Can I change my trading account password?

Yes, you can change your trading password from our client area. Once updated, the new password will be the same for both the trading platform and the client area.
Client Area Link: - https://app.quick-funded.io/login

Can I purchase multiple accounts, and is it possible to upgrade my account?

Each person is allowed to have only one active account. Trading multiple accounts is strictly prohibited, and if found, we reserve the right to deny any payouts.

However, you now have the option to upgrade to a new account size under the following conditions:

Upgrade Rules:

  • You must pass the challenge for the new account size you wish to upgrade to.
  • Once you choose a new challenge, your old account will be locked immediately.
  • You can upgrade at any time, regardless of whether your current account is in drawdown, failed, or in profit.
  • A $9 upgrade fee will be charged when initiating the upgrade.

For Simulated Funded Clients:

  • You can upgrade without the $9 fee by using your payout to cover the full difference in challenge fee between your current and the new account.
  • You must still pass the new challenge to complete the upgrade.
  • Partial payments are not allowed — only full payments will be accepted from payouts.
  • Any excess amount left after the challenge fee is covered will be available for withdrawal.
  • Alternatively, you may transfer your payout into your Quick Funded Wallet and use those funds to pay for the new challenge after passing it as part of your upgrade.

When will I receive my login details after making a payment?

As soon as the payment is completed, your simulated funded account will be added to your trading platform. We will not send new login credentials, as your existing ones remain the same. While the process is usually instant, it may take up to 24 hours in some cases.

What is "1 retries at $4.99"?

If you fail the challenge, you can purchase 1 retry attempt for a total of $4.99. This means you'll get new chances to try and pass the challenge without paying the full challenge fee again.
Note: You can continue buying retries at $4.99, and there is no limit on the number of retries you can purchase.

What happens if I fail the challenge?

If you fail the challenge, you can purchase an additional retry for $4.99 per retry, regardless of the account size. There is no limit on the number of retries you can purchase, and retries can be purchased again if you fail.

What if I violate any of the trading rules?

If you exceed the daily or maximum drawdown limits, our system will automatically lock your trading account and switch it to read-only mode. This status will be reflected on your dashboard, with the account marked as "Failed." To retake the evaluation, you will need to purchase retry attempts.

Is there any discount when we pass the challenge?

If you make the payment within 5 days of passing the challenge, you will receive a 20% discount.

When do I need to pay the fee for the simulated funded account after passing the challenge?

You are required to pay the fee for the funded account within 30 days after receiving the payment link in your client area, following the successful completion of the challenge.

How much do I need to pay after passing the challenge to get a funded account with Quick Funded?

When you register with Quick Funded and choose any challenge, you are required to pay a commitment fee of $4.99 USD.
If you pass the challenge, the $4.99 commitment fee will be deducted from the funded account activation fee listed below.
If you fail the challenge, the commitment fee is non-refundable.
After passing the challenge, the remaining fees to obtain a funded account are:

  • 10K Account: $99
  • 25K Account: $159
  • 50K Account: $299
  • 100K Account: $499
  • 200K Account: $979

What if I'm unable to pay within 30 days?

You will have up to 4 months to activate your account by paying an activation fee equal to 5% of the challenge fee. If you still fail to complete the payment within these 4 months, your challenge status will be marked as "Failed." To continue, you will need to purchase retry attempts for $4.99.

Can I request a reset of my challenge?

No. We don't offer resets.
However, Recharge is available for funded accounts.
(70% Recharge Rule)

Am I allowed to use a VPN while trading?

No, the use of VPNs is not permitted.

Does QuickFunded offer a referral program?

Yes, QuickFunded  offer a referral program. Just visit your portal or contact sales department at sales@quick-funded.io

Do you have an IP rule?

Yes, trading accounts should ideally be accessed from a consistent geographical location.
Significant geographical IP changes require prior notification to the firm.
We understand that people travel for work, and changes in IPs are normal. However, frequent and drastic IP changes in a short period (beyond what is possible through normal travel) will be considered a violation of our rules.
This rule ensures fair trading and enhances account security. If you are traveling, there's no issue, but if your account shows suspiciously fast location changes, it may trigger a review.
Example: Suppose you live in the U.K. Is it possible to travel from the U.K. to Dubai in just 5 minutes? Of course not. Similarly, your IP address shouldn't show sudden, extreme changes in a short time.

