Bigger split?

Audacity Capital, at 90% against E8 Markets's 80%. Split is the headline; payout cadence and any consistency rule decide when the money is actually yours.

The daily room

Audacity Capital leaves more daily-loss room, 5% against E8 Markets's 3%: more full stops before the daily rule ends your day. Neither survives an undisciplined one.
