Funded Account Gains & Payouts
- 80/20 Profit Split: Payouts can be requested after 14 days, with subsequent withdrawals every 14 days (min $50).
- Optional Add-ons: 90/10 Split, Weekend Holding, and Payout Protector.
Optional Add-ons & Payout Protector
- 90/10 Profit Split: Boost your account gains split from 80% to 90%.
- Weekend Holding: Hold swing positions over the weekend.
- Payout Protector: An optional add-on that enables you to still receive a payout on any gains in your account, despite the fact that you breached your account (provided all other conditions for a withdrawal are met and your account is not otherwise in violation of our Terms and Conditions).
How Payout Protector Works: Assume you are trading a $100,000 Funded account and have generated $8,000 in gains at the time you breach your account. Without Payout Protector, the account would be closed and the $8,000 would be forfeited. With Payout Protector, the account would still be closed due to the breach, but you would still receive your portion of the $8,000 gain made in the account.
