Payout Policies and Requirements

Updated today

Payout Guidelines

  1. Agreement Compliance:
    Each payout approval is conditional on adherence to the Funded Futures Family agreement. Ensuring compliance with all account rules is necessary before submitting any payout requests.

  2. Account-Specific Payouts:
    If you hold multiple accounts, each account’s payout request is handled independently. You may request payouts from each account according to its specific guidelines, provided that all rules are followed.

  3. Non-Modifiable Requests:
    Once a payout request has been submitted, it cannot be edited or canceled. It is recommended to carefully review all requirements and account balances before submitting a request.

  4. Transition to Live Funded Account:
    After a trader has successfully completed four payouts from the same account, Funded Futures Family reserves the right to move that trader to a live funded account. This decision is at the firm’s discretion, and if selected, you will be notified by email. In some cases, this transition may occur earlier if Funded Futures Family assesses that the trader’s performance meets their standards.


Payout Processing and Timeline

  • Payout Schedule:
    Trader will be able to request the payout anytime and any-day once they have achieved the targets. All approved payout requests will be processed every Tuesday.

Note: The cut-off period for a payout request is on every Monday at 5:00 PM EST & Thursday at 5:00 PM EST. Please make sure to submit the request before the mentioned time period for payout processing procedures.

  • Rise Contract Signing/Payout Disbursement:

    After the approval of the payout and the deductions are done, the trader gets an invite from our payout provider Rise. Once the onboarding is done they payout will be sent within 24hours of signing the contract.


Payout Requirements

Consistency Rule Compliance: In Sim Funded accounts traders must follow the Consistency Rule, which is designed to ensure stable and responsible trading behavior. The Consistency Rule limits the percentage of total profits that can be made in a single day, helping to reinforce sustainable trading practices.

Consistency Rule structure for Sim-Funded accounts:

  • Payouts 1 to 3: 40% consistency applies

  • Payouts 4 and 5: 45% consistency applies

  • Payout 6 and beyond: 50% consistency applies

Minimum Days Traded: To be eligible for a payout, traders must achieve at least 7 different days of trading with each day reflecting a gain of $200 or more. These days do not need to be consecutive, but the count of qualifying days resets after each payout.

Trading Day Definition: A “trading day” is defined as at least one trade placed between 6:00 P.M. EST/EDT and 5:00 P.M. EST/EDT the following day.

Buffer Policy & Withdrawal Limits: Each funded account stage has a required buffer that must be maintained in the account after any withdrawal. The buffer represents protected capital in the account and cannot be withdrawn into at any time. This buffer ensures account stability and supports the trader’s ability to continue trading smoothly after a payout request.

For example, on a $50,000 funded account in Payout Stage 1, there is a $2,500 buffer requirement. This means:

  • After any approved payout, the trader must maintain at least $52,500 in the account.

  • Withdrawals cannot bring the account balance below this $52,500 threshold.

  • The buffer is not part of withdrawable profits—it must remain in the account at all times.

Traders should plan withdrawals carefully, as any withdrawal request that would reduce the account balance below the required buffer will be denied.


Important Notes on Trading and Payouts

  • Continued Trading After Payout Request:
    Traders may continue trading after submitting a payout request. However, if the account balance drops below the buffer or fails, the payout request will be denied, and traders will need to re-qualify with 7 more trading days of $200+ gains.

  • Live Account Withdrawal Flexibility:
    If moved to a live account, traders gain additional flexibility, including daily withdrawal options.


In the simulated funded accounts, traders can earn up to a capped profit of $100,000 per user. If a trader exceeds this amount, no penalties or account changes will occur immediately. However, any profit above the $100,000 cap will not be eligible for withdrawal, as these additional gains are forfeited under the cap policy.

Once a trader reaches this cap, Funded Futures Family will review the account to assess eligibility for a transition to a live account. Moving to a live account brings added benefits, including daily withdrawal options after meeting initial requirements and gaining approval.

Each account is treated independently, and traders may continue trading as usual while awaiting this review and potential transition.

This policy ensures that traders on simulated funded accounts can maximize their earning potential while progressing toward live trading privileges.

Important Note: Funded Futures Family reserves the right to temporarily uncap withdrawals for traders they feel would benefit from additional time on the simulated funded account. This exception enables us to continue assessing a trader’s performance before making the transition to a live account, providing greater flexibility in account progression.
