EOD, 1-Day-Pass-Plan and Flex allow two resets, and Daily Payouts allows two per evaluation; Instant Classic and Instant Lite have no reset.

News trading is unrestricted during the EOD, 1-Day-Pass-Plan and Flex evaluations. On every funded account, and on Daily Payouts in both phases, a 2-minute buffer applies around high-impact releases: no opening, closing or triggering of pending orders within 2 minutes before or after, while a position opened earlier may be held through the event. All positions must be closed before the end of the session on every plan: open positions are flattened automatically at 15:55 CT, and weekend holding is not permitted. Holding-time rules differ by plan: a 2-minute microscalping deduction on EOD, 1-Day-Pass-Plan and Instant accounts, a 1-minute rule at payout on Flex, and a 60-second rule at payout on Daily Payouts. Tick scalping, grid, martingale and HFT strategies are not permitted. Daily Payouts and Instant Lite are manual-trading products, so bots and automated strategies are not permitted there. Contract limits by size are 1, 3 and 6 minis (10, 30 and 60 micros) on the 1-Day-Pass-Plan; 3, 5 and 8 minis on Flex; 5, 9 and 12 minis on EOD; 2, 4, 6 and 8 minis on Daily Payouts; 3, 4, 6 and 8 minis on Instant Classic; and 1, 4 and 7 minis on Instant Lite. A trade is required at least every 7 days on Instant accounts and Daily Payouts. VPS and remote servers are not allowed, and the IP region used at purchase should match the region you trade from.

Payout requests on EOD, 1-Day-Pass-Plan, Flex and Instant Classic are submitted through the dashboard between the 5th and 8th or the 20th and 23rd of each month. A winning day is a day with at least 0.2% of the starting balance in net profit; 7 winning days are required on EOD and Instant Classic and 5 on the 1-Day-Pass-Plan, and Flex uses 5 winning days of $250, $400 and $450 on its three sizes. The default split is 80/20 on EOD, 1-Day-Pass-Plan and Flex with an optional 90/10 add-on that the firm prices at 20% of the challenge fee; Daily Payouts and Instant Lite pay 90/10 from the first payout; Instant Classic pays 100% of the first $10,000 and 90% after. The minimum request is $500 on every plan. Daily Payouts has no windows and no winning-day count: the first request is possible 24 hours after the first funded trade and then one request every 24 hours, with a profit buffer, a cap of $650, $1,000, $1,500 and $2,500 by size, and at least half of each request coming from profit made since the previous payout. The firm states that requests are processed within two business days (48 hours on Daily Payouts) through Rise, with a 3% processing fee, and that a payout delayed beyond two business days earns an extra $500 under its payout guarantee. KYC is required: before funding on the evaluation plans, and at the first payout on Instant Classic and Daily Payouts. A rewards program lets traders earn points that can be redeemed for perks such as free accounts and faster withdrawals.

All fees are one-time, with no monthly subscription and a $0 activation fee on every plan. The fees below are the prices the firm's plan pages state for each size. EOD Challenge: $69 for $50K, $132 for $100K and $185 for $150K. 1-Day-Pass-Plan: $79 for $25K, $109 for $50K and $179 for $100K. Flex Challenge: $109 for $50K, $169 for $100K and $309 for $150K. Daily Payouts: $89 for $25K, $119 for $50K, $189 for $100K and $269 for $150K. Instant Classic: $192 for $25K, $277 for $50K, $489 for $100K and $624 for $150K. Instant Lite: $182 for $25K, $229 for $50K and $369 for $100K. Reset fees on the evaluation plans are $59, $120 and $170 on the EOD Challenge, $69, $99 and $159 on the 1-Day-Pass-Plan, and $79, $109, $179 and $259 on Daily Payouts; Instant Classic and Instant Lite have no reset. The 90/10 split add-on costs 20% of the challenge fee on EOD, 1-Day-Pass-Plan and Flex, and a 3% processing fee applies to payouts. Platform and market data are chosen at checkout and cannot be switched between data providers afterwards. These fees come from the firm's help center and pricing tabs read on 2026-10-12; the total at checkout is what counts.

The EOD Challenge suits a trader who wants the lowest fee and a drawdown that trails only at the end of the day. The 1-Day-Pass-Plan suits a trader who prefers no consistency rule during the evaluation and faster payouts after 5 winning days. Flex suits a trader who wants no daily loss limit in either phase, and Daily Payouts a trader who values a 24-hour payout cycle and works inside a daily loss limit. Instant Classic and Instant Lite suit traders who prefer to start on a funded account without an evaluation. Before buying, compare the drawdown type, the daily loss limit, the consistency rule and the payout windows of the plan you pick, because they differ across the six plans, and check the countries restricted for the platform you select at checkout.
