Frequently Asked Questions

MasterFunders Account

To access a funded account, all traders must successfully complete our Evaluation process. Choose your desired account size and challenge from the list of our challenges and start your Evaluation. Upon successfully completing this process, you will qualify for a funded account and become a MasterTrader.

Each trader is permitted to have only one account. Within this account, you may engage in multiple challenges simultaneously, provided the combined balance does not exceed $400,000.

If you wish to open a new account for any reason, you must first contact us at support@masterfunders.com to request the closure of your existing account. This process must be completed before a new account can be initiated to ensure compliance with our one-account-per-trader policy.

You can trade multiple challenges at the same time but the maximum sum of the combined balances should not exceed $400,000. At the funded stage, we allow you to merge balances of successful challenges up to $400,000.

Yes, you can review all your trading information and challenge status at the Client Area section of the platform.

No, currently we do not offer 1-step challenges nor Instant Funding.

The evaluation starts the moment you successfully complete the payment of the fee.

Yes, the evaluation fee is refundable after you successfully complete our Evaluation process and pass Verification. Only exception is the 24 hour Speed Challenge, where if you pass the challenge instead of refunding the fee, you will get a free Core Challenge with the same initial balance.

In most account reviews, the procedure takes place automatically after the completion of the challenge. However, in some cases where additional time is needed it might take 1-2 business days.

The payouts are processed within 1-2 business days upon confirmation of the payout request. You can receive your profits by a regular bank wire transfer, Skrill or cryptocurrencies. MasterFunders doesn’t charge any commissions for Payouts. Whatever amount of profit you generate, you are entitled to withdraw your Profit Split. The default is 80% but if certain conditions are met, it can increase up to 90%. The minimum payout from commissions a MasterPartner can request is $50 (incl. transfer fees).

Depending on your country of residence, we have different range of payment options like credit/debit cards, bank transfers, mobile/online payments, mobile money, cash and prepaid cash cards, digital wallets, electronic funds transfers, cryptos etc.

Second Life is a feature that every trader can use once per month. How it works? If you lose a challenge in the second step (Qualifying phase), you can send an email to our support (support@masterfunders.com) and request your second life to get activated. When activated, the next challenge you will purchase within the same month, you will pass to the second step and continue where you left off. Important note! This second challenge needs to be equal or lower balance amount compared the one you previously failed.

Reset feature is a feature a trader can use only once. How it works? In your first challenge with MasterFunders during the first step, if you are below 25% of loss of your Maximum drawdown, you can send an email to support and ask to reset your balance and start over from the beginning.

Yes, there is a scaling plan. You can increase your initial balance by 25% every quarter to a maximum of 100%. In order to qualify for an increase, you need to perform a 10% profit target each quarter with a minimum of 4 payouts during that time and your account balance needs to be above the initial account balance (in profit) at the time of scale-up.

The minimum age to open an account and trade with MasterFunders is 18 years. However, if the laws of the trader’s country of origin stipulate a higher age limit for legal trading, those laws will be applied. Traders must meet the age requirement of their respective jurisdictions to participate.

Slippage is when your order isn’t precisely filled due to the absence of a matching order at that specific price point in the order book. As a result, your trade will be executed at the closest available price. Therefore, and since the conditions are simulating live market conditions; if you use higher lot sizes, the chances of slippage increases. Volatile market moments is another factor that increases the chances of slippage.

There is no max lot limit but we advise our traders to follow wise risk management practices and not get themselves over exposed in a single position.

No, all trading takes place in demo environment. Therefore, if you fail the challenge, you will not have to pay any money besides the initial fee you paid to purchase the challenge.

Maximum Loss is the maximum amount of loss that if reached the challenge is considered as failed.

For example, if you start a challenge with initial balance $100,000 and maximum loss allowed is 10% then your challenge balance should not go below $90,000 including realized/unrealized positions.
