The firm offers Instant (no evaluation), Static One-Phase (1-step), and Two-Phase (2-step) programs across multiple account sizes. Account sizes range from $1,250 to $200,000. Three platforms are supported: cTrader, Match Trader, and MT5. No coupon code is currently published.

No original prices are listed; these are current prices without a stated discount. Payments are accepted via Apple Pay, Credit/Debit Card, Crypto, Google Pay, Neteller, Skrill, and Sofort.
Three platforms are supported: cTrader, Match Trader, and MT5. Tradable instruments include FX, Metals, Indices, Energy, and Crypto. Leverage is uniform across all program types: FX at 1:100, Metals at 1:20, Indices at 1:20, Energy at 1:20, and Crypto at 1:2. News trading on funded accounts is restricted ā positions cannot be opened or closed within 4 to 5 minutes before or after high-impact news, depending on account type. Two-Phase Max accounts carry a 5-minute news restriction during the challenge phase as well. Minimum trade hold time is 60 seconds; trades closed in under 60 seconds constitute prohibited HFT.
The Two-Phase Max profit split is tiered: 60% for accounts aged 5 to 13 days, 80% for 14 to 27 days, and 95% for accounts 28 days or older. Payout frequency varies: Instant accounts receive the first payout after 14 days, then every 7 days. IF1 accounts allow one on-demand payout after 24 hours. IF Micro Pro accounts pay every 14 days. Other program types are on-demand. The minimum payout ranges from 1.5% to 5% of the starting balance or a flat $25, depending on program. Payout methods are Crypto and Riseworks. The inactivity rule closes accounts after 60 consecutive days.
Instant Funding prohibits account churning (rolling), one-sided bets, grid trading, overleveraging, and gambling. Smart Drawdown applies on Instant accounts: the drawdown starts at -10%, adjusts to -5% once the trader achieves 5% gain, and then remains fixed at that level. Martingale strategies are permitted on challenge accounts and IF Micro accounts; on Instant accounts, traders may add to losing positions but must not continuously double lot sizes. The inactivity threshold is 60 days across all accounts. Copy trading and EA usage policies depend on account type; risk and trade management EAs are generally allowed with restrictions applied to Instant accounts per the firm's current terms.
