BrightFunded prices its challenges in euros: €277 for the 50K 2-Step Bright, and €297 each for 2-Step Classic and 1-Step. The 2-Step plans use a static max loss and have no consistency rule. The first payout comes 30 days after your first funded trade, later than most firms.

Your loss limit sits at a fixed level below the starting balance and never moves. Profits widen your cushion instead of tightening it.
