Hola Prime Review
Hong Kong
Since Nov 2024
Payouts in 34 minutes
MT4 · MT5 · cTrader · Match-Trader
The fastest verified payouts in the industry, checked by Deloitte rather than self-reported. The catch is upstream: a 2% cap on risk per trade idea that terminates the account on breach, and a margin rule with no published threshold.

Quick overview
- Routes: 1-Step Prime, 2-Step Pro, 2-Step Prime and a Direct instant account, $5,000 to $300,000
- Split: 65% weekly, 80% bi-weekly, 95% monthly. Waiting pays more here
- Drawdown: 3% daily from the previous day's close, 6% maximum static
- Payouts: averaging 33 minutes, with a 2.5% processing fee on every method
- Company: Hola Prime Limited, Cyprus HE 454359, based in Hong Kong, founded late 2024
The only firm we cover with an outside accounting firm attached to its payout numbers, and the Trustpilot score is intact. Our score is 3.9 because the risk rules carry a discretion the firm has not put a number on, and the account can end before a payout is ever requested.
The payout record, and what it does not cover
Deloitte reviewed every withdrawal between 15 October 2025 and 15 March 2026: 98.35% processed inside the one-hour target, an average of 33 minutes 48 seconds, an average payout near $4,500, and no denied payouts. Almost nobody else in this industry submits to that.
- It reviews payout processing, not the business, and is not a statutory audit
- It measures what happens after a payout request, so accounts closed on risk grounds earlier fall outside it
- Trustpilot removed around 1,300 reviews in early 2025 for guideline breaches. The 4.5 from 3,721 is what remains
Somesh Kapuria describes a zero payout denial policy, and says that by the time a trader reaches a payout request their activity has already been aligned with the rules. Both halves fit: denials are rare because enforcement happens at the risk desk, not the withdrawal screen.
Plans, and which split to take
| Plan | Target | Daily loss | Max loss | Min days | $100K fee |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1-Step Prime | 10% | 3% | 6% static | 2 | $499 |
| 2-Step Prime | 8% then 5% | 5% | 10% static | 2 | $409 |
| 2-Step Pro | 8% then 5% | 5% | 10% static | 2 | $619 |
| Direct (instant) | None | 3% | 7% static | None | $1,049 |
- Take monthly if you can wait. 95% against 80% bi-weekly, for seven profitable days instead of three
- 2-Step Prime is the value pick at $409 for $100K, cheaper than the 1-Step with a wider maximum loss
- Never take weekly. 65% is the worst split here and the speed gain is not worth fifteen points
- Every payout carries a 2.5% processing fee, minimum $25 by wire and $5 by crypto, which no headline split includes
- Leverage is low: 50:1 on FX, 10:1 on indices and metals, 2:1 on commodities, 1:1 on crypto
Does your position breach the 2% rule?
Risk on one trade idea cannot exceed 2% of the initial balance, and a breach ends the account. Overlapping same-direction positions count as one idea, as does any re-entry within ten minutes.
Rules that catch people
- A stop loss is mandatory on every trade, and a missing one is a breach in itself
- Disproportionate margin use is prohibited with no published threshold, so the risk desk sets that line case by case
- Daily loss runs from the previous day's closing balance, so the floor moves with you in both directions
- The consistency test applies at payout, not during the challenge. A failed check holds the payout rather than closing the account
- VPN or access from a restricted region terminates the account, and one trader reports being flagged for mobile data
What traders report
The healthiest public numbers of any firm we reviewed this month: 4.5 on Trustpilot across 3,721 reviews with no warning banner, 4.3 on PropFirmMatch, 3.7 on Forex Peace Army.
What holds up across reports
- The payout speed is real, and the most repeated point in positive reviews
- The firm answers roughly 99% of negative reviews, usually within a week, and reverses some disputes
- The pass rate is published: 35% between November 2024 and May 2025, which almost no competitor discloses
What goes wrong, in their words
- Accounts disabled for excessive risk or margin use after profitable runs, against a threshold the terms never state
- Profits deleted over consistency on accounts with few trades, where one good trade dominated the total
- A September 2026 complaint describes a passed $200K challenge flagged as breached over a variable mobile data IP
- The 2% rule is the most disliked rule here, by some margin
FAQ
Is Hola Prime legit?
Yes, on the evidence available. It is the only firm we cover with an outside accounting firm attached to its payout data, the Trustpilot score is intact, and it publishes a pass rate. The fair criticism concerns how risk rules are enforced before payout, not whether payouts happen.
Is Hola Prime regulated?
Not as a prop firm. The Cyprus entity is a registered company and MT5 services run through a Mauritius FSC regulated entity, but the evaluation product sits outside financial regulation, as it does across this industry.
What is the 2% rule?
Risk on one trade idea cannot exceed 2% of your initial balance, with a stop loss required. Overlapping same-direction positions and re-entries inside ten minutes count as one idea, and a breach terminates the account.
Which split should you take?
Monthly at 95% if you can wait seven profitable days, bi-weekly at 80% otherwise. Weekly at 65% costs thirty points for a few days of speed. Factor in the 2.5% processing fee either way.
Who should avoid it?
Anyone who scales into a position, since overlapping entries aggregate toward the 2% cap. Anyone trading without stops. And anyone whose edge comes from a few large wins, because the consistency test will hold those payouts.

Who wrote this, and what we actually did
Trading since 2019 across forex and crypto. Lead on this page, since forex execution and firm communication are his side of the desk.
Trading since 2019, mainly futures. Handled the plan comparison, the split maths and the 2% trade idea rule.
Builds the comparison tools, calculators and firm database behind this review.
- Took the 2% rule, the daily loss basis and the payout conditions from the firm's own rules pages rather than summary sites
- Read the Deloitte engagement reporting in full and recorded its scope and date range rather than only its headline figures
- Checked the Trustpilot profile as it stands today, including the absence of a warning banner
- Cross-checked scores on Trustpilot, PropFirmMatch and Forex Peace Army rather than relying on one
- Read the prohibited practices list and confirmed the margin rule carries no stated threshold
- We have not traded a funded Hola Prime account, so nothing here claims first-hand execution experience
- The Deloitte engagement is a review of payout processing, not a statutory audit, and we have not seen the underlying report
- Sources disagree on the consistency threshold, quoting 20%, 35% and 40% for different plans and payout types
- The firm has not published a margin utilisation threshold, so we record that limit as not published
Risk note. Accounts here are simulated, so your trades mirror live markets but the capital is not the firm's own, though profits can still produce genuine payouts. An evaluation fee is a cost rather than an investment, and most buyers never reach a payout. Hola Prime has the strongest payout evidence of any firm on this site, and it is also less than two years old, with risk rules its own terms leave partly undefined. Verified 25 September 2026, so re-check the rulebook before buying. PropFirmPrime earns commission on some links, which never changes our score.
Compare before you buy
A decade of history, and no cap on risk per trade.
Similar pricing, with no mandatory stop loss rule.
Publishes payout reports monthly and pays during the challenge.
Size positions for the rule, not the drawdown
The 6% maximum loss is generous and the 2% per trade idea cap is not. Plan entries so a scaled position still lands under it, and take the monthly cycle at 95%. Code PRIME at checkout.
