AWESOME, SO USER INTUITIVE AND HELPFUL
Matt
Had a really great experience with Tim from support. I’d faced issues following the ProjectX outage amongst some other things and Tim worked tirelessly on my ticket over the course of a few days. Everything was rectified to the fairest of standard and support kept me fully informed and in the loop the entire time. They’ve always been fair and helpful when I’ve needed them especially Tim. Dante also was super helpful in discord.
All in all the firm is great, good pricing, great customer service and 0 bs, they paid me out within 4 hours or less each time they paid me, will be sure to use them again when I next take a challenge.
Shouts again to Tim, he really made a difference in my case.

Each evaluation can be reset up to 10 times within a 30-day period
-
You can hold up to 5 funded accounts simultaneously
Making Your Choice After Passing
Once you successfully pass your evaluation, you’ll be prompted to choose between two distinct payout policies for your funded account. This decision is permanent for that account and determines how you’ll access your profits.
Select Flex (5-Day Payout Policy)
The 5-Day Payout Policy is designed for traders who prefer accumulating larger profit milestones before requesting withdrawals:
-
Payout Frequency: Every 5 winning days
-
Payout Caps: Up to 50% of profits ($3,000 / $4,000 / $5,000 caps)
-
Daily Loss Limit: None
-
Drawdown: End of Day only
-
Best For: Traders who want maximum intraday flexibility and larger, less frequent withdrawals
Select Daily Payout Policy
The Daily Payout Policy is designed for traders who value rapid access to profits with daily withdrawal eligibility:
-
Payout Frequency: Daily eligibility after meeting buffer requirement
-
Payout Caps: Smaller, more frequent ($1,000 / $1,500 / $2,500 caps)
-
Daily Loss Limit: Yes ($1,000 / $1,250 / $1,750)
-
Buffer System: Required ($2,100 / $2,600 / $3,600)
-
Best For: Traders who want consistent daily cash flow and structured risk management
Important Considerations
-
Your choice is permanent – Once selected, you cannot change payout policies for that account
-
Both lead to live trading – Either policy provides a path to Tradeify Elite Live accounts
-
No minimum balance required – Request payouts after 5 winning days regardless of account balance
-
Drawdown locks at $0 – After your first payout is approved, your maximum trailing drawdown locks at zero
Take time to review both options carefully. For detailed information about each payout policy, withdrawal rules, and examples, please review:
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I switch between payout policies after I choose? No, once you select your payout policy, that choice is permanent for that funded account. If you want to try the other policy, you would need to pass another Challenge and select the alternative option.
Do I need to pass the Challenge again if I fail my funded account? Yes, funded accounts that breach must start over with a new Challenge purchase.
Can I have some accounts on 5-Day and others on Daily payout? Yes, if you pass multiple select challenges, you can choose different payout policies for each funded account, up to your maximum of 5 funded accounts total.
Does the consistency rule apply to funded accounts? No, the 40% consistency requirement only applies during the challenges phase. Once funded, consistency rules are removed regardless of which payout policy you choose.

Lightning Funded Accounts
Skip the evaluation process and start earning immediately with Straight to Sim Funded accounts.
A “Lightning Funded” account allows traders to skip the typical challenge phases and begin trading simulated funds immediately. This gives Tradeify traders direct access to a simulated funded account with the potential to start earning profits towards their payout from day one.
Tradeify offers Lightning Funded account sizes of $25k, $50k, $100k & $150k. The rules for the Lightning Funded are stated in the table below:

