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.

Full refund of the challenge fee with the first payout

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.

Rise: $50 each month any payout is requested

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.

• By default: Biweekly
• With add-on (+25%): Weekly
• Bolt: Biweekly by default; On-Demand Payouts with add-on (+25%)

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.

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

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.

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.

Normal swaps by default. The FAQ allows requesting a swap-free alternative if available; it is absent from the public checkout add-on catalogue reviewed.

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

Checkout: 95% split for an extra 30% where offered; first payout after 7 days for an extra 35% on 1-Step, Static and Ultra up to 300K. Pay Later has no add-ons. Instant offers them only from 100K, although its terms describe a fixed split. Other add-ons mentioned in the FAQ or terms are absent from the sale catalogue.

• Weekly payout (+25%; not available on Bolt)

• Lightning, Nexus and Dual Step: Traders become eligible after reaching a minimum profit of 10% within three months, equivalent to an average monthly gain of around 3.33%. Each approved phase increases the original demo account balance by 20%, up to $1 million on MetaTrader 5 or $1.5 million on ThinkTrader. Assessments take place every three months and require three payouts during each cycle.
• Bolt: Reach 10% total profit across four payouts within two months. Each approved scaling phase increases the account balance by 25%, up to $500,000.

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.

• Lightning: 6% trailing, locks at initial balance once it grows by 6%
• Bolt: 6% trailing equity, locks at initial balance after the first payout
• Dual Step Intraday: 7% static
• Dual Step Swing: 7% static
• Nexus: 8% static

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.

• Lightning, Nexus, Dual Step Swing, Bolt: 3% Balance-based (Lightning, Nexus, Dual Step Swing) / 3% Equity-based (Bolt, Dual Step Intraday)
• All accounts: Soft breach, account disabled for the day, resumes next day at 00:00 MT5 Server Time

• MetaTrader 5: $300,000
• ThinkTrader: $600,000
• Bolt with scaling: $500,000

No limit on concurrent challenges under one personal profile, subject to the combined funded allocation limit. Checkout limits each purchase to ten units per variant.

No maximum time to pass phases; the inactivity rule still applies.

Unlimited

Evaluation according to checkout: 1-Step, 2 days; Trailing, 2 and 3; Static, 4 and 4; 3-Step, 2 per phase; Ultra, no minimum configured. The terms still state 10 evaluation days for Ultra. Ultra and Instant funded require 10 trading days before the first payout. Static counts days with at least one 0.01-lot trade opened and closed.

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.

• Lightning, Nexus, Dual Step: 3 days minimum (0.5% profit each)
• Bolt: No minimum profitable trading days

• Standard: 80%
• With add-on (+25%): 90%
• Bolt: 90% with scaling

• Bolt: 20% best day cap

The terms permit automation on 1-Step, Trailing, Static and 3-Step, and only during Ultra evaluation; it is prohibited on Ultra funded and Instant. The FAQ requires an EA add-on absent from the reviewed catalogue. The Risk Desk may request files and logic within five business days.

Paid VPN with prior notice to support; restricted-country IPs and identity evasion are prohibited. The FAQ prohibits VPS for manual trading and ties automated VPS use to an EA add-on.

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.

Maximum of 2 positions simultaneously

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.

Sources conflict: the FAQ allows copying own accounts and the general terms prohibit it without written permission. CFD terms allow the same strategy on own accounts only in the same direction with aggregate per-asset risk up to 2%. Instant prohibits correlation across its accounts. Obtain written approval before using a copier.

Traders may use copy trading across multiple Think Capital accounts. That said, copying trades from personal accounts or from accounts with other proprietary firms is not allowed.

If you wish to copy trades between different prop firm accounts, your Think Capital account must be set as the primary (master) account.

Positions may be held, but not opened or closed from 5 minutes before until 5 minutes after high-impact news, including SL, TP and pending orders. Profits may be excluded; losses remain.

• Dual Step (Swing): Allowed by default
• Lightning, Nexus and Dual Step (Intraday): Only allowed with add-on
• Bolt: Not allowed

Rule for products where news trading requires the add-on:

• No trades, including limit and stop orders, may be executed 2 minutes before and 2 minutes after a high-impact news event (total of 4 minutes).
• Any activity during this 4-minute window will result in immediate termination of the funded agreement, account cancellation, and forfeiture of any profits.

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.

30 days

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.

Allowed during evaluation under the terms; prohibited on funded and Instant accounts, including holiday closures. Static funded must close before 21:55 Friday server time, or five minutes before an earlier market close. No funded position may exceed 72 hours.

Lightning, Nexus and Dual Step: allowed. Bolt: requires the Weekend Holding add-on (+15%).

Any form of arbitrage, HFT, latency or price-error exploitation, abusive gap trading, collusion, cross-account hedging, third-party passing or management services, rule manipulation and abnormal position sizing.
