Account Reset

If you don’t complete a challenge, you can restart it at any time with a 12% discount. You’ll also get a single-use coupon that gives you 10% off any program.

Reset: buy a Reset to continue from the phase where you breached instead of starting over — it issues a new account at that phase (Funded reset gives a new Funded account, no re-evaluation). Available any time, or within 14 days of a breach. Each phase can be reset once. Price is a % of the original Challenge: Phase 1 −7%; Phase 2 +45–50%; Phase 3 +80%; Funded +50–175% (Instant: −7%).
