After spending time and effort trading my funded account, my payout was denied and my account was terminated over a trade that exceeded the 1% risk limit by just a few dollars due to slippage. The trade had a stop loss in place and was opened with risk below the stated limit. However, when the trade was executed slightly beyond the stop loss, the firm chose to use the final executed loss to declare a breach and deny the payout. What makes this frustrating is that the rules appear straightforward until payout time, when additional interpretations suddenly become relevant. A trader can believe they are fully compliant, only to discover later that normal market slippage can be used against them even when a stop loss was correctly placed. The result was a denied payout, a closed account, and a complete loss of confidence in the firm’s evaluation process. My experience left me with the impression that passing the challenge is one thing, but actually receiving a payout is Based on my experience, I cannot recommend this firm.

Hello Karn,

Thank you for sharing your detailed mathematical breakdown regarding your trade parameters ($230 planned Stop Loss risk vs. $254 realized loss following execution slippage). We appreciate you taking the time to outline your exact perspective on our 1% per-position risk rule.

To clarify our compliance framework: while our guidelines define intended trade risk based on the entry-to-Stop Loss distance set by the trader, our automated risk engine must also account for real-time account equity drawn on the broker server. When market volatility or liquidity gaps push the actual executed fill past the set Stop Loss, the actual loss recorded on the account can exceed the hard 1% threshold. Because our risk engine monitors actual server-side equity changes, it logs the final realized metric as a breach.

We acknowledge your frustration regarding how this execution gap impacted your account status. Our senior compliance team has already conducted a full, manual review of your raw MT5 execution logs and provided our official final determination through your direct email thread.

While we understand your disagreement with the final outcome and the rejection of our goodwill alternatives, our risk policies must be applied consistently across all accounts. As your compliance file has been officially concluded, no further updates can be made regarding this account. We sincerely wish you all the best in your future trading endeavors.

I am writing this review now because I only recently discovered this platform. I purchased an account from this company and traded while respecting their risk management rules. I maintained consistent performance throughout the evaluation and eventually requested a payout of **$1,901**. Up until that point, everything seemed fine. They then invited me to an interview, where I answered every question completely and honestly. Their attitude during the interview gave me the impression that everything had gone well. However, shortly after the interview ended, I received an email informing me that my payout request had been rejected. I repeatedly asked which specific rule I had violated or which trade supposedly breached their policies. They were unable to provide any answer. After I continued asking for clarification, they finally told me they could not disclose that information because it was "company policy," UPDATE : After I posted the comment you see above, they contacted me. They said they would refund my $207 fund purchase fee due to the inconvenience they caused, and they did. IIn my opinion, my problem is not solved. They didn't give me the $1900 payout. They closed my account. They didn't tell me which rule I violated. After I commented on this site, they started saying "we care about you, your opinion is important to us," In conclusion, they still haven't given me the payout, but they did refund my $207 fund purchase fee.

At first, they claimed that my KYC verification had not been approved. After I proved that my KYC had already been successfully approved, they accused me of violating their rules.

Update: They still haven't given me my payout after I commented here, but they did give me my $207 fund purchase fee. I still don't think my problem is solved.

Hello Dilara,

Thank you for your feedback.

Regarding your payout request — during the risk interview conducted on March 10, our Risk Team identified activity that did not comply with our trading rules. Based on that review, the account was cancelled in accordance with our Terms and Conditions.

We understand this isn't the outcome you were hoping for.

Thank you for your understanding.

Edit: Hello, three of my 25k challenge accounts failed due to a sudden spread widening. While I initially thought this was not done in good faith, the company reimbursed me for my losses and informed me that they have initiated a resolution process to prevent such sudden spread increases. I thank them for taking responsibility for the mistake, not causing me any further inconvenience, and for initiating a resolution process to prevent a recurrence. -- I have worked with dozens of firms, and I have never encountered anything like this before. This approach is fraud disguised as spread expansion. No matter how good your trade setup is, they can instantly move your trade to a 315-pip spread under the excuse of spread widening and mark you as failed.

