Payout policy

Profit split
100% of each approved payout on the EOD and Intraday Performance Accounts.
How often
A payout can be requested after every 5 qualifying trading days, which allows up to weekly payouts.
First payout
After 5 qualifying trading days in the Performance Account, each meeting the minimum daily profit for the account size and type.
Minimum withdrawal
$500 per request. The balance must stay above a safety net of the drawdown amount plus $100 over the starting balance, so a 50K account needs at least $52,600 to request.
  • No single profitable day may make up 50% or more of the profit since the last approved payout; the payout button stays unavailable until this is met.
  • Each Performance Account can receive at most six payouts, with a per-request cap by size and payout number; the account then closes.
  • US traders are paid by ACH direct deposit and traders outside the US through Plane to a local bank account in their country of residence.
  • Apex states that it reviews requests within 2 business days and sends approved funds within 3 to 4 business days, with most traders receiving them in 5 to 11 business days.
  • The general Payout Method Information page still describes an eight-day cycle with five $50 profit days; the newer EOD and Intraday payout pages use the five-qualifying-day rule recorded here.
  • Performance Accounts are simulated; Apex says it may invite consistent traders to a live account.

Scaling plan

Performance Accounts move through tiers based on the prior day's closing profit, which set both the contract limit and the daily loss limit for the next session.

  • 25K: 1 contract and $500 DLL below $1,000 profit, 2 contracts from $1,000, and a $1,250 DLL from $2,000.
  • 50K: 2 contracts and $1,000 DLL to start, 3 contracts from $1,500, 4 contracts and $2,000 DLL from $3,000, and a $3,000 DLL from $6,000.
  • 100K: 3 contracts and $1,750 DLL to start, rising to 6 contracts and a $3,500 DLL from $10,000 profit.
  • 150K: 4 contracts and $2,500 DLL to start, rising to 10 contracts and a $4,000 DLL from $10,000 profit.
  • If the balance falls back, the account moves down a tier but never below Level 1.
