Breakout Prop
Crypto-only, so it sits outside the CFD comparison this register was built for. It has been acquired by Kraken — which we did not know when we first read it, and which is the kind of backing almost nobody else in this list has.
A correction to our own record. This row previously said the firm's site was unreachable for verification. That was our limitation, not a finding about the firm: the bare domain refuses automated requests, the www host answers normally, and the site is live, selling one-time evaluations and publishing a payout leaderboard. Two things follow. The earlier note that it is registered in St Vincent and the Grenadines with no regulated backing predates the Kraken finding and has not been re-argued, so the backing score on this row is stale rather than wrong. And the score itself was set without a plan-by-plan reading, which this firm is now queued for.
Not enough published data to simulate this firm’s floor.
No disqualifier applies, and there is a plan here worth trading — but something real is wrong, and we name it. Read the reservation before you pay.
What they published
“Breakout has been acquired by Kraken, one of the world's largest crypto exchanges.”Scorecard
14Static at both stages — the floor never moves
A named company, but no financial regulator anywhere — or a light-touch one only
Workable, but a cap or a waiting period bites
A stale marketing figure and nothing more
Under a year, or too few reviews to mean anything
Each axis is scored 0–5 against a published scale. The line under each bar is the rung this firm landed on — not our summary of it, the scale entry itself.
Trustpilot
Trustpilot attaches this to the whole high-risk investment category. It says nothing about this firm in particular — several of the best-rated firms here carry it — and we do not score it.
What this firm published
Everything below is quoted from a page we opened, on the date shown. The quotes are in the firm’s own language, exactly as published — never edited, never shortened, never swapped for a translation. On the Spanish edition our own rendering appears underneath each one, unquoted and marked as ours: the quotation marks on this site mean the words are the firm’s, and nothing we wrote ever wears them. Where we have not read enough to put a number on an axis, we say so instead of guessing.
2/5
Can you even pass?
Almost nobody who pays for an evaluation ever reaches a funded account, so this is the part of the product most customers actually buy. Every firm advertises its profit target; none of them advertises that target next to how much you are allowed to lose while chasing it.
2/5
Can you keep the money?
The drawdown takes the account away; the payout rules take the money. Answered by whichever of the two we can measure and is worse — they are two ways of losing the same thing, so a good half cannot pay for a bad one.
1/5
Is anyone behind it?
A named company, a market, and rules you could read before paying. These three do not substitute for one another — a company you can sue does not stop existing because the account is a simulation — so this is the average of the ones we could measure, not the worst.

“(i) no leverage is available to Kraken Consumer Prop Users, and all positions are opened and maintained at 1x with no margin, notwithstanding the Leverage Limits set forth in Annex A”No score here, on purpose. The six axes above ask whether the firm can take your money or refuse to pay it. These rules ask something else — whether you can trade your way — and the right weight depends on who is reading: a minimum holding time decides the account for a scalper and is invisible to anyone else, while the weekend rule is the reverse. A single number would be wrong for half of you, and would look decided. The firm’s own sentences are here; the judgement is yours.
How it grows
What makes the account get bigger, how big it can get, and whether the path ends at a real market or at a larger simulation.
Where the path endsat a larger simulation—
“References in this Agreement to trade, trading, buy, sell, position, order or similar terms refer solely to simulated, notional transactions made through the Demo Account on the Evaluation Dashboard, and do not constitute, and shall not be construed as, actual trading, investing or dealing in any real Digital Asset or other financial instrument, or actual execution on any live market, centralized exchange or DEX.”One of these questions is scored and it is not here. “Does the cap rise with the account” sits on the cash axis, next to the cap itself, because it has a right answer: a bigger account that pays the same cheque has handed you a larger number and the same money. The three below are different. A two-million ceiling is the whole point of the product for one reader and irrelevant to someone who wants one clean payout, so the firm’s sentences are here and the weight is yours.
The rules in writing
Could you read the rule before paying, and can they change it afterwards?
Where the rule that binds you is publishedin a help-centre article the contract never mentions1.20/4
“You represent and warrant that you have fully and carefully reviewed, read and understand the FAQs set forth on the following Company webpage: https://intercom.help/breakoutprop/en/ .”If the rule that binds you lives in a help article your contract never mentions, you did not sign it.
Can it change the rules without noticeyes, and it says so0.60/3
“The Company reserves the right to replace, modify or amend this Agreement at any time without prior notice and within its sole and absolute discretion.”The clause that makes every dated verdict perishable, including ours. Near-universal, so not fatal.

“Updated as of July 29, 2026”Without a date you cannot tell whether the rule you read is the rule they apply.

If it goes wrong, which company do you claim against, and under whose laws?
The company you contract withBreakout Trading Group, LLCPayward Oceanic Ltd.4/4
“This Breakout Evaluation Agreement (this Agreement ) between Breakout Trading Group, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company doing business as Breakout (the Company ), and the undersigned ( Evaluation Trader or you ), effective as of the time and date you click the I Agree button.”“Evaluation Traders who achieve a Passing Evaluation will be notified of such result by email and will become eligible to enter into a separate agreement (a Funded Trader Agreement ) with Payward Oceanic Ltd., a British Virgin Islands limited company ( POL ), pursuant to which you will be engaged by POL as a Funded Trader (a Funded Trader ), subject to the terms and conditions thereof.”With no named company there is nobody to sue.

What turns a name into something checkable in a public register.
That company owns the brandno — the brand sits elsewhere0.40/2
“No. Payward Oceanic, Ltd (POL) and Breakout Trading Group, LLC are separate and independent companies.”Signing with a company other than the brand’s owner separates who sold to you from who answers to you.
Almost no firm here has a financial regulator, because selling simulated evaluations is not a regulated activity anywhere. Of the 114 firms we scored by hand, 96 sat in the bottom two rungs of backing for this reason. So we do not count it against anyone — it only adds when a firm genuinely has one.
The people behind it are named
The market
Do your orders reach a market, or is all of it a simulation?
What the funded account issimulated, with no route to real capital0/4
“FTs do not own any trading account or position, and hold no beneficial or proprietary interest in POL’s accounts, assets or trades.”The question that separates a firm that earns when you lose from one that earns when you last.
Conditions to reach a real marketNo such thing in this plan.—
“FTs do not own any trading account or position, and hold no beneficial or proprietary interest in POL’s accounts, assets or trades.”Promising a route to a real market without publishing the conditions is promising nothing.
Almost none names a broker or a clearing house either, and that follows from the account being a simulation rather than being a second, separate failing. Charging for both would count one fact twice.
We read the rules of every plan it sells and issued a verdict on each one.
