Payouts & Profit Splits
How are payouts calculated?
Entry and exit fills pay market-specific commissions, including losing trades. Eligible net profit is realized PnL minus trading commissions, plus or minus funding and adjustments, minus prior payouts. Open PnL never counts. The account’s trader share (95% Instant or 90% evaluation-funded) applies to your requested amount; commissions are not charged again at payout.

Start with eligible net realized profit
Performance payouts use closed trading results, not starting simulated capital or open PnL. The account ledger already records realized gains/losses, entry and exit commissions, funding, disclosed adjustments and prior payout reservations or payments.
A useful accounting explanation is: realized PnL − posted commissions ± funding and disclosed adjustments − prior payouts or reservations. Available performance profit is the positive eligible portion above the account's original balance. Do not deduct the same posted cost twice.
Example from trade to payment
Assume closed trades produce $1,200 gross realized PnL, entry/exit commissions total $80 and net funding costs $20. There are no prior payouts or other adjustments. Net profit is $1,100.
If the entire $1,100 is eligible and requested:
- Instant trader payment at 95%: $1,045; Perpify share: $55.
- Evaluation-funded trader payment at 90%: $990; Perpify share: $110.
The gross $1,100 is reserved from simulated balance. The wallet payment is the post-split trader amount. These are illustrative calculations, not promised earnings.
Checks beyond arithmetic
An active account must meet the published minimum and request conditions, have no open positions or pending orders, and no other payout in progress. Evaluation-funded accounts also need 40% best-day consistency. Instant Accounts have no consistency rule or separate daily loss limit, but still must stay within static maximum equity loss.
Evaluation profits, demo gains and simulated Own Capital PnL are not eligible funded payout profit. Selecting the wrong account can make otherwise correct arithmetic irrelevant.
Payouts affect risk capacity
A request reservation lowers the simulated balance while the original static breach threshold remains fixed. Even after a profitable run, withdrawing profit can leave less equity cushion. Review that remaining cushion before resuming trading.
Reconcile with history
Use closed trades and posted account history, not just chart markers or a PnL badge. If totals disagree, check partial fills, commissions, funding, previous reservations and the selected account. Send support the relevant account and payout references rather than guessing an adjustment.
