The Dubai-based prop firm has paid more than $10.6 million to traders since its 2024 launch, and has approved every payout request since moving to its own risk technology in early August 2026.
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates, [date]. TigerFunded (Tiger Funded), the Dubai-based proprietary trading firm launched in October 2024, today announced that it has approved 100% of payout requests since moving its traders to a trading and risk platform built entirely in-house in early August 2026. Since its launch, the firm has paid more than $10.6 million to traders, and it currently pays out an average of around $305,000 every month.
For a prop firm, the payout is the moment of truth. It is where a trader finds out whether the rules they followed for weeks will be honored. Two years in, Tiger Funded’s answer is a platform designed so that a trader who reaches a payout gets paid.
Why Tiger Funded built its own trading platform
Like most prop firms, Tiger Funded started on third-party technology. The team tested the dashboard providers used by the biggest names in the industry, and none of them gave traders the visibility the firm wanted. So Tiger Funded built its own, with an investment of around $1 million.
How Tiger Funded payouts work today
The platform is built around one goal: helping traders become profitable and consistent. Every funded trader sees, in real time, where they stand on each rule and on their own performance. Clear indicators show whether an account is in the green, in a caution zone or in the red. A trader can adjust a position or a strategy before a limit is reached, not after.
What changed since Tiger Funded’s early reviews
Tiger Funded does not hide that its first months were demanding. Launching in one of the busiest periods the prop trading industry has known, the firm received criticism from some traders about payout timelines and about how rule decisions were explained. Some of those reviews are still online today.
“We read every one of those reviews, and they shaped what we built,” said Jawad D., Head of Risk Management at Tiger Funded. “Most payout disputes in this industry come from a trader breaking a rule without realizing it. We decided the answer was not a longer rulebook. It was giving traders the information they need to never get there.”
Q&A with Jawad D., Tiger Funded’s Head of Risk Management
Tiger Funded now reports a 100% payout approval rate. How is that possible?
It starts long before the payout request. Our platform shows traders, live, where they stand on every rule, with indicators that warn them before there is a problem. Traders correct as they go. So when a payout request reaches us, the account is clean and we approve it. Since early August, that has been every single request.
Isn’t approving every payout a risk for the firm?
Our risk management is stronger today than it has ever been, precisely because it works in real time instead of after the fact. Good risk management and paying traders are not opposites. When traders understand the rules and see their numbers clearly, they trade better, and that is good for everyone.
Why build your own platform instead of using an existing one?
We used the dashboard providers that the largest prop firms rely on. They were built for the firm, not for the trader. Tiger Funded was founded by traders, and we wanted a platform designed from the trader’s side of the screen. We invested around $1 million to build it, and today it is the most complete platform on the market, for us and for our traders.
What would you say to a trader who had a difficult experience in Tiger Funded’s early days?
That the firm they knew at launch is not the firm we are today. Look at the numbers, look at what we pay every month, and judge us on what we do now.
What comes next?
Keeping that 100% rate, and showing it. Anyone can follow what we pay on our public Tiger Funded payouts page.
