The payout cycle on a timeline#
| When | What happens |
|---|---|
| Day 0 | Funded account issued; the clock starts |
| Day 5 | First request window opens |
| Payout 1 paid | The next window opens 5 days after this payout |
| Payout 2 paid | Same again: 5 days to the next window |
| Payout 3 paid | The account completes |
So an account can pay three times in roughly 15 days plus review time. Requesting as each window opens makes the most of the cycle, because each request is capped and the balance resets to the buffer after every payout.
What must be true when you request?#
- The window is open: at least 5 days since funding or since the last payout.
- The account is flat: no open positions and no pending orders.
- The balance is above the withdrawal buffer: starting size plus 4%. See withdrawal buffer.
- A payout wallet is set. Changing it has a 72-hour cooldown, so set it early.
- The trading and conduct rules were followed. There is no consistency check on funded payouts.
Can you trade while a payout is pending?
Trading on that account pauses while the request is reviewed and transferred, so the balance stays fixed. It resumes automatically after payment if the account has payouts left.
Payouts are sent in SOL to your wallet. The rules page has the full text, profit split covers the amount, and the payout calculator works out what a given balance pays. Prop firm payouts explained puts the whole process in one place.
Quick answers
- When can I request my first payout?
- Five days after your Fullport funded account is issued, provided the account is flat and above the withdrawal buffer. After that, each new request opens five days after the previous payout.
- Does trading stop while a payout is pending?
- Trading on that funded account pauses while the request is reviewed and transferred, so the balance stays fixed. It resumes after payment if the account has payouts remaining.
- How often do prop firms pay out?
- It varies by firm, so check the published cycle before you buy. Fullport's cycle is every 5 days, with up to three payouts per funded account, each paid 80% to you in SOL.
