How Payouts Work (Instant Standard)
Learn how payouts work for Instant Standard accounts, including requirements, buffer zone, and withdrawal rules.
Instant Standard accounts allow you to request payouts once all trading and account requirements are met.
Payouts are processed on a fixed cycle and are based on profits generated above the required buffer zone.

Understanding the Buffer Zone
A portion of your profit must remain in the account at all times. This is known as the buffer zone.
Account Size | Buffer (3%) |
100K | 3,000 |
50K | 1,500 |
25K | 750 |
You can only withdraw profits above this amount.

Account Size | 100,000 |
Total Profit | 4,000 |
Buffer (3%) | 3,000 |
Withdrawable Profit | 1,000 |
How Payouts Are Calculated
Payouts are based only on the withdrawable portion of profit.
Step | Calculation |
Step 1 | Calculate total profit |
Step 2 | Subtract buffer (3%) |
Step 3 | Apply profit split (80%) |
Example Calculation