Can I manage someone else's account or let them trade mine?

No. Accounts are personal and linked to your KYC and IP.
Account sharing results in a permanent ban.

What countries are restricted from using QuickFunded?

We do not accept clients from:

  • North Korea
  • Iran
  • Syria
  • Afghanistan
  • Other OFAC-sanctioned countries

How long can I trade on a Pay-When-You-Pass account?

Each Pay-When-You-Pass challenge comes with a 60-day duration to complete your objectives. If you don't pass within this time, the account will be locked and marked as failed.
To restart, you can purchase a package of two retries for just $9 — please note that single retries are not available. Each retry provides a new challenge account so you can continue working toward funding.

Challenge & Funded Stage Rules

What is the daily drawdown limit?

The daily drawdown limit might depends on the phase of the program.

Challenge Phase:
The maximum daily drawdown is 4%.

Funded Phase (SFA):
The maximum daily drawdown is 4%.

The daily drawdown is calculated using the higher value between balance or equity and is updated at the daily rollover at 22:00 GMT.

This means that if your account reaches a new profit level during the day, the drawdown reference will adjust accordingly at rollover.

If the daily drawdown limit is breached, it will be recorded as a violation on the account. Accumulating three violations results in the account being closed, and the trader must start a new Challenge to continue with QuickFunded.

What is the maximum drawdown limit?

The maximum drawdown limit might depends on the phase of the program.

Challenge Phase:
The maximum overall drawdown is 8% of the initial account balance.

Funded Phase (SFA):
The maximum overall drawdown is 8%.

The maximum drawdown is calculated using the higher value between the account balance or equity and is updated daily at the rollover time of 22:00 GMT.

If the maximum drawdown limit is breached, the account will receive a violation. If an account accumulates three violations, it will be closed, and the trader must start a new Challenge in order to continue with QuickFunded.

How is the daily drawdown calculated?

The daily drawdown is calculated using the higher value between the account balance or equity at the daily rollover time of 22:00 GMT.

This value becomes the reference point for the next trading day.

From that reference point:

  • During the Challenge Phase, the account cannot lose more than 4% in a single day.

  • During the Funded Phase (SFA), the account cannot lose more than 3% in a single day.

Example:

If at the daily rollover your account balance or equity is $102,000, that value becomes the reference for the next day.

  • In the Challenge Phase, the maximum daily loss allowed would be $4,080 (4%).

  • In the Funded Phase, the maximum daily loss allowed would be $3,060 (3%).

If the account equity falls below the allowed daily drawdown limit, a violation will be recorded on the account. If an account reaches three violations, it will be closed, and the trader must start a new Challenge to continue with QuickFunded.

What profit target do I need to reach to pass the challenge?

To successfully pass the Challenge Phase, traders must achieve a profit target of 5% of the initial account balance while respecting all trading rules and risk limits.

Example:

Account Size Profit Target
$5,000 $250
$10,000 $500
$50,000 $2,500
$100,000 $5,000
$200,000 $10,000

In addition to reaching the profit target, traders must also:

• Respect the daily drawdown limit (4%)
• Respect the maximum drawdown limit (8%)
• Complete a minimum of 3 trading days
• Follow all program trading rules

Once these conditions are met, the account will be reviewed and the trader may proceed to the Funded Phase (SFA).

What strategies are allowed and prohibited?

We allow a variety of trading strategies, including swing trading, scalping, trend-following, and price action strategies.

However, the following practices are strictly prohibited:

  • Signal trading via copy traders
  • Account management through third-party copy traders
  • High-frequency trading (HFT)
  • Data feed manipulation
  • Tick scalping
  • Latency arbitrage
  • Reverse arbitrage
  • Hedge arbitrage
  • Use of emulators
  • Any form of moral hazard

Engaging in any of these prohibited activities may result in account termination and forfeiture of any payouts.

What is the maximum running position you can have at a time in a particular pair?

You can open a maximum of 2 consecutive positions in the same pair, but you cannot have more than 2 open positions on a single pair at any time. Once you close a position, you must wait at least 5 minutes before opening a new position. For example, if you open 2 trades on EUR/USD and then close one, you still can't open a third position right away. You must wait 5 minutes before opening another trade on EUR/USD in either direction.

Can I trade economic news events?