For complete profit targets to achieve payouts on these accounts see here.
Lightning Funded Accounts use an End of Day Trailing Max Drawdown, which is calculated and based on the account balance at the end of the trading day.
For more information on this type of drawdown, see our full article here.
This offers more flexibility during the trading day. Intraday fluctuations won’t affect the drawdown level, allowing you to hold positions with less risk of hitting the drawdown limit due to temporary losses.
For these accounts, we’ve implemented a progressive Consistency Rule that starts at 20% for your first payout and gradually increases to ensure sustained performance. This graduated approach helps us identify traders committed to long-term success and continuous improvement, rather than those relying on short-term, high-risk strategies. As you advance through multiple payouts, the increasing consistency requirements demonstrate your ability to maintain steady and reliable performance over time.
By maintaining consistent trading habits, traders can better manage risk and achieve sustainable growth—aligning with our goal of fostering a stable and profitable trading environment
To calculate it, we take the drawdown percentage from your starting balance.
Example:
If your starting balance is $100,000 with a 6% Max Drawdown, your limit is $94,000. Dropping below that would violate the rule.
Even if your closed balance increases — for instance, to $102,000 — your Max Drawdown remains $94,000.
No matter how high your balance grows, your drawdown limit never changes.
HOW DO YOU CALCULATE THE MAXIMUM TRAILING DRAWDOWN?
The Maximum Trailing Drawdown is determined by first calculating the drawdown amount — this is the drawdown percentage taken from your starting balance.
We then subtract that amount from your end-of-day High-Water Mark (HWM) to find your drawdown limit.
Example:
On a $100,000 account with a 6% drawdown, the drawdown amount is $6,000.
If you end the trading day with a HWM of $102,000, your new drawdown limit becomes $96,000 ($102,000 – $6,000).
If your equity ever falls below $96,000, your account will be breached.
HOW DO YOU CALCULATE THE DAILY DRAWDOWN?
The Daily Loss Limit is the maximum amount your account can lose in a single day. It is based on your previous day’s end-of-day balance, which resets at 5 PM EST.
The limit compounds as your account grows — meaning it increases when your balance increases.
Example:
If your end-of-day balance yesterday (5 PM EST) was $100,000, with a daily drawdown of 5%, your Daily Loss Limit would be $95,000.
This means your equity cannot fall below $95,000 at any time during the trading day.
Even if you start the next day with $105,000 in equity, your loss limit for that day still uses the previous day’s $100,000 balance — so your limit remains $95,000 until the next reset.
WHAT IS THE CONSISTENCY RULE AND IS IT REQUIRED TO PASS THE CHALLENGE?
The Consistency Rule at WarBux applies to all accounts, including both evaluation and funded accounts.
It measures your ability to generate steady, consistent profits rather than relying on one outsized winning day.
On funded accounts, users will be ineligible for a payout until consistency is met.
To meet the rule, your most profitable day must not exceed 33% of your total profits.
If a single day’s profit is greater than 33% of your total profits — even after reaching the profit target — you must continue trading until that percentage falls below 33%.
Calculation
Best Profitable Day ÷ Total Profits × 100 = Best Day % of Total Profit
Example 1
On a $100,000 account with a 10% profit target ($10,000):
- Day 1: +$8,000
- Day 2: +$2,000
Calculation:
8,000 ÷ 10,000 × 100 = 80%
Since 80% exceeds the 33% limit, the trader must continue trading.
If on Day 3 they earn another $5,000, their total profit is $15,000.
8,000 ÷ 15,000 × 100 = 53.3% — still above 33%, so trading must continue.
Example 2 (Consistent Performance)
On a $100,000 account with a 10% profit target ($10,000), the trader trades for 4 days, earning $2,500 each day.
Calculation:
2,500 ÷ 10,000 × 100 = 25%
Because the best day’s profit is below 33%, the trader meets both the profit target and the consistency requirement.
WHAT ARE THE RULES FOR EACH LEVEL?
1-Step Challenge
- Profit Target: 10%
Daily Drawdown: 4% - Maximum Drawdown: 6% (Static)
- Consistency Requirement: < 33%
- Funded Account: Same rules apply, but no profit target and an 80% profit split
2-Step Challenge
- Profit Target: Phase 1 – 5%, Phase 2 – 10%
- Daily Drawdown: 5%
- Maximum Drawdown: 8% (Trailing)
- Consistency Requirement: < 33%
- Funded Account: Same rules apply, but no profit target and an 80% profit split
Instant Funded Account
- Daily Drawdown: None
- Maximum Drawdown: 8% (Static)
- Consistency Requirement: < 33%
- Profit Split: 80%

