Prop firm payouts: how traders actually get paid
A payout depends on eligibility, split, minimum request, caps and processing time. Here is what each verified card says.

Eligibility first
Qualifying days, consistency and buffers usually decide whether a request is accepted.
Split and caps
Your share of profit and any per-request cap determine how much reaches you.
Method and timing
Payment methods and processing windows vary by firm.