For Challenge Accounts: Trading economic news events is allowed during the challenge phase.

For Funded Accounts: Trading economic news events is strictly restricted on funded accounts. If you have open positions, ensure that your stop-loss (SL) and take-profit (TP) levels are not triggered during these times. Additionally, refrain from opening new positions within 5 minutes before and after major news releases.

Am I allowed to copy trades or trade as part of a team?

Each trader is expected to develop and execute their own trading strategies independently. Collaborative trading efforts, such as copying trades or trading collectively as a team, are prohibited on our simulated trading platform.

Are there any limitations on lot sizes?

There are no specific restrictions on lot sizes for trades conducted on our platform.

What are the guidelines for implementing stop-loss orders?

While we do not mandate the use of stop-loss orders, we highly recommend their use as a risk management tool to protect your trading capital.

What are the rules for trading gold (XAU/USD)?

Rules for Trading Gold (XAU/USD):

Trade Limit: You can open a maximum of 2 trades per hour.

Cooldown Period: After closing a position, you must wait 5 minutes before entering a new trade on gold.

Hedging: Not allowed -- you cannot open buy and sell positions on gold at the same time.

Example:

You open your first position on XAU/USD at 10:15 AM. From this time, you are allowed to open only one more trade until 11:15 AM. Even if you close both trades early, the 1-hour timer starts from the time of your first entry (10:15 AM), not from the close time.

Also, after closing a position, you must wait 5 minutes before opening the next one -- even if you are still within your 2-trade/hour limit.

What is the 5-Minute Rule in Trading?

Challenge Account

The 5-Minute Rule is not applied to the challenge Account.

Simulated Funded Account

The 5-Minute Rule states:

After closing a position --- whether it hits Stop Loss, Take Profit, or you close it manually --- you must wait 5 minutes before entering a new trade on the same pair.

Purpose of the Rule:

  • Prevents revenge trading.
  • Helps you reset mentally before jumping back in.
  • Encourages traders to reevaluate the setup rather than impulsively re-entering.

Example:

  • You take a buy trade on EUR/USD, and it hits your stop loss/take profit or you manually close it.
  • You must now wait 5 minutes before placing another position on EUR/USD.

Scalping Restriction -- Minimum Holding Time (More Than 5 Minutes)

To ensure fair trading practices, each trade must be held for more than 5 minutes.
Closing a trade at exactly 5 minutes is considered a violation.

Example 1 -- Rule Violated

  • Trade opened at 10:00:00
  • Trade closed at 10:05:00
  • Holding Time: 5 minutesViolation (not more than 5 minutes)

Example 2 -- Rule Respected

  • Trade opened at 10:00:00
  • Trade closed at 10:05:25
  • Holding Time: 5 minutes and 25 secondsAllowed

What are the maximum loss limits per trade on the Challenge Account and Simulated Funded Account?

Challenge Account

There are no maximum risk limits per trade or per asset class, allowing traders full flexibility in managing their risk per position.

Simulated Funded Account

Traders cannot risk more than 50% of their Daily Drawdown per trade and per asset class. Engaging in excessively risky trading practices violates the terms and will result in account termination.

In a day, you cannot lose more than 50% of the daily drawdown in a single trade or within one asset class.

Key Takeaways:

  • Do not risk more than 50% of your daily drawdown per trade.
  • Do not risk more than 50% of your daily drawdown across multiple trades in the same asset class.

Multiple Trades in the Same Asset Class on a Simulated Funded Account

Traders opening multiple trades in the same asset class within a short timeframe (e.g., several EUR/USD trades placed within seconds) will be reviewed for potential arbitrage behaviour.

If flagged, QuickFunded may request clarification or take enforcement action.

Can I hold trades over the weekend?

Yes, traders are allowed to hold positions over the weekend, but specific restrictions apply.

Positions that remain open over the weekend must be opened before Friday 17:00 GMT.

Between Friday 17:00 GMT and Monday 05:00 GMT, the following restrictions apply:

• No new positions may be opened
• Existing positions cannot be increased
• Traders may only manage or close existing trades

In addition, reduced weekend leverage limits apply to protect the program from market gaps:

Asset Class Weekend Leverage
Forex 3:1
Indices 3:1
Commodities 1:1
Cryptocurrencies 1:1

Normal trading conditions resume Monday at 05:00 GMT.

