How to request a payout

Step by step, from the dashboard to your bank.

Updated August 23, 2026

Before you request

Check all four conditions are met. The dashboard shows your progress against each:

  1. Five winning days since your last payout
  2. Balance above your payout profit target
  3. A payout window is open, the 5th to the 8th or the 20th to the 23rd
  4. Consistency satisfied, if your program has a requirement

If any is outstanding, the request will not be available yet.

Windows run 00:00 to 23:59 Eastern Time on calendar days, so they do not shift for weekends or holidays. If you become eligible between windows, wait for the next one. Nothing expires while you wait.

Verify your identity first

Identity verification is required once. On Classic and Horizon it is done when your account converts to funded, so it is usually already behind you. On Zenith it is needed before your first payout can be sent. How KYC works

Choosing an amount

  • Minimum $500 on every account size
  • Maximum depends on your account size and payout number. Payout caps
  • You cannot withdraw into your buffer. Available amount is your balance minus the buffer, which on a $50K account is $52,100

You do not have to take the maximum.

After you submit

The amount is deducted from your balance when the request is approved, not when you submit it. Review takes up to two business days, and on occasion it may take longer. Processing times

Trading pauses until it is processed

Submitting a request pauses trading on that account. You cannot place trades until the payout is processed.

This works in your favour, in that you cannot slip back under the buffer while you wait and lose the payout.
