Fee refunded with the third approved payout on the same funded account, except Ultra and Instant. The terms exclude both from refunds. Other models have a 24-hour refund window before trading. The Static Fee Refund add-on appears in the terms but is absent from the reviewed catalogue.

Historically, standard challenges were non-refundable. A newer rule states that evaluation fees purchased after January 9, 2026 are refundable on the 4th payout, while older purchases remain non-refundable.

Up to 3.5% processing fee where disclosed. The FAQ attributes it to methods other than Rise; provider and currency-conversion fees may also apply.

2% payout fee or a $10 minimum transaction fee per payout.

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.

• Base schedule every 14 days.
• Promotional instant requests may apply.

Futures Style

• Instant Funding: payout eligible after 5 days.

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.

• Instant Funding Zero under the new terms announced on August 20, 2026: no payout cap.
• Other funded products: usually capped at 5% of the initial balance per payout cycle, depending on the program.

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.

$100 minimum withdrawal. Lower withdrawals may be processed on request with fees deducted.

• Futures Style 1 Step Pro Evaluation: $250 / $500 / $750 / $1,000 minimum payout on $25K / $50K / $100K / $150K.

No account reset. After a breach, a coupon may be provided to purchase a new challenge.

Only the 1 Step Evaluation documents a free reset, available if the funded account is lost within 10 days. Futures Style Instant Funding and Futures Style 1 Step Pro Evaluation show reset availability; no reset fee is stated publicly. Other listed products do not include a free reset.

Trailing against peak equity; under the terms, it stops rising when the floor reaches 96% of initial balance. Static keeps a fixed floor from activation. Free and prize accounts always use trailing, even when the base model is Static.

• 2 Step and Free Challenge use static maximum drawdown.

Static takes the higher of balance and equity at 00:00 server time and fixes that reference for the day. Other models have a discrepancy: the FAQ uses that daily reference, but the terms describe trailing against peak equity. Instant has no daily limit. Losses include floating P&L, charges and swaps.

Daily drawdown resets at 5 PM EST and is generally recalculated from the higher of balance or equity using the product's initial-balance loss allowance.

FV Points: 1 point per net USD spent, with possible extras for phases, referrals and verified actions. Redeemable for discounts, challenges or merchandise; personal with no cash value. Points expire after 12 months and challenge vouchers after 90 days. Refunds reverse points and profile termination forfeits them; failing a challenge does not.

Terms: Ultra and Instant require 3 days per cycle with at least +0.2% of starting daily equity. Static requires 5 days with at least +0.1%. The FAQ publishes different thresholds. Once eligibility is met, profit from days below the threshold also counts.

EAs are generally prohibited, except on the EA Challenge where they are allowed only during the challenge phase and prohibited once funded.

Allowed within one account, subject to the two-position limit per asset. Prohibited across own accounts, other traders or other firms.

Instant requires a stop-loss on every position within 60 seconds. For risk calculations on other plans, positions without SL are assessed as if stopped at the drawdown floor.

Terms: profits from trades held under 4 minutes are excluded, except on Static. Static has no evaluation minimum; funded profits from trades under 2 minutes are excluded if they exceed 30% of cycle profit. The FAQ states 180 seconds, or 30 with an add-on absent from the sale catalogue.

Maximum two open positions per asset, counting buys and sells and grouping equivalent symbols.

The FAQ prohibits martingale, anti-martingale and grid, allowing only up to two positions on one asset. The terms also prohibit abusive averaging and excessive exposure.

Instant: 1% of initial balance per trade; Ultra funded and Static in all phases: 2%. Entries on the same instrument within 60 seconds are aggregated. The same strategy across accounts is subject to the aggregate cap described in the copying rule.

Obtain written approval before using a copier.

A news trading add-on is available at checkout for Instant Funding Static and 1 Step. Accounts purchased before the change retain their previous news trading permissions.

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.

At least one open trade or pending order is required every 30 days to keep the account active.

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.
