refused and that my account has been blocked. The reason provided is that multiple people are allegedly using and trading on my account. However, this is completely impossible. I use a dedicated VPS, and I am the only one who has ever accessed this account. I have always used GOAT exclusively on this VPS, and the claim that another account was logged into it is factually incorrect. I am deeply disappointed by this decision. I manage a community of mentored students who constantly purchase challenges from GOAT based on my recommendation. This situation makes me seriously question the reliability of your firm. I request a thorough review of my case, as this is a clear misunderstanding regarding my VPS IP address. I look forward to your urgent response and a resolution to this matter.
