The 90/10 profit split, with worked examples

You keep 90% of simulated profit, the firm keeps 10%, fixed at every account size with no tiers or fine print.

The short answer

You keep 90% of the net simulated profit on your account. UZO keeps 10%. That split is fixed at every account size and on every product, and it never gets smaller as you scale.

When you reach a payout, your reward is calculated from the net simulated profit on your account, then divided 90/10 in your favour. There are no tiers, no qualifying conditions, and no escalating firm share. What you see is what you get.


How the split is calculated

The split applies to the net simulated profit on your account at the time of your payout request. Net means trading costs along the way are already accounted for: the same real spreads and commissions any trader pays in a live market, applied uniformly across all our traders.

The maths is deliberately simple. Take your net simulated profit, multiply by 0.9, and that is your share. The remaining 10% is the firm's. Your exact figure, including how trading costs net out, is always shown on your dashboard before you confirm a payout, so there is never a surprise.

The formula

Your reward = net simulated profit x 90%.


Worked examples at different profit sizes

Here is exactly what 90/10 looks like on real profit amounts. The percentages hold no matter how large the number gets.

Net simulated profit

You keep (90%)

Firm keeps (10%)

$1,000

$900

$100

$5,000

$4,500

$500

$10,000

$9,000

$1,000

$25,000

$22,500

$2,500

Read the first row plainly: on $1,000 of simulated profit, $900 is yours and $100 is the firm's. On $10,000, you take home $9,000. The ratio is identical every time.


Does the split ever change?

No. The 90/10 split is fixed in writing and does not move with your account size, your product, or how many payouts you have taken. A trader on a $5,000 One Step account keeps the same 90% as a trader running a $1M Instant account.

It also does not change as you scale. As your account grows through our scaling plan, from $100K toward $200K, $500K, $1M and beyond, you keep 90% the whole way. There is no penalty tier and no reduced share at the top end. The split is one of the few things about trading that stays completely predictable.

One number to remember

90% is yours. It does not shrink because you got bigger or because you came back for a second payout.


What is and is not included in the split

The 90/10 split is calculated only on the net simulated profit you generate. A few things to keep clear:

  • Trading costs (real spreads and commissions) are part of how your net profit is figured, so they are reflected before the split, not deducted from your 90% afterwards.

  • Your starting simulated balance is not profit, so it is never part of the split. The split is on gains, not capital.

  • The split is the only deduction from your reward. There is no separate payout fee taken from your share.

  • Your evaluation fee is refunded to you on your first reward payout, so the cost of entry comes back once you succeed.

For the precise breakdown on your own account, including how costs net out, your dashboard shows the exact profit figure and the exact reward before you confirm. If anything looks off, write to us at support@uzo.com and we will walk through it with you.
