Entry price
The upfront cost varies significantly depending on the evaluation path chosen. Breakout focuses on a more traditional pricing structure for its classic accounts, whereas Mubite uses a two-part payment system for its most aggressive entry plan.
- $100,000 account: Breakout Classic costs $800, while Mubite One-Step Pro costs $819.
- $50,000 account: Breakout Classic costs $400, compared to $519 for Mubite One-Step Pro.
- Smallest entry: Breakout offers a $5,000 Turbo account for just $20. Mubite offers a $5,000 One-Step Lite for $49, or the Nitro path where you pay $19.9 initially but must pay an activation fee after passing.
- Add-ons: Breakout allows buying a permanent 90/10 profit split at the start (e.g., $960 for a $100,000 account). Mubite offers various add-ons, such as increasing the split to 90% for a +25% fee on the base price.
What you pay while trading
Operating costs are embedded in every trade through commissions and holding fees. Breakout operates its own engine with external liquidity, while Mubite uses ByBit and Cleo execution.
- Commissions: Breakout charges 0.04% on crypto and 0.02% on indices and commodities. Mubite commissions range between 0.02% and 0.05% depending on the asset and platform.
- Holding costs: Breakout charges a daily swap of 0.033% of the notional value. Mubite allows holding through weekends and overnight, with costs dictated by ByBit’s underlying market rates.
- Asset availability: Breakout includes crypto, indices, and commodities. Mubite is strictly focused on crypto, which limits the diversification potential for the same entry fee.
What mistakes cost you
The "cost of failure" is defined by how the drawdown is measured. A stricter drawdown makes the account "smaller" in practice than its nominal value.
- Drawdown type: Breakout uses a static drawdown from the starting balance. This is the most trader-friendly model because profits increase your safety cushion.
- Smart Drawdown: Mubite uses "Smart Drawdown" on its Instant accounts (8% to 10%). This drawdown follows your balance until it locks at a certain level, meaning you can lose the account even if you are in profit if you suffer a retracement.
- Risk rules: Mubite has a strict realized loss limit of 3% per trade. Violating this is an expensive mistake as it can lead to account issues. Breakout does not have a per-trade risk cap, only total and daily limits.
- Resets: If you fail, Mubite may offer a paid reset to restart the evaluation. Breakout has no resets; a breach requires buying a completely new evaluation at full price.
What it costs to get paid
Getting your money out is where the two firms diverge most in terms of liquidity for the trader.
- Profit caps: Mubite imposes a heavy cost on early success. Payouts 1 through 6 are capped between 2.5% and 5% of the starting balance. On a $100,000 account, your first check cannot exceed $2,500, even if you made $10,000. Breakout has no profit caps; you can withdraw your full share from day one.
- Frequency: Breakout allows on-demand payouts 24/7. Mubite requires waiting 14 days between most payouts.
- Consistency rules: Mubite has a consistency rule where no single day can account for more than a certain percentage of total profit (e.g., 30% on One-Step Pro). Exceeding this doesn't lose the account but delays your payout, creating an opportunity cost. Breakout has no consistency rules.
Where each one hides its cost
- Breakout: The main hidden cost is the lack of a refund. Most firms refund the entry fee with the first payout; Breakout does not. Also, the 0.033% daily swap can become expensive for swing traders holding positions for weeks.
- Mubite: The costs are hidden in the Smart Drawdown and consistency rules. These rules are designed to keep the capital within the firm for longer. The Nitro plan also hides a "second price" (the activation fee) that you only discover after you have put in the work to pass the evaluation.
Cheapest for whom
Breakout is the cheapest for high-performance traders and swing traders who want to withdraw large profits immediately without being throttled by caps or consistency rules. The static drawdown provides a much larger effective trading room as the account grows.
Mubite is the cheapest for beginners or those with very little capital who want to use the Nitro model to start for under $20, provided they are comfortable with a slower, more regulated withdrawal path and the specific risk management rules of ByBit.
Frequently asked questions
Which firm is cheaper for a $100,000 account, Breakout or Mubite?
Breakout is cheaper for a standard $100,000 evaluation, costing $800 for its Classic 1-Step, while Mubite charges $819 for its One-Step Pro. Additionally, Breakout is economically more efficient because it has no profit caps on withdrawals, whereas Mubite limits your first payout to only 2.5% of the account size ($2,500), regardless of how much profit you actually generated.
Does Breakout or Mubite have a more expensive drawdown for the trader?
Mubite has a more "expensive" drawdown due to its Smart Drawdown logic on Instant accounts, which trails your profit and reduces your breathing room as you win. In contrast, Breakout uses a static drawdown of 6% (Classic) or 5% (Pro) from the initial balance. This means that in Breakout, every dollar of profit increases your safety buffer, while in Mubite, a retracement after a gain is more likely to trigger an account closure.
Which firm allows for faster and cheaper withdrawals, Breakout or Mubite?
Breakout is significantly faster and cheaper in terms of liquidity, offering on-demand payouts 24/7 from the first day with no maximum withdrawal limit. Mubite has a higher time cost, requiring a 14-day wait between payouts and imposing strict profit caps on the first six withdrawals, which prevents traders from accessing their full earnings for several months.
Which firm is better for using automated strategies, Breakout or Mubite?
Mubite is more flexible for bot users as it allows self-developed EAs if you can prove ownership, though it is limited to the ByBit ecosystem. Breakout is more restrictive and essentially a "manual-first" firm, as it only allows trading through its proprietary terminal and strictly prohibits any third-party or "off-the-shelf" bots, making it a more expensive choice for those who do not trade manually.
