Yes, FundedSeat pays, but not on the terms its homepage promises. Money demonstrably leaves the firm, and several traders documented dated payouts through mid September 2026. The problem is the banne…

Payout Policy

Profit withdrawal rules and schedules

Up to N/A Split

Payouts are requested daily and are available from the first day on a simulated funded account. Account reconciliation runs between 5:00 PM and 6:00 PM EST, and requests are submitted after it. Funds leave the account immediately on request and trading can continue while the request is reviewed. The firm states an average processing time of around five hours.

Withdrawals are handled through Rise Works, which supports bank transfer and cryptocurrency.

  • 1-Step Daily pays 90 percent and allows a request from day one. Each payout sits between a minimum and maximum tied to account size, from 250 to 500 dollars on the 25K up to 1,500 to 2,500 dollars on the 150K. An unwithdrawable buffer must be exceeded first, from 1,100 dollars on the 25K to 4,100 dollars on the 150K, and from the second payout onward a minimum profit must be made between requests.
  • 1-Step Sprint pays 90 percent, with daily requests from the second payout onward and a fixed payout amount per account size.
  • Instant Funded Direct pays 90 percent and allows a request from the first day, subject to reaching 5 percent of the initial account size in profit between requests and to the biggest trade rule.
  • Instant Funded Bolt pays 90 percent, with daily requests from the second payout onward and the same 5 percent profit requirement between requests.
  • 1-Step Daily Ultra pays 80 percent, allows unlimited requests per day from day one, sets a 250 dollar minimum with no maximum and applies no buffer. The drawdown threshold locks at starting balance plus 100 dollars after the first request, and withdrawing down to that level closes the account.

A payout request cannot be edited or cancelled once submitted, and it is denied if the account fails before the request is processed. Traders may be moved to a live account after four payouts on a single account or ten payouts since the last transition. On Daily Ultra the move happens only after 100,000 dollars has been withdrawn on that account.

Consistency Rules

Performance requirements to maintain your account

Must Follow

Consistency is applied per plan, and on several plans the threshold is chosen at checkout. The rule caps how much of total profit a single day may represent, calculated as total balance needed equals biggest daily profit divided by the consistency percentage.

  • 1-Step Daily: your most profitable day cannot account for more than 50.99 percent of total profits, a 50 percent rule with a 0.99 percent buffer that allows a pass in two trading days. A 35 percent consistency can be selected instead, in which case the most profitable day cannot exceed 35 percent.
  • 1-Step Sprint: no consistency rule applies during the evaluation, so the target can be reached in a single trading day. A 25 percent rule applies to the first payout only, after which daily requests are available.
  • 1-Step Daily Ultra: choose 26 percent or 35 percent at checkout. The 26 percent figure includes a 1 percent cushion and allows a pass in four days, while 35 percent allows a pass in three days with no cushion. The rule applies during the evaluation only and is cleared once.
  • Instant Funded Bolt: a 20 percent rule applies to the first payout only. No single day's profit may exceed 20 percent of total profits generated.
  • Instant Funded Direct: no day based consistency rule. Instead a biggest trade rule applies, under which no single trade may account for more than 15 percent of total profits generated since the last payout or starting balance at the time a new request is submitted.

For the biggest trade rule, trades on the same instrument or within the same group, such as the equity indices ES, NQ, YM and RTY and their micro equivalents, taken in the same direction within three minutes of each other are treated as one trade idea and combined.

Prop Trading Rules

Trading conditions and rules for prop accounts

0 Rules

FundedSeat runs futures evaluations and simulated funded accounts on CME, COMEX, NYMEX and CBOT products, and the same trading rules apply to both stages.

  • News trading is allowed. There are no restrictions around economic releases.
  • No overnight or weekend holding. All positions must be closed before 4:59 PM EST Monday through Thursday and before 3:59 PM EST on Friday. Anything still open is closed automatically at that time, which does not fail the account. Trading reopens at 6:00 PM EST Monday through Thursday and on Sunday evening. Swing trading and holding across multiple days are not possible.
  • Automated trading is prohibited. Bots, algorithmic systems and expert advisors are not permitted.
  • Copy trading is allowed between accounts you personally own and actively trade. Mirroring a third party signal, group trading and account management services are prohibited, and you remain responsible for every trade a copier places.
  • Microscalping is limited rather than banned. At least 50 percent of total profit must come from trades held longer than 10 seconds.
  • Prohibited strategies include gap trading, high frequency trading, hedging and opposite account trading, latency and long short arbitrage, toxic order flow, server spamming, and trading mini and micro contracts on the same instrument at the same time.
  • VPN use is not permitted during trading sessions. A VPS is allowed provided the session is first opened from your own connection.

Firm Rules

Guidelines and restrictions for funded accounts

0 Rules

Trading takes place in a simulated environment. Outside the drawdown maths, these are the conditions that close or restrict an account.

  • Breaching the end of day trailing drawdown fails the account. The daily loss limit, where a plan carries one, is a soft breach instead: hitting it pauses trading for the rest of the day and the account can resume next session.
  • Account allocation is capped. There is no limit on how many evaluations may be bought and traded at once, but a trader may hold a maximum of five funded accounts, of which at most three may be 150K or 50 percent consistency plans. Daily Ultra is counted separately, with up to two active accounts alongside the five regular funded accounts. A newly passed evaluation is held until allocation frees up.
  • Inactivity closes accounts. An evaluation account requires at least one trade every 20 calendar days. A funded account requires at least one trade per week, Monday through Friday, per account rather than per trader. Logging in or viewing statistics does not count. An account removed for inactivity cannot be reinstated.
  • Accounts must be traded by the account holder alone. Team or group trading, trading on someone else's behalf and shared devices all lead to disqualification and account closure.
  • Identity verification is required, and residency documentation may be requested where a trader's location is unclear.
  • All fees are non-refundable, including evaluation fees, resets, data fees and add-ons, once platform access or login credentials have been issued.
