Pass and payout rates, in TradeDay's words

TradeDay doesn't publish a pass rate or a payout rate on the pages we read. The firms that do.

Firms count these differently (accounts or people, different periods), so don't rank one firm's figure against another's. All firms that publish their rates.

What it costs to reach a funded account

  • As shown to a US visitor, 16 October 2026