I purchased two $300K instant funded accounts from this firm. After failing my first account, I made over $12,000 in profit on my second and requested a payout of $10,916. They stalled the process for a week, claiming they needed to “activate rise payment”. After that, they terminated my account, accused me of IP sharing and copy trading, and completely blocked my access. I spent 2 months emailing them and even asked for a Zoom call to prove my trades were legitimate. They refused and kept repeating that their “system detected it” and the decision was final. For IP violation. they just mentioned some random IP address. That IP didn't even belong to me. But later they admitted their mistake. The only evidence they shared was an Excel sheet showing 2 trades—from my old breached account. Even that didn’t make sense: account sizes, entry times, and exit times were different. More importantly, I entered and exited those trades before the other trader, which completely invalidates any copy trading claim. I have no contact with any trader and do not engage in copy trading. This accusation is baseless. In total, I spent around $2,200 purchasing accounts. When it was time for them to pay $10.9K, they refused and instead terminated my account on weak and unsubstantiated grounds. This raises serious concerns about their practices. While they may pay some traders, it appears that others are denied payouts under questionable accusations to protect their bottom line. I strongly advise caution. Do not rush into buying instant funded accounts from this firm. I have seen many bad reviews of this firm with this same issue. At the end of the day, it’s a risk—you could be the next trader whose payout gets denied without fair justification.

IP sharing violation and Copy Trading

Summary

They suddenly terminated my account, accusing me of “IP sharing” and “copy trading violations.” My account was deactivated, and I lost access completely. I spent the next two months following up via email and even requested a Zoom call so I could prove my trades were legitimate. They refused every time, repeating the same generic response: “our system detected it and the decision is final.” The only “evidence” they provided was an Excel sheet showing just two trades. These trades were from my old (already breached) account, and even then, the details didn’t match—the account sizes, entry times, and exit times were all different. In fact, I entered those trades before the so-called “other trader” and exited earlier as well. This clearly disproves any claim of copy trading. I have no connection with any other trader, and I do not engage in copy trading. Their conclusion is baseless.

Hi,

We would like to clarify the timeline and findings regarding your payout request and subsequent account review.

Your payout request was submitted via Rise on January 29, 2026. As part of the standard payout process, customers are required to complete the Rise onboarding process before the payout review can begin. This is an external onboarding requirement and not a delay caused by our side. Our support team also assisted you throughout this process and provided clarification regarding the required steps.

Once the Rise onboarding was completed, the payout review commenced. During this review, on 03/02/2026, your account activity was flagged and reviewed for prohibited trading behaviour.

Following a detailed investigation, the account was confirmed to be engaged in copy trading activity in breach of our Trading Rules and Terms & Conditions. Supporting evidence relating to the violation was shared with you during our communication.

We would also like to clarify that at no point did we reverse or withdraw our findings regarding the violation. Our position remained consistent throughout the review process.

Regarding your concern that the trades could not constitute copy trading because your entries occurred slightly earlier than the compared account, please understand that exact timestamp matching is not the sole factor used in identifying copy trading behaviour.

Our review confirmed that:

1. The trades were executed within an extremely short timeframe
2. The same instruments and trade directions were used
3. The opening and closing patterns were closely mirrored across accounts

Additionally, differences in lot sizes do not invalidate copy trading classifications, as such variations can naturally occur due to account size differences, scaling methods, or varying risk parameters.

Our systems assess the overall behavioural correlation and consistency of trading activity rather than relying solely on identical execution times or lot sizes. Based on the complete evidence reviewed, the activity matched established copy trading indicators and was therefore confirmed as a violation.

As outlined in our Trading Rules and Terms & Conditions, all trading activity must be conducted independently. Any form of mirrored or replicated trading behaviour across accounts is strictly prohibited.

