The5ers Reviews

I am writing this to alert the trading community about my recent experience with The5ers. Despite passing all the required trading phases and reaching the payout stage, the company has refused to pay my earned profits and summarily closed my account by weaponizing their own administrative process against me. The Context I purchased an account, successfully completed the evaluation phases, and requested a payout. My account was not a failed challenge; it was a fully compliant account waiting for withdrawal. Suddenly, I received an email requiring a "Risk Management Interview." This requirement was not clearly or transparently communicated as a mandatory barrier to payout during the initial purchase. The core promise is simple: pass the phases, get paid. Adding undocumented hurdles at the final stage is a major red flag. The Scheduling Trap On April 30, 2026, I received an email stating I had 2 days left to schedule the interview. On May 1, I accessed The5ers' own scheduling system and selected the earliest feasible date for me: May 11, 2026. I chose this date to ensure a stable internet connection and a quiet environment, which required taking time off from my professional job. The5ers' system officially confirmed this appointment. The Unfair Cancellation Despite having a confirmed appointment, the Risk Team waited until just two days before the interview to cancel it, shut down my account, and deny my payout. Their reasoning? They claimed the interview had to be completed within 5 business days—even though their own system offered and confirmed the May 11 date. * If May 11 was invalid, why did their system offer it? * Why did they confirm the appointment only to use it as a reason for termination later? * Why was there no attempt to reach out or reschedule before taking the nuclear option of closing the account? Selective Rule Enforcement After speaking with the Turkish trading community, I discovered that multiple traders have attended interviews beyond the 5-day window and received their payouts without issue. This suggests that the rule is being applied inconsistently and unfairly, specifically to deny payouts to successful traders. Evidence I have kept a full record of this ordeal, including: * The April 30 reminder email. * The May 1 calendar confirmation for the May 11 appointment. * The cancellation notice sent just 2 days before the scheduled meeting. * All correspondence with support and the "senior review" team, who refused to rectify this clear systemic error. Conclusion The5ers took my fee, watched me pass their challenges, and then used a scheduling technicality—caused by their own software—to avoid paying me. I will never trust this firm with my capital again. To all traders: Be extremely cautious. Document every email, every confirmation, and every "hidden" rule.

5%ers are my favorite firm by far they have the tightest of spreads and their rules are very reasonable. I would recommend them to anyone whos wanting to buy a challenge.

The5ers is a great prop firm with clear rules, reliable trading conditions, fair evaluation programs, and professional support. The platform feels stable, the execution is smooth, and the overall experience is very trader-friendly.

I been using this account and try to pass it through three month but I failed its good propfirm with great soared and broker the failed because the risk management issue

One of the best in terms of community and trust building. Though one issue I found is with the spread which cost you more of your profit. Other than that this firm is gem in prop industry.

The purchase was quick, and the account arrived promptly. The spreads seem to be relatively low for proprietary trading. Customer support was also very fast; once the account was approved, the next stage account was provided quickly. Overall, no problems.

The company has not processed my payout since April 9. The first payout attempt was simply canceled by the company without any email notification or proper explanation. The payout status disappeared and there was absolutely no communication from support until I contacted live chat myself. The second payout attempt turned into a very long and exhausting process. The company repeatedly requested payout details even though the information was already provided in the dashboard. Communication was extremely slow — every email response took around 2–3 working days, and the case only seemed to move forward after contacting live chat support again. The case was marked as “urgent” multiple times, and after a very long delay the payout status was finally changed to “approved”. However, despite this, the payout was canceled again. What makes the situation even more concerning is that during every payout attempt the company performs the same “risk review” process again from the beginning. One completed review apparently is not enough, and the same checks are repeated every single time, which from the outside looks more like delaying the process than an efficient payout procedure. Now this is already the third payout attempt, and once again the entire process is moving extremely slowly through email communication. Responses still take several working days and progress only happens after contacting live chat support. During this third attempt, the company initially suggested payout methods through RiseWorks and Wise, even though both payment platforms were not available for my case. It is very difficult to understand how a company with years of experience does not know which regions these payment platforms support. Even changing the payout method took additional waiting time and multiple follow-ups. At the same time, the “risk review” process is being repeated for the third time again, despite the previous reviews already being completed during earlier payout attempts. I have now provided SWIFT bank details as requested, but the payout process continues to drag on. It has been more than a month since April 9, and I still have not received my payout. Payout ID: 2106153 Ticket ID: ASXMQD In my opinion, this level of payout handling and communication does not match the standards expected from a company with many years in the industry. Right now, I honestly cannot recommend spending your valuable time, nerves, and money here until the company significantly improves its payout process, communication speed, and overall transparency regarding trader withdrawals. I sincerely hope to change my opinion about the company in the future and truly wish them to overcome this difficult period as soon as possible.
