- 1 Step Nano: up to weekly
- 2 Step Nano: bi-weekly
- Other products: 14 days
Turbo: first payout after 14 calendar days of funded trading, then every 14 days. Sprint: first payout as soon as funded, then every 14 days. Junior, Senior and Executive: every 14 days from the start of funded trading.
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).
$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.
$25 on wire transfer and Revolut. Crypto and debit card vary by provider.
