Lark Funding Reviews 

My experience of Larkfunding.
This used to be one of my most preferred prop firms, for a long time, while I got more experience in my trading.
LarkFunding promotes very attractive terms; and they have features that are very competitive in the industry, and that are very "Trader-friendly".
They have very good customer service, and gave prompt responses to questions and concerns...

The issues started when I got payouts.

That's when all the problems started, and just like that, all the "trader-friendliness" disappeared .
I had a payout that took over a month to process. What's more alarming is that during that same time, they were publicly advertising that their payouts only take hours. Messages that were answered promptly before, now took days, and weeks.

Lastly,
A $5000+ payout that was denied.
For what reason? " They say "they "Recommend" not going past 20% of Margin"
1. This Hidden Rule is nowhere to be found in their 40-page trading agreement that we signed.
2. Their agreement specifically says you can use 105%, then trades will be stopped out. Nothing about a breach, and nothing about profits being taken away.

I showed them their contradicting statements and that their agreement doesn't say what they say. Months later..No reply...
We'll see how promptly they respond to this message.

They say the rule is on their website.
So you have to search and find the Hidden Rules on their website, not in the contract agreement. Meanwhile their website Also states 105% , same as their contract.

Contradicting Rules that they use arbitrarily to deny profits.

20% margin is 1:5. While publicly, they advertise a 1:30 Margin.
on an account that I never went above 2% in loss.

In my experience,
Behind all that friendliness were Hidden Rules and Contradicting Statements that are designed to make you fail. with no recourse for your earnings.

You don't want to waste your time, energy and money, going through evaluations and amassing profits, just to be left wondering whether they will pay you or not...be careful.

Go with a reputable firm that's not all talk.
Don't amass profits just to be left wondering whether they will decide to pay or not.

That's my personal, verifiable experience, do your own due diligence.

EDIT
ADDED AFTER Larkfunding's response.
- Boom/Bust? How can one move wipe the account when I risk less than 1% of the account? esp. on a static drawdown?

Since they brought it up:
-Yes, they offered me a $300 Refund, or new account. And I declined.
They took away my profit of $5900, then turned around and offered me $300. That is an example of larkfunding's disingenuous practices.
in addition to what I've already detailed.

No Thanks, you can keep the $300. even if you offered me 10 new accounts.. I have zero interest in spending valuable time trading with a firm that I can't trust.

Great company that has been in the game for quite some time now and love the way Matt is involved in day to day running of the business.

Definately few months to come I see them challenging for top two position in the industry.

My experience with Lark Funding has been nothing short of amazing. The support team is extremely responsive and genuinely cares about traders.

Payouts are fast and hassle-free, which says a lot about how reliable they are. On top of that, there’s a great community of traders who are helpful, encouraging, and easy to connect with.

I’ve had a 5-star experience all around and truly appreciate how smooth and transparent everything has been. If you’re looking for a prop firm that actually delivers on its promises, Lark Funding is it!

Best in the industry their discord support is top notch and ceo also active. And respond the query quickly good environment to trade

With their easy to follow rules, top trading conditions, no payout denial, highly knowledgeable CEO, top quality customer support, LARK FUNDING is a top top prop firm for all types of traders and I highly highly recommend them!

Lark funding is a great prop firm with cool features, they are trader- friendly and the customer service is top notch.

one of the best firm with fast and amazing customer support and best trading consitions only firm which take care about their traders been trading with them for almost more than a month really loving it and will recommend every prop traders to use them

Lark funding is one of the trustable firm in the industry.their customer support is very good with simple rules and fast payment

Lark funding is different from all propfirm. It doesn't have unnecessary restrictive rules when it comes to news,consistency, SL etc. MATT is also a transparent person like the company.
They are amazing and it's the best rn in the market tbh

Lark is one the few reliable prop firms left in a space that is full of firms with hidden rules and consirions to make the trader fail

I think they are trustworthy and they pay out in time and it's a sad that the two-step challenge was discontinued but overall I love them

Customer Service! Instead of a ChatBot, I got the CEO!!! (Who does this?) Instead of a bunch of rules designed to NOT pay you out, I got rules designed to help me as a trader. Without a doubt, this company knows how to enhance the customer experience.
5 Stars.

Just got funded with this company, the rules are clear and fair, and after one week of trading received my first payout. So far can recommend!

Amazing company! They respond really quick and the customer support is amazing. I got passed the challenge, got funded and received my payout without any problems. I would recommend this company!

They rejected my payout because of hidden rules. None of them below are on their website.

When the payout was small (my first payout request was 522 and it was successful), it was approved despite my floating loss was around 4.3%.

But when the payout was big (around 8.7k), they started giving a lot bullshit rules. With the same condition as the first payout, but it was rejected now for the 2nd payout request.

Here is their message

"our payout request on account 688459 has been declined due to violations of our All-or-Nothing trading rule and Prohibited Trading Practices.

Our review found:

61.2% margin utilization, well above our recommended threshold of 20%.

Trade ID 274543602 exceeded our maximum loss limit of 1.5%.

Account swings of up to 4% within a few hours, indicating excessive position sizing and risk exposure.

This trading behaviour aligns with what we define as YOLO-style trading, which falls outside the parameters of responsible risk management required for our program.

As a courtesy, we have refunded order 28772.
It’s also worth noting that your previous payout of $522.90 on account 673898 was processed as a goodwill exception, despite that account also breaching our rules with losses reaching 4.3%.

We appreciate the time and effort you’ve put into trading with us, but given the repeated violations of our risk parameters, we will be closing your account and will not be able to continue this partnership moving forward."

Great prop firm with good and clear rules.

This is a one of the very few propfirms that still make proptrading fun. Glad to have them in the industry.

I think in the prop space lark funding are the realest no noise just actions and new updates most importantly payouts. One of the best highly recommended.

Very wonderful prop firm with a vision of not only growing its equity, but presenting traders with a more fair playground to exercise their trading skills.

Great firm most especially the instant but the pricing for me is some how high in my view
