FundedNext adds Direct, a $50,000 futures account bought without an evaluation

We first saw FundedNext's Direct account on 7 October 2026: a $50,000 futures account that starts as a FundedNext Account, with no Challenge. It was not among the futures programs we recorded from FundedNext's plan configurator on 3 October, and FundedNext states no launch date.

What changed

BeforeNot applicable: a new program
Offer observedDirect, $50,000, could be chosen in FundedNext's plan configurator at a one-time fee of $283.99: a FundedNext Account from the start, with no Challenge and no profit goal.

What this means

Direct adds a route that starts without an evaluation. It still has its own loss limits, consistency rule and payout conditions, set out on its account page, and "no evaluation" describes how the account starts, not unrestricted withdrawals.

This record does not establish that Direct replaced Legacy, which left FundedNext's lineup in the same days, or that any other FundedNext account moves to Direct.