Following multiple reviews by the relevant teams, the violation remains valid and the decision is final.

I am updating my rating to 5 stars to acknowledge Priya from the customer relations team for her prompt communication in processing this settlement. On July 16, 2025, a total generated profit of $4,556.89 was voided from my trading account, and the firm issued a replacement account instead. At the time, the firm stated the profit deduction was due to an alleged VPN/VPS violation. However, I did not use any VPN/VPS services or violate any trading rules during my operations. Recently, in July 2026, the firm's compliance team proactively reached out to review this historical case, stating this time that the account had been flagged under their copy-trading policy. To resolve this matter, the firm has now fully refunded the original registration fee back to my card and issued a partial payout via cryptocurrency. Both amounts have been fully received and cleared in my accounts.

It's a real shame. I'm disappointed. I had set a stop-loss lower than 1% risk per trade, but due to candle slippage, that risk was reached. And there was no notification in the middle of the trade that my risk had been reached, so I didn't need to continue the trading process anymore at that time. On June 22, 2026, they didn't inform me that I had committed a serious violation. However, upon payout, my account was immediately canceled. Update : I was provided with a free account reset solution for this incident. I greatly appreciate the service provided by the relevant team.

Hello Dede,

Thank you for updating your review with those specific details regarding the timeline. We completely understand why being able to continue trading after June 22, 2026, only to face an account cancellation at the payout phase, feels incredibly confusing and frustrating.

To clarify how our risk assessment works technically: when a severe slippage event or high-volatility price movement pushes a trade past our maximum risk parameters (such as the 1% limit), the system automatically logs a hard breach on the server backend at that exact millisecond. While the trading terminal itself may sometimes remain temporarily open, the account is structurally flagged as invalid for funding. These flags are then thoroughly audited by our compliance team during the formal payout review process, which is when the final cancellation is officially processed.
 
Upon reviewing your account, we can confirm that the XAUUSD trade in question recorded a loss of $50.32. As per the IF Micro trading guidelines, the Maximum Risk Per Trade Idea rule permits a maximum risk of 1% of the starting account balance on a single trade idea. For a $5,000 funded account, this means the maximum permitted threshold is $50.00. The recorded loss of $50.32 therefore exceeded the permitted limit by $0.32, and as a result, a hard breach was triggered and the account was closed in accordance with our published trading policies.
 
We do acknowledge that the margin by which the threshold was exceeded is very small. However, our trading guidelines apply uniformly across all funded accounts, and even a breach of $0.01 above the permitted limit constitutes a violation.
 
Regarding your mention of slippage, we understand that market conditions can sometimes cause execution prices to differ from the intended Stop Loss level. A Stop Loss functions as a trigger instruction rather than a guaranteed execution price. Once the trigger level is reached, it converts into a market order and the final fill price is determined by the available market liquidity at that moment. Differences in price may occur due to volatility, spread widening, or fast market movement. Slippage does not exempt a trade from the Maximum Risk Per Trade Idea rule, nor does it retroactively alter the risk that was placed at the time of entry. 

I hope this explains everything

I have had a great experience with this prop firm. I successfully received my first payout of $1,200, and the funds arrived in about 30 hours, which was much faster than I expected. The payout process was smooth, with no issues during verification or payment. The trading conditions have also been good, with smooth execution and an easy-to-use dashboard. Customer support has been responsive whenever I had questions. Overall, I am very satisfied with the service and hope they continue maintaining the same high standard.

It offers the lowest price for an instant account, so I’d give it 4 out of 5 stars. The rules are clearly stated, though the 1% rule and 15% consistency requirement are a bit strict (3/5 stars). Customer care responds promptly and provides good guidance, so that’s 4 out of 5 stars. The dashboard looks a bit dated, hence 3 stars. Account credentials arrive immediately, so 4 out of 5 stars. I haven't reached the payout stage yet, so I can't comment on that; overall, I’d give it a 3.5/5 rating.
