FundedFuturesFamily split its own trader base in two, and the dividing line is a single purchase date.

Tighter rules, but only going forward.

FundedFuturesFamily has tightened the funded-stage rules on its Premier+ accounts. For any account purchased from September 9, 2026 onward, a new 40% consistency rule now applies, alongside lower fixed maximum position limits. The changes affect the funded stage only; evaluation-phase rules are unchanged.

Every size got cut, but not by the same amount.

The cut isn't proportional across sizes. The $100K account absorbs the steepest reduction at 40%, nearly double the 20% cut applied to the $50K tier, while the $25K and $150K accounts land in between at 33% each.

A hard line at a single date.

Anyone who purchased a Premier+ account before September 9, 2026 keeps the old terms entirely: no consistency rule, and the original, larger position limits. There's no phase-in or partial application, a trader's terms are locked in based purely on which side of that date their purchase falls.

Two versions of the same product, running side by side.

Grandfathering existing customers into old terms while tightening rules for new buyers is a common way for a firm to manage risk going forward without provoking a backlash from people who already committed capital under the old deal. It also means "Premier+" now describes two functionally different products depending on when the account was bought, something that's easy to miss if a trader is only looking at current marketing material rather than checking their own purchase date against the cutoff.

The uneven size of the cuts is worth a second look too. A 40% reduction on the $100K tier is a materially bigger constraint on trading size than the 20% trim applied to the $50K account, so a trader comparing sizes purely by dollar value could be surprised by how differently the position caps actually scale.
