Payout Guide for Sim-Funded Accounts

Getting paid is a four-step process. This page walks you through it, what happens after you submit, how you receive your money, and what can delay a payout.

How to request a payout

You also need to reach your payout goal; Hero X has none. See Payout eligibility by challenge type.

Payout methods

The 5% fee on RISE and Crypto is charged by FundedHero to cover transaction and processing costs. Straight to Broker payouts are credited to your FHX Markets trading account, where you can withdraw through the FHX Markets platform or keep trading with them.

Payout limits

• Minimum and maximum are set per plan and account size, ranging from $100 to $1,000 minimum and $500 to $5,000 maximum. Your challenge page lists the exact figures for your account.
• 1-Step plans (Hero ONE and Hero ZERO) have no minimum payout amount. You just need to hit your minimum winning days and payout goal.
• First 30 days on a funded account: you can withdraw up to $2,500 in total during your first 30 days.

Why traders trust our payouts

• Flexible methods: Straight to Broker (FHX Markets), RISE or crypto
• Secure processing: every payout is handled through a trusted, secure system
• Transparent rules: everything is laid out clearly, with no hidden catches or vague limits

Why a payout can be denied or delayed

• You’ve given back more than 35% of your total profits — in other words, you must keep at least 65% of your profits at the time you request.
• You break your plan’s consistency rule — Hero Live: 20% per day, Hero ONE (1-Step and 2-Step) and Hero ZERO 1-Step: 50% per day, Hero X and Hero ZERO 2-Step: no consistency rule on payouts.
• You break any trading rule.

Cooldown rule

If a trade or trading day gains 3% or more of your account balance, your contract size is cut by 50% for the next trading day. This reinforces risk control and steady performance.

Withdrawals count toward your Maximum Loss Limit

Plan your withdrawals so you keep a buffer above your limit. See also the Trailing Withdrawable Balance Policy.

Smart payout habits

• Take profits in smaller chunks — don’t drain the whole account at once.
• Always leave a buffer above your max drawdown.
• Treat payouts as checkpoints, not the finish line.
• Don’t force big trades just to qualify — stay consistent and within your edge.