The Growth Challenge uses an End of Day Trailing Max Drawdown, which is calculated and based on the account balance at the end of the trading day.
For more information on this type of drawdown, see our full article here.
The Growth Challenge accounts offers more flexibility during the trading day, as intraday fluctuations won’t affect the drawdown level. This allows you to hold positions with less risk of hitting the drawdown limit due to temporary losses.
There is no activation fee for Growth Simulated Funded accounts, and the Simulated Funded counterpart cannot be reset.
Important Notes about the Subscription:
-
The Growth Challenge account is a monthly recurring subscription.
-
The user is solely responsible for managing the subscription. If the user wants to cancel a subscription, they must do so before the renewal date.
-
Subscriptions are rebilled every 30 days until a user manually cancels the account. This means your account subscription will be rebilled until you cancel or pass the Challenge, regardless of the status of your account (active or failed).
-
The Challenge account balance will NOT reset upon subscription renewal unless the account has failed. If the account is in a failed state when the subscription renews, the balance will reset to the original starting amount.
-
Billing occurs on a 30-day cycle (dates may vary from 2 days after to 3 days before the date of the previous billing cycle).
-
The account subscription rebill stops once a user passes the Challenge and activates the Sim Funded account.
Subscription Cancellation Process:
When you cancel your subscription, it will not be terminated immediately. Instead, your subscription will enter a “Pending Cancellation” status.
What this means:
-
Your subscription remains active until your next renewal date
-
You retain full access to all features during this period
-
You can resume your subscription at any time before the renewal date
-
The subscription will only be fully cancelled when your next billing cycle arrives
To Resume a Pending Cancellation:
If you change your mind, you can easily reactivate your subscription through your account settings before the renewal date passes.
Full Cancellation:
Your subscription will be completely cancelled and access will end on your next scheduled renewal date if no action is taken to resume it.
Passing the Challenge / Activations
-
There is no time activation fee.
-
If you pass a Challenge, you’ll receive an email notification once dashboard reconciliation occurs, typically between 6-8 PM Eastern Time.
-
The account subscription must be active and valid in order to “pass” a Challenge. A user cannot activate the Sim Funded account if the subscription is cancelled or pending cancellation.
Reset Credits
-
Using a Reset Credit does not affect the subscription renewal date, and billing will continue every 30 days from the original subscription date.

Select Flex and Select Daily Payout Policies
After successfully passing your Tradeify Select challenge, you’ll need to choose between two distinct payout policies for your funded account. This decision is permanent for that account and determines your withdrawal eligibility, payout frequency, and drawdown structure.
This article explains both payout options in detail to help you make an informed choice based on your trading style and goals.
Overview: The Two Options
Think of this choice as selecting your trading path:
-
5-Day Payout Policy (Flex) – Traditional milestone-based payouts with larger caps and no Daily Loss Limit
-
Daily Payout Policy (Daily) – Rapid-access payouts with daily eligibility but tighter risk parameters
Both policies lead to live trading eligibility at the same thresholds, and both use the same contract scaling structure. The primary differences are in payout frequency, withdrawal caps, and risk management requirements.
Select Flex (5-Day Payout Policy)
The ‘Select Flex’ Payout Policy is designed for traders who prefer accumulating larger profit milestones before requesting withdrawals. This policy offers the most trading flexibility with no Daily Loss Limit and wider drawdown parameters.

Payout Structure
Profit Split: 90 Trader /10 Tradeify
Payout Frequency: Every 5 winning days
Winning Day Threshold:
-
50K Account: $150 minimum profit per day
-
100K Account: $200 minimum profit per day
-
150K Account: $250 minimum profit per day
Payout Caps:
-
50K Account: Up to 50% of balance with a cap of $3,000 per payout
-
100K Account: Up to 50% of balance with a cap of $4,000 per payout
-
150K Account: Up to 50% of balance with a cap of $5,000 per payout
No Minimum Balance Requirement
Unlike other Tradeify programs, Select Flex has no minimum account balance requirement for payouts. You can request a payout immediately after achieving 5 winning days, regardless of your account balance.
First Payout Example (50K Account):
-
You achieve 5 winning days with a balance of $51,500
-
You’re eligible to withdraw 50% of your balance ($750)
-
You request and receive a $750 payout
-
Your balance after payout: $50,750
-
Your Max Trailing Drawdown now locks at $0
Once your first payout is approved, your maximum trailing drawdown permanently locks at zero. This means your account cannot fail from drawdown violations after your first payout – you simply need to maintain a positive balance.
Subsequent Payouts (2nd Payout and Beyond)
For all payouts after your first, you must have positive net profit during each payout cycle in order to request a payout. This simply ensures traders have made at least some amount of money between requests. As long as you meet the Trading Days with Profit requirement and have positive net profit for the payout cycle, you are eligible for payout.
How Select Flex Works
-
Trade until you achieve 5 winning days (days where you profit at least the minimum threshold)
-
Request a payout of up to 50% of your profits, not exceeding the payout cap
-
After receiving your payout, continue trading to build another 5 winning days
-
Repeat the process until you reach live trading eligibility
Best For
The 5-Day Payout Policy works well for traders who:
-
Prefer larger withdrawal amounts less frequently
-
Want maximum intraday flexibility without Daily Loss Limits
-
Are comfortable with wider drawdown parameters
-
Build profits steadily over several trading sessions
-
Focus on consistency across multiple days
Select Daily Payout Policy
The ‘Select Daily’ Payout Policy is designed for traders who value rapid access to profits and prefer more frequent, smaller withdrawals. This policy includes tighter risk management with a Daily Loss Limit and operates with a buffer system.

