The5ers payout track record
Payout score 6.0/10
For most of its first decade The5ers had one of the cleaner payout records among CFD prop firms, and many September 2026 Trustpilot reviews still describe withdrawals arriving within hours to three days. That record took two hits in 2026. On March 31 the firm admitted on X that some payments were taking longer than expected, and a support reply quoted on Reddit cited an extra 5-7 business days because of volume. From August the bigger problem was denials: about 200 one-star reviews in eight weeks, roughly 38% of them describing accounts closed at payout stage for coordinated trading with an unnamed trader, one-sided bets, bulk trading or a failed ownership interview. The terms updated on September 23, 2026 also let the firm split large payouts into weekly installments of up to $10,000 and cancel pending payouts if a requested video interview is not completed within five business days.
Why it scored 6.0: A decade of payouts and many same-day withdrawals, but the firm admitted delays in March 2026 and an August-September 2026 wave of payout-stage denials puts it in the recurring-complaints band.

The5ers payout FAQ
Questions traders ask
Does The5ers actually pay out?
Yes. The firm claims more than 20,000 payouts, and many September 2026 Trustpilot reviews report withdrawals within hours to three days. Every payout passes a risk review, though, and about 38% of recent one- and two-star reviews describe profits refused after that review, so read the prohibited-practices page before you trade.
How long do The5ers payouts take?
You can request the first payout 14 days after funding and then every 14 days. The firm quotes a 24-48 hour risk review plus up to three business days and advertises a 16-hour average; in spring 2026 traders reported waits of one to two weeks, and the firm acknowledged delays on March 31, 2026.
