Best Prop Firm Evaluations Under $200
A 100K evaluation under $200 is mostly the territory of subscription-priced futures firms and discount cycles on the major forex challenges. The list below filters every firm we screen for a 100K-equivalent fee below the $200 line.
A cheap evaluation fee is not a free funded account, it is a cheap simulated assessment with no guarantee of passing. Use the price floor to budget for testing a strategy, then move to the firm whose rules actually fit your strategy. The cheapest firms are almost always not the firms with the best funded experience.

Frequently asked questions
Are cheap evaluations a scam?
No, but they are a marketing funnel. The firm makes money on volume of failed evaluations, not on funded payouts. Repeated purchases can make a low entry fee expensive overall.
Why do futures firms tend to be cheaper?
Subscription pricing can reduce the upfront fee but adds recurring costs. Compare the live fee and renewal terms before purchasing.
Do cheap firms pay out reliably?
Price alone does not establish payout reliability. Check independent payout evidence and the live firm record before buying an evaluation.