Buffer System
The Daily Payout Policy uses a buffer amount that must be exceeded before you can request payouts:
-
50K Account: $2,100 buffer
-
100K Account: $2,600 buffer
-
150K Account: $3,600 buffer
You cannot withdraw profits that would bring your account balance below the buffer amount. Profits above the buffer are eligible for withdrawal, up to the payout cap.
Payout Structure
Payout Frequency: Daily eligibility
Profit Split: 90% trader / 10% firm
Payout Caps
To be eligible for a payout on any day:
-
The trader must have profit greater than $0 since their last payout, and
-
They may request up to 2× the profit earned above the buffer, capped at:
-
$1,000 for a 50K account
-
$1,500 for a 100K account
-
$2,500 for a 150K account
-
This cap resets after each payout cycle.
Minimum payout: $250
Example
A trader with a 50K account has a balance of $53,500 and earned $250 in profit since their last payout.
-
Profit > $0 → eligible for payout
-
2 × $250 = $500
-
The trader is able to request a payout of up to $500 as the trader is more than $500 above the buffer.
-
After payout approved the balance is set to $53,000
If instead the trader had earned $700:
-
2 × $700 = $1,400
-
But the cap for a 50K account is $1,000
-
So the trader could request up to $1,000 as the trader is more than $1,000 above the buffer.
-
After payout approved the balance is set to $52,500
After the payout is completed, profit resets to zero and the next cycle begins.
How Daily Payouts Work
-
Trade until your account balance exceeds the buffer requirement
-
At the end of the session and once your dashboard updates, you will be able to request a payout of your profits above the buffer, up to the payout cap (ensure you meet the Daily Continuity Rule if 2nd payout+).
-
Receive your payout within 24-48 hours.
-
Continue trading to build additional profits above the buffer
-
Request payouts once eligible again
Best For
The Daily Payout Policy works well for traders who:
-
Value frequent access to profits
-
Trade consistently on a daily basis
-
Prefer structured risk management with Daily Loss Limits
-
Are comfortable with tighter drawdown parameters
-
Want faster cash flow from smaller, regular withdrawals

Important Reminders
-
Your choice is permanent – Once you select a payout policy for a funded account, you cannot change it. Choose carefully based on your trading style.
-
No refunds or exchanges – If you later decide you prefer the other policy, you’ll need to purchase and pass another challenge.
-
Both lead to live trading – Neither policy is “better” than the other. They’re designed for different trading styles, but both provide a clear path to live funded trading.
-
Scaling is the same – Both policies use identical contract scaling structures as your account equity grows.
-
Same max funded accounts – You can hold up to 5 funded accounts total, regardless of which policy or account type you choose across all our funded accounts.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I have both policies on different accounts? Yes, if you pass multiple challenges, you can choose different payout policies for each funded account.
Do I have to choose immediately after passing? You’ll be prompted to choose when you activate the account. Take time to review both options before making your selection. Take into account that your challenge is a subscription based product, so if you don’t activate your passed eval you will be charged for your renewal if it’s due date.
Can I test both policies somehow? No, there’s no demo or testing option. Review the parameters carefully and choose the policy that best matches your trading approach.
What happens if I breach my funded account? Regardless of policy, a breach means your funded account is terminated. You would need to purchase and pass a new challenge to receive another funded account.
Does the buffer amount ever change? No, the buffer amounts are fixed for each account size under the Daily Payout Policy and do not change throughout your account lifecycle.
How does the Daily Continuity Rule work? You must have profit greater than $0 since your last payout, and you may request up to 2× the profit you earned above the buffer (capped at $1,000/$1,500/$2,500 depending on account size). For example, if you earned $250 in profit, you can request up to $500. If you earned $700, you can request up to $1,000 on a 50K account (since that’s the cap). Minimum payout is $250.
Does the Daily Continuity Rule apply to Select Flex (5-Day Policy) as well? No, the Daily Continuity Rule (2× profit multiplier) only applies to Select Daily. For Select Flex (5-Day Policy), you just need to have positive net profit (even just $1) during each payout cycle to qualify for your next payout. The Daily Continuity Rule is specific to the Daily payout policy.
What happens to my drawdown after my first payout? After your first payout is approved on Select Flex (5-Day Policy), your maximum trailing drawdown locks at $0. This means you cannot fail your account from drawdown violations – you only need to maintain a positive balance to continue trading.
Can I use PayPal for my payments? Yes, PayPal is now available as a payment method for Select accounts. You can configure your preferred payment method in your dashboard settings.