Can I conduct trading activities over the weekend?

Yes, trading activities are permitted over the weekend. This applies to both the challenge phase and the simulated funded account (only for cryptocurrencies).

Are there any requirements regarding trading consistency?

Yes. QuickFunded applies a consistency rule to ensure that traders demonstrate stable and disciplined trading behaviour.

The profit generated on your best trading day must not exceed 25% of your total net profit.

Example:

If your total profit is $4,000, the profit from your best trading day cannot exceed $1,000.

This rule helps ensure that trading performance is not based on a single oversized trade or unusually high-risk day.

In addition, QuickFunded monitors profit concentration by instrument:

• If profit concentration on a single instrument is below 70%, a minimum of 4 profitable trading days is required.
• If profit concentration on a single instrument is 70% or higher, the requirement increases to 8 profitable trading days.

Each counted trading day must generate at least 0.5% net profit.

These rules are designed to promote consistent trading strategies and responsible risk management.

Is there an inactivity policy for accounts?

Accounts are automatically closed following 30 days of inactivity. To maintain active status, ensure at least one trade is executed within every 30-day period.

What is the minimum number of trading days required?

During the Challenge Phase, traders must complete a minimum of 3 trading days to pass the evaluation.

A trading day is counted when at least one trade is opened and closed during that day.

Reaching the 5% profit target alone is not sufficient to pass the Challenge. Traders must also respect:

• the minimum trading days requirement (3 days)
• the daily drawdown limit (4%)
• the maximum drawdown limit (8%)
• all other program trading rules

Once these conditions are met, the account will be reviewed before progressing to the Funded Phase (SFA).

What is the duration of the challenge period?

The challenge must be completed within 60 days.
Traders must place at least one trade within the first 7 days of account registration to activate the account. After that, at least one trade must be executed every 30 days to maintain active status throughout the challenge period.

What is the 70% Recharge Rule?

The 70% Recharge Rule allows traders to continue their trading journey if their account is in drawdown but has not yet reached the stop-out level.

If the account is in negative performance and still active, the trader may choose to recharge the account by paying only 30% of the original challenge price, which represents a 70% discount.

This option allows the trader to restart the account under the same conditions without purchasing a completely new Challenge.

The recharge option is only available if:

• The account has not breached the stop-out limit
• The account is still active
• The trader is eligible under the QuickFunded program rules

If the account breaches the stop-out level, the recharge option is no longer available and the trader must purchase a new Challenge to continue.

When I will receive my Certificate?

You will receive your Certificate within 24 hours of passing the challenge.

What are the Documents needed for verification?

After you pass our evaluation process, you need to sign the contract of the Quick Funded Trader account, and to verify your identity, we need a valid passport, ID, or driver's license. A photo of yourself is also required for confirmation. This verification may take up to 24 hours.

Profit target and requirement to make a withdrawal?

There is no payout target but you must withdraw a minimum of $50. The payouts are processed within 2-5 business days (excluding weekends).

No open positions should be active at the time of the payout request and the account balance must be above the starting balance to be eligible to submit a payout request.

What is the profit split?

At Quick Funded, we offer an 80% profit split to our traders. This means you retain 80% of the profits generated from your trading activities.

When will I receive my first withdrawal?

Once a payout request is submitted, QuickFunded processes withdrawals within five (5) working days.

During this period, the company performs a performance and trading review to ensure that all activity complies with the program rules and risk management framework.

In certain cases, QuickFunded may request additional verification or a short interview to confirm the trader’s identity and trading strategy before approving the payout.

Once the review process is completed and the request is approved, the withdrawal will be processed using the available payout methods.

How frequently can I request withdrawals?

We offer on-demand payouts on funded accounts --- meaning you can request a withdrawal anytime once you've met the 30% Consistency Rule.

What are the available payout methods?

We offer bank wire transfers and USDC (USD Coin) for withdrawals. For USDC, we support the following networks:

  • Ethereum
  • Arbitrum
  • Polygon

Note- Minimum withdrawal amount should be $50 or above.

What is the profit target and how long does the withdrawal process take?

There is no profit target required for payouts; however, the minimum withdrawal amount is $50.

Payouts are processed within 2-5 business days (excluding weekends).

To be eligible for a payout:

  • Your account balance must be above the starting balance
  • You must have no open positions at the time of your payout request
