• 1 Step Nano: up to weekly

1-Phase and 2-Phase: after at least 15 traded days or every 30 calendar days; the Weekly Payout add-on reduces this to 7 traded days. Break: on demand with no minimum traded days after passing, paying the activation fee and meeting the 40% consistency rule. Instant: Withdrawal & Upgrade at 10% profit with no minimum days; earlier withdrawals follow the standard conditions.

Payouts processed within 24 business hours (Mon 9 AM – Fri 5 PM Dubai time). If they miss this window you automatically receive a 100% profit split on that payout (no Blue Guardian cut). Delays caused by compliance checks, risk reviews or pending KYC do not qualify.

2 Step Nano: 2% of the initial balance per payout ($500 on $25K, $1,000 on $50K, $2,000 on $100K and $4,000 on $200K).

$5,000 per transaction (crypto)

$100 in crypto, $500 via Rise (bank transfer). On 1 Step Standard and Instant accounts, once you reach 6% profit and the trailing drawdown locks at breakeven, a 1% buffer must remain in the account.

5% processing fee on crypto payouts. Only TRC20 USDT supported.
