Evaluation or instant funding?

The honest trade-off between paying less and starting sooner.

Updated August 14, 2026

Two routes to the same funded account. One asks you to hit a profit target first, the other starts you funded.

Side by side

Evaluation (Classic, Horizon) Instant (Zenith)
How you get funded Reach a profit target Funded on your first trade
Profit target 6% of account size None
Minimum trading days 1 on Classic, 3 on Horizon None
Price Our lowest Higher, and there is no evaluation to trade
Consistency once funded 35% on Classic, none on Horizon 20 / 25 / 30%

Everything else is the same on both routes: the same account sizes, the same end of day trailing drawdown, no daily loss limit, the same 90% split, and the same payout rules.

Which one to pick

Take an evaluation if price is what matters most. It is the cheapest way into a funded account, and you can pass Classic in a single day.

Take Zenith if starting sooner matters more. There is no target to reach and nothing to pass, so your first trade is already on a funded account.

Current prices for all three are on the pricing page.
