Important Changes to Topstep Supported Platforms:
Starting July 7th, new Trading Combines will only be available on TopstepX. You can continue trading an active account on the platform that you have currently selected and will be able (if needed) to reset that account. After this date, you will no longer be able to switch platforms or purchase a new Trading Combine on any platform other than TopstepX.
Starting August 1st, the ability to reset will only be available on TopstepX. You can still trade your active existing account. However, if the account hits the Maximum Loss Limit on a platform that is not TopstepX, you will no longer be able to reset that account. If that occurs, you will be able to activate a new account on TopstepX.

Your Trading Combine subscription will rebill monthly from the sign-up date until you pass. The Trading Combine subscription automatically ends once you pass, and there is no monthly subscription fee in the Express Funded Account.

How long does it take to pass the Trading Combine and earn a Funded Account?
You can pass the Trading Combine and earn a Funded Account in as little as 2 days (thanks to the Consistency Target), but there's no set time frame for passing the Trading Combine. Your Trading Combine subscription will renew monthly until you pass and earn the Express Funded Account or cancel your subscription.
What happens to my subscription if I reset my account or break a rule?
Your Trading Combine doesn't automatically close or cancel if you break a rule. If you break a rule (hit the Maximum Loss Limit) in your Trading Combine, that account becomes ineligible for funding until it's reset, but it won't change or alter your subscription rebill date.
When you purchase a Reset for your Trading Combine, your subscription rebill date will automatically be moved 30 days later from the day of your Reset. For example, if your subscription is set to rebill on August 30th and you purchase a Reset on August 28th, your new rebill date will be September 29th.
Keep in mind that the account will remain ineligible for funding until it's Reset, but you can still trade on an ineligible account for practice once the markets reopen (Or you are welcome to trade on your Practice Account).
If you've broken the Maximum Loss Limit in your Trading Combine, we'll reset your account for no additional fee on the billing date after your rebill payment is processed. Learn more about the Reset-at-Rebill here.
Can I put my Trading Combine subscription on hold?
No, a Trading Combine cannot be paused or put on hold due to system limitations. The subscription renews monthly until you pass the Trading Combine and earn your Express Funded Account, or until you decide to cancel.
Since there's no time limit for completing the Trading Combine, you can keep your subscription active while you're away (remember, you'll still be billed monthly), or you can cancel it. If you cancel, any progress on the account will be lost, but you can sign up again when you're ready to trade.
I just opened a new Trading Combine. Will my other one automatically close?
No, starting a new Trading Combine won't automatically close other active Trading Combines. You can have multiple Trading Combine accounts under the same Topstep profile. Learn more about trading on multiple Trading Combines here: Can I have more than one active account?
When do I need to pass my Trading Combine to avoid being rebilled again?
If you want to avoid being rebilled after you pass your Trading Combine, your Trade Report needs to reflect that you've passed before your Trading Combine subscription rebill date. For example, if your rebill date is on the 5th of each month, you'll need to pass your Trading Combine before the trading day ends on the 4th to avoid being rebilled.
If I break a rule does my Trading Combine subscription automatically cancel or close?
No, if you break a rule in your Trading Combine, the account will not automatically close or cancel. The Trading Combine is a monthly subscription that rebills each month until you pass or cancel.
What payment methods are accepted for the Trading Combine?
You can pay for your Trading Combine with a credit card or debit card.
*Pre-paid credit cards and gift cards (including Cash App and Venmo cards) may not be valid payment methods. We recommend using a standard credit card or debit card.
What does the Trading Combine cost?
The cost of the Trading Combine varies by the account size.
A 50K Trading Combine Account is $49 per month
A 100K Trading Combine Account is $99 per month
A 150K Trading Combine Account is $149 per month
If I don't pass the Trading Combine in 30 days, do I have to pay again?
The Trading Combine is an automatic monthly subscription that rebills every 30 days. If you don't pass the Trading Combine in the first 30 days, or at any point during your subscription, you will be automatically rebilled each month until you pass the Trading Combine or cancel your monthly subscription.
Please note that when you purchase a Reset for your Trading Combine, your subscription rebill date will automatically be moved 30 days later from the day of your Reset. For example, if your subscription is set to rebill on August 30th and you purchase a Reset on August 28th, your new rebill date will be September 29th.
If I pass the Trading Combine but can't pay the Activation Fee right away, will I be rebilled again?
You will not be rebilled for the monthly subscription fee after passing the Trading Combine, even if you can't pay your Activation Fee immediately after passing. Once you pass the Trading Combine, your monthly rebill payments are automatically turned off.
