Tradeify and Bulenox are both one-time-fee futures prop firms with no monthly subscription. Tradeify publishes detailed rules for its plans, including payout caps and buffers. Bulenox offers a choice of drawdown model and no minimum trading days, but the official pages we could read did not publish its profit split or payout terms. This comparison uses each firm's official site and help center as checked on November 3, 2026.

Quick verdict

  • Choose Tradeify if you want a published 90/10 split and payout schedule, no activation fee, a plan with no consistency rule (Growth) and named platforms across Tradovate, Rithmic and WealthCharts.
  • Choose Bulenox if you want a choice between real-time trailing and end-of-day drawdown, no minimum trading days and a Rithmic connection, and you are willing to confirm its payout rules in writing first.

Cost

Tradeify's 50K Growth evaluation costs $145 and Select costs $165, paid once with no activation fee. Resets cost $95 and $109, and there is no time limit to reach the target. Bulenox's 50K Qualification account costs $175 once, and its 25K costs $145, compared with $99 for Tradeify's 25K Growth. Bulenox access lasts 30 days, so a slow evaluation means buying again. Bulenox did not publish a fee for activating a Master account after you pass, which makes its full cost harder to estimate. Both firms also offer accounts that skip the evaluation: Tradeify Lightning from $345 and Bulenox Fast Track from $338.

Rules

Drawdown

Every Tradeify evaluation uses an end-of-day trailing drawdown that is enforced in real time. On funded Select accounts it locks at $100 above the starting balance once a trigger is reached. Bulenox lets you choose at purchase. Option 1 is a real-time trailing drawdown with full size and no daily limit. Option 2 is end-of-day with a daily limit and balance-based scaling. The 50K drawdown is $2,000 at Tradeify and up to $2,500 at Bulenox Qualification.

Daily loss limit

Tradeify Growth has a soft daily limit ($1,250 on 50K) that stops trading for the day without failing the account. Select has none in evaluation, and Select Flex has none once funded. Bulenox Option 1 has none, while Option 2 has one that pauses trading. Its Qualification amounts were not published, though Fast Track 50K Option 2 is $1,200. Our daily loss calculator shows how much room each limit leaves for your position size.

Consistency and minimum days

Tradeify Growth has no consistency rule and a one-day minimum. Select uses a 40% rule in evaluation only, which effectively means at least three days. Bulenox has no minimum days, and its funded consistency rule was not readable on the pages we checked.

Trading hours

Tradeify positions must be closed by 4:45 p.m. ET, with no weekend holding, and news trading is allowed. Bulenox's Fast Track page says positions must be closed before 15:59 CT. Its news and weekend answers were not readable.

Payouts

Tradeify pays 90/10 on sim funded accounts and 80/20 on Elite Live. Select Flex allows a request every five winning days ($150 a day on 50K), up to 50% of profit, with a $250 minimum and a $2,500 cap on 50K accounts bought from September 1, 2026. Select Daily allows daily requests above a $2,100 buffer on 50K, capped at $1,250. Growth needs five profitable days. Tradeify says requests are usually processed within 24 hours after Rise onboarding.

For Bulenox, we could not verify the split, payout frequency, minimum, cap or buffer. Its help center lists these headings, but the content did not load on the official pages we accessed. This is the main gap between the two firms.

Platforms

Tradeify offers three connections: Tradovate (Tradovate, NinjaTrader, TradingView), Rithmic (Tradesea, Quantower, Sierra Chart, R|Trader) and WealthCharts. Bulenox runs on Rithmic and advertises "20+ platforms" without naming them, so check yours works with a Bulenox Rithmic login before buying.

Who each firm suits

Tradeify

Tradeify suits day traders who want a fixed one-off cost, clear published payout rules and broad platform choice, and who flatten before 4:45 p.m. ET. It is our highest-scoring firm at 8.3 out of 10.

Bulenox

Bulenox suits cost-conscious traders who like choosing their drawdown model and want no minimum days, and who will confirm payout terms with the firm before committing. It scores 6.4 out of 10, mainly because those terms are not published.
