Does iFunds pay out?
Yes, iFunds demonstrably pays, and we confirmed it on the blockchain rather than taking the firm's word for it. The concern is not whether money has left but what the terms let the firm do to a winni…

Payout policy
Payouts at iFunds are on demand. There is no payout cycle and no waiting period, so a funded account can request its first withdrawal on day one, and there is no cap on how many requests can be made in a day or on the size of any single payout.
- The minimum withdrawal is $50 of total account profit, which comes to $25 for the trader at the standard split.
- Requests are processed within a few hours. If a payout is not processed within 24 hours on a business day, the trader is entitled to a further 10% of the amount, up to $1,000.
- All positions must be closed at the moment a request is submitted, because floating profit and loss would make the calculation inaccurate.
- New trades may be opened while a request is pending, but the request is declined if floating losses take the requested amount out of available equity.
- Profit may be left to accumulate in the account instead. There is no obligation to withdraw at any point, and no profit target to reach first.
- Payouts are sent to a cryptocurrency wallet. The trader is responsible for the accuracy of the wallet address and the blockchain network chosen, and the firm does not cover transfers lost to an incorrect address.
KYC verification must be complete before any payout is released. The firm reviews the account's trading activity on each request to confirm eligibility, and gives the reason by email where a request is declined. Profit produced through a forbidden trading practice does not qualify.
Profit share can also be applied to scaling instead of being withdrawn. Once an account has made $50 in total profit it can be moved up to either of the next two plans by covering the difference in plan cost, and any profit beyond that difference stays available for withdrawal rather than being reset.

Trading costs

- FXCommission free

- EnergyCommission free
- CryptoCommission free
iFunds charges no commission on any instrument. Every symbol in the contract specifications, across FX majors and minors, metals, spot and futures indices, energies and cryptocurrencies, is published at $0 commission.
Accounts are also swap free, so positions carried into the next session are not charged overnight financing.
The only cost of the programme is the one off participation fee paid for the plan itself, and no fee is charged when a funded account is opened or when a payout is requested.
Eligible accounts additionally earn cash back into the trading account for every lot closed. That cash back cannot be withdrawn, but it offsets trading costs and adds to the buffer above the maximum drawdown.
What iFunds lets you do
Across all 9 plans, as recorded programme by programme.
- News tradingAllowed on every plan
- Copy tradingAllowed on every plan
- Expert advisors (EAs)Allowed on every plan
- Weekend holdingAllowed on every plan
- Overnight holdingAllowed on every plan
- Stop lossNot required on any plan
iFunds places no restrictions on trading style beyond the account's maximum drawdown. The following are all listed as permitted on every funded plan:
- News trading
- Weekend holding and holding positions overnight
- Automated trading with the trader's own or any third party Expert Advisor
- Copy trading and trade copiers, whether copying from external accounts or between iFunds accounts
- Hedging
- Trading from multiple IP addresses, with no requirement to stay on one connection or in one location
There is no minimum or maximum number of trading days, no time limit on the account, and no maximum risk per trade. A trader may also run any number of funded accounts at the same time.
These permissions are conditional on the activity not being manipulative. The account agreement classes the following as forbidden trading practices:
- Strategies that exploit errors in the service, such as mispriced quotes or delays in price updates
- Trading on an external or slow data feed, and latency arbitrage or high frequency methods the firm's liquidity providers treat as abusive
- Deliberately opposite positions entered alone or in concert with others, including across connected accounts
- Gap trading, meaning opening positions when a major news, macroeconomic or earnings event is scheduled, or within two hours of a relevant market closing for two hours or longer
- Trading without market standard risk management, such as position sizes or trade counts far outside the trader's own norm
- Allowing a third party to trade the account, or trading someone else's account
Where the firm finds a forbidden practice it may strike the affected trades from the record, withhold the profit share, reduce leverage or close the account.
Consistency rules
iFunds does not apply a consistency rule. Funded accounts are not required to spread profit evenly across trading days, and no single day's gain is capped as a share of total profit. There is no profit target to reach and no minimum number of trading days, so a payout cannot be held back for having been earned too quickly or in too few trades.
The firm's stated reasoning is that a consistency requirement is unfair in a volatile market, and that traders should be able to change how they size positions as conditions change.
One general constraint still applies. The account agreement asks traders to follow market standard risk management, and treats positions that are substantially larger or smaller than the trader's own norm, or a trade count far outside it, as a forbidden trading practice rather than as a consistency breach.
Firm rules
An iFunds account is governed by a single loss rule. The maximum drawdown is static and measured against the account's initial balance, so the disqualification level is fixed at purchase and does not move up as the account grows. There is no daily loss limit at all.
The trader chooses that limit during registration, at no extra cost, and the choice sets the profit split:
- 10% maximum drawdown gives a 50% profit split
- 8% maximum drawdown gives a 60% profit split
- 7% maximum drawdown gives a 70% profit split
- 6% maximum drawdown gives an 80% profit split
Neither equity nor balance may touch the disqualification level at any moment. On a $10,000 account taken at the 10% setting that level is $9,000, and reaching it closes the account whatever profit had been banked beforehand.
The remaining account terms:
- Accounts are created and traded on MetaTrader 5, and credentials are issued immediately after purchase with no evaluation to pass first.
- A trader may hold any number of funded accounts at once, but two accounts cannot be merged into one.
- Accounts are for personal use only. Giving a third party access, or trading or managing an account for someone else, breaches the agreement.
- Identity verification must be completed before any profit share is paid out.
- The participation fee is fully refundable within 5 days of purchase as long as no trades have been placed. It is not refundable once the account has been traded, or where the account is closed for a rule breach.
- Once total profit reaches $50 the account can be scaled to either of the next two plans by paying the difference in plan cost, and the drawdown and split setting can be changed at that point. Accounts can be scaled repeatedly up to $500,000.
