Rewards, explained honestly.
Rewards are conditional payments from us under the Client Agreement and Program Rules. They are not withdrawals of a virtual balance and are never guaranteed.
Indicative share: 80%
Indicative launch terms list an 80/20 split in favour of the trader for all three models.
Timing
Step-model XAU Funded account (simulated): first reward request 5 calendar days from the first trade in that account, then every 5 days. Minimum request: 1% of the initial balance. XAU Direct (simulated): The first reward can be requested after at least 5 trading days and 14 days from the first trade; then every 14 days. The optional 7-day cycle replaces the 14-day wait and cycle; the minimum 5 trading days still applies.
Minimum request: 1%
Step-model minimum request: 1% of the initial balance.
After a reward
After each reward, step-model account balances reset to the initial balance. For XAU Direct (simulated accounts), the maximum-loss floor never moves down after a reward; excess profit above the first-two-reward caps remains for the next request.
Reward basis
Rewards are the trader share of closed simulated profit above the initial balance: 80%, or 90% with the optional add-on. Rewards are conditional on the Client Agreement and Program Rules and are not guaranteed; they are not withdrawals of virtual balance.

Review and payment
We aim to complete review within 10 business days (Client Agreement 7.2). Payment is within 3 business days after approval, via our payment provider: USDT on TRC20 or ERC20, or USDC on ERC20, only to a wallet in the trader’s own name (Client Agreement 7.6). Network fees may apply. Rewards are conditional and not guaranteed.
Fee reimbursement — step models only
Step models only: the challenge fee you actually paid (after any discount code) is reimbursed with your first approved reward. Add-ons are not reimbursed. Not offered for XAU Direct.
XAU Direct — reward cap
Simulated accountOn XAU Direct, the first 2 rewards are each capped at 5% of the account size. The cap is on the amount paid to you after the 80% reward share (for example, up to $500 on a $10,000 account). After that there is no cap. Profit above the cap stays in the account and counts toward the next request. Step models have no cap.
Optional add-ons and programs
XAU Direct strict rules cannot be removed by any add-on.
Add-ons are optional, chosen at checkout, and form part of the Program Rules for that order.
Fewer minimum trading days add-on
+15% on the fee. Step models only: 2 minimum trading days per evaluation phase instead of 5. Not offered for XAU Direct.
90% reward share add-on
+25% on the fee, all models. Reward share increases from 80% to 90%.
7-day reward cycle add-on
+20% on the fee, XAU Direct only (simulated accounts). Reduces the 14-day wait and cycle to 7 days. Step models keep 5 days; this add-on is not offered for them.
Re-buy discount
20% off a new account of any model bought within 7 days after an account is breached.
Scaling
After 3 approved rewards and cumulative simulated profit of at least 10% of the initial balance over those cycles, the account size increases by 25%, up to the allocation limits.
