Payout requests are processed within 24 to 48 hours.
Before the split. One Step 25K/50K/100K/150K: $1,000/$2,000/$2,500/$3,000 on the first payout and $1,500/$2,500/$3,000/$3,500 after. Instant: $1,000/$2,000/$3,000/$4,000 on every payout. The rest rolls into the next one.

$500 before the split. Crypto payouts: at least $100.
$500 before the 90% reward split.
Every position closed. Funded One Step: balance above the buffer plus 1% of the starting balance, 3 profitable days (+0.25%) and the 40% rule. Instant: a profit milestone before each payout ($1,450, $3,000, $5,000 or $8,000 on 25K, 50K, 100K or 150K), 5 profitable days and the 20% rule.
All positions must be closed and KYC and compliance checks must be complete before requesting a payout.
One Step: after an evaluation breach, a restart within 14 days at the same price. Funded One Step: a reset within 14 days, at most twice and before the first payout. Instant: no reset; a new account at a reduced price is offered for 3 days.
- 1-Step evaluation: a discounted reset can be purchased within 14 calendar days of a breach.
- 1-Step Funded: up to 2 resets before the first payout, within 14 days of the breach; each costs 5 times the evaluation fee.
- Instant: no standard reset; the same size can be repurchased at a reduced price within 3 calendar days of a breach.
One Step: end-of-day trailing, rising with the closing balance. Instant: intraday trailing on peak equity, open profit included. Both lock once they reach the starting balance. Touching it ends the account.
- 1-Step: EOD trailing, based on the highest end-of-day balance; it locks at the initial balance once the Profit Buffer is reached.
- Instant: intraday trailing, following the highest balance or open equity.
- Reaching the maximum drawdown is a hard breach.
90% on both plans.
Soft limit: reaching it closes positions and stops trading until the next session; the account stays open. One Step 25K has none.
Calculated from the end-of-day balance. A breach is soft: positions are closed and trading stops for that day; the account is not failed. The new daily limit on 25K 1-Step evaluations applies only to new purchases; existing accounts retain their original rules.
$1.5M per person across all CFD and futures accounts.
Funded One Step: a buffer equal to the max loss that stays on the account and is never paid out. Instant has none.

Each payout also requires new profit equal to 1% of the initial balance above the buffer. Instant accounts use a recurring payout milestone instead: $1,450, $3,000, $5,000 and $8,000 respectively.
One user per person, with as many accounts as the $1.5M limit allows. Up to 5 accounts per order, with a 10% to 25% bundle discount.
