Payout Frequency

The website and checkout add-ons state 21 days for the first withdrawal. The terms then specify 10 calendar days for 1-Step, 2-Step Trailing and 3-Step; 10 business days for Static; 14 calendar days for Ultra and Instant. The latter intervals run from the previous payment. All funded accounts require 15 completed trades per cycle.

On demand. After the first payout: 3 days with at least 0.5% realized net profit since the previous payout. No open positions or pending orders; identity verification required.

Payout Guarantee

Twice the requested amount if an approved request is not sent within two business days. The clock starts once both the request and the payout partner KYC are recorded. Dubai calendar, excluding weekends and UAE public holidays; reviews, disputes and legal holds are excluded. The advertised 45 minutes is an average.

Processed within 24 hours after account review and submission of all requested documents. If missed, 100% split for that payout. Bank and blockchain settlement times are excluded.

Crypto Weekend Trading
Limited

Holding through market closures is allowed during evaluation, but not on funded or Instant accounts.

Yes
Maximum Withdrawal

Profit above the per-cycle cap is forfeited, except on 2-Step Static, where it carries forward. Free, giveaway and prize accounts: eligible profit capped at 1% of initial balance per calendar month under clause 4.7, although the FAQ still states 2% per interval.

Up to 50% of profit per request. Capped at USD 2,500 for accounts up to USD 100,000; USD 5,000 for larger accounts. Remaining profit stays in the account.

Minimum Withdrawal

The terms conflict: the table lists USD 200 for 1-Step, 2-Step Trailing and 3-Step; USD 100 for Static and Ultra; none for Instant. Clause 4.4 states USD 100 generally except Instant, while the FAQ states USD 200. Confirm the plan-specific amount in the dashboard.

Static against the initial balance; includes floating losses and costs. Pay After Pass funded accounts have a 6% limit.

Recalculated at 00:00 UTC from the higher of balance or equity, minus a fixed amount based on initial capital. Flex and Pay After Pass evaluation have no daily limit; funded Pay After Pass applies 3%.

Limited

Do not use more than 50% of available margin. The firm may impose a 1% maximum risk per trading idea after written notification.

Limited

Unrestricted in evaluation. In funded, no opening or closing from 5 minutes before until 5 minutes after high-impact news and FOMC events. The News Trading add-on removes this window. Without it, affected trade profits are removed.

Conflicting sources: the inactivity article states suspension after 60 days without trading; another states 30. The terms also suspend accounts not activated within 30 days. Confirm the applicable period before leaving an account idle.

Yes

Account closure after 30 days without trades, in both evaluation and funded.

Consistency Rule
Limited

Funded checkout: 40% on 1-Step, Trailing, Static and 3-Step; 25% on Ultra and Pay Later; 20% on Instant. It limits the best day contribution to total profit. The FAQ and terms describe some of these rules as discretionary. Static has none during evaluation. Exceeding it defers payout until compliant.

Yes

Checked only at payout: Instant and Pay After Pass, 15%; 1-Step and 2-Step, 30%. Each day counts at its highest net profit reached during the day, even if it closes at a loss. Trading may continue until the ratio is met.
