The short answer
Once you are funded and trading well, your account climbs a fixed ladder: $100K, then $200K, then $500K, then $1M. From there scaling continues up to $4M. Each step adds roughly 35% to your account size every 4 months that you stay eligible, and you never pay a new fee to scale.
Scaling is how UZO rewards traders who keep performing. You do not buy a bigger account, you earn it by staying consistent and in good standing on the one you already have. Here is exactly how the ladder works, how fast it can move, and what it means for your split and payouts.
The scaling ladder explained
Entry account sizes range from $5K up to $1M when you start an evaluation. The scaling plan extends well beyond that. As a funded trader, your account size advances through these published tiers:
Tier | Account size |
Starting funded tier | $100K |
Next | $200K |
Next | $500K |
Next | $1M |
Continued scaling | up to $4M |
The ladder is the headline path. Beyond $1M, scaling continues under the same programme until your account reaches the $4M ceiling. Each move up gives you more simulated capital to work with, and the same trading conditions you already know.
The +35% every 4 months cadence
Scaling is rhythmic, not random. While you remain eligible, your account grows by about 35% every 4 months. That cadence is what carries you up the ladder over time, rather than a single large jump.
The exact performance and consistency conditions that trigger each scale-up step are set in the live programme terms and shown on your dashboard. We do not publish a fixed profit figure here because the qualifying conditions are maintained in one place so they stay current. The principle is simple: trade well, stay in good standing, and the increases follow on schedule.
Reaching $4M
$4M is the top of the scaling plan. A trader who keeps qualifying step after step can grow from a $100K funded account all the way to $4M of simulated capital. Because growth is paced at roughly 35% every 4 months, reaching the ceiling rewards patience and durability, the same qualities that make a trader profitable in the first place.
There is no shortcut and no penalty for taking your time. The ladder waits for you between increases, and your job is simply to keep the account healthy and performing.
No new fee to scale
Scaling is free
Every step up the ladder, from $100K to $4M, comes at no new cost. You never pay another evaluation fee or upgrade charge to receive a larger account.
This matters. At many firms a bigger account means a bigger bill. At UZO, scaling is a reward you earn through performance, not a product you buy again. Your original evaluation fee is also refunded on your first reward payout, so the cost of starting can come back to you entirely.
How scaling interacts with your split and payouts
Scaling changes the size of the account, not the deal. Your profit split stays fixed as you climb.
You keep 90%
The 90% trader and 10% firm split is fixed at every account size, from your first funded tier to $4M. A larger account simply means the same 90% applies to a larger base.
Payouts work the same way at every tier. Rewards are approved in under an hour and clear within 12 hours, paid by bank transfer or crypto. Scaling never resets your payout history or your standing, it builds on what you have already earned.
Planning your growth
If you are mapping out the road ahead, a few practical points help:
Stay in good standing. Scaling depends on keeping your funded account healthy and within its risk rules.
Think in 4-month windows. The cadence is steady, so plan around it rather than chasing a single big jump.
Check your dashboard for the live qualifying conditions. They are the authoritative source for each step.
Remember the split never moves. Growth compounds the size of the base your 90% is calculated on.
Scaling is the long game UZO is built for. Consistency on a $100K account today is what unlocks $4M later, all on the same terms you started with.
