Full refund after 4th payout
Fees are non-refundable once the account is created and access is granted. If payment is taken but no account is delivered, Fundex reviews the case individually.
$35 flat fee via Rise (for payouts of $1,000 or more). Payouts below $1,000 are paid in crypto and only carry the network fee.

- Instant Pro: First Payout on Demand is available as a checkout add-on.

- Instant Standard, Instant Pro, Instant Flex, 1 Step Standard, 1 Step Pro, 2 Step Pro, Aqua Man: Trailing, based on the highest value between equity and balance
- TryAqua: Daily and maximum drawdowns are trailing
- 1 Step Flex, 2 Step Elite, 3 Step: Static
- 2-Step Classic: Evaluation uses a 10% static maximum drawdown from the starting balance, measured on equity and reset when Phase 2 begins. Once funded, a 10% drop from the original balance while in B-Book causes a permanent breach.
- 2-Step Pro: 8% static maximum drawdown.
- 1-Step Classic: Static evaluation drawdown based on starting balance and measured on equity, including open positions.
90%. 100% with add-on (+15%)
2-Step Classic starts at a 70% trader profit split. 2-Step Pro starts at 80%. The split applies to eligible A-Book profits generated above the starting balance and after clearing any prior B-Book offset; on 2-Step Pro it is calculated when the payout is requested. Fundex's legal terms state that payments are discretionary bonuses rather than a fixed contractual split.
1-Step Classic: the trader profit split is shown in each challenge and is calculated when the payout is requested.
A free $1,000 Test Account is available to eligible traders who do not currently hold a Fundex account. It uses Fundex Terminal only, with a 10% target, 5% daily drawdown, 10% maximum drawdown and 5 minimum trading days. Profits cannot be withdrawn and completion rewards may vary.
Based on highest value between equity and balance
Evaluation: the daily loss limit is recalculated at 00:00 UTC from the balance at that time and measured on equity, including open positions. The applicable percentage is shown in each challenge. There is no daily loss limit at the funded stage.
Instant accounts can't be merged
Funded accounts can be merged provided their combined balance does not exceed the $400,000 maximum allocation.
No limit
No maximum time limit.

- 2-Step Pro: No minimum trading days.
- 1-Step Classic: 5 evaluation trading days. A day counts only if at least one trade has a notional size of at least 5% of the account balance before leverage.
Evaluation: reaching the daily or total loss threshold causes a breach. Funded: permanent breach follows four consecutive unrecovered B-Book switches, or a 10% decline from the original balance while the account is in B-Book.
Multiple evaluations and accounts are allowed. Total funded allocation is capped at $400,000.
EAs and automated systems are allowed when the underlying strategy is the trader's own. Arbitrage, HFT, martingale, grid, environment-exploitation and external trade-replication systems are prohibited.
Hedging or arbitraging across Fundex accounts, or between Fundex and external accounts, is prohibited. The website does not clarify internal hedging within one account.
- 2-Step Classic: During evaluation, every trade must remain open for at least 3 minutes, including when TP or SL is triggered. The first violation generates a warning and later violations may cause a breach. There is no minimum holding time once funded.
- 2-Step Pro: No minimum holding time during evaluation or once funded.
- 1-Step Classic: Every evaluation trade must remain open for at least 3 minutes, including TP/SL closures. The first violation generates a warning; repeated violations cause a breach. No minimum holding time once funded.
If your floating PnL (profit and loss) drops below -2% of the account balance, the account will be permanently closed.
Only applies to Instant Funding Standard, Pro, Flex, AquaMan and TryAqua.
During both evaluation phases, a single trade cannot lose more than 3% of the balance, including floating losses. The first violation generates a warning. This limit does not apply once funded.
1-Step Classic: Position exposure is measured as notional value relative to equity. Per position, up to 25% is compliant, over 25% through 40% generates a warning, and above 40% is a violation subject to review. Total simultaneous exposure during evaluation: up to 50% is compliant, over 50% through 80% generates a warning, and above 80% is a violation. Once funded, total exposure above 60% is a violation.
