14 published rules can delay, reduce or void a payout.
90% to the trader.
The firm does not publish when a first payout can be requested.
The firm publishes no payout fee policy either way.
4.5 from 4,723 reviews, the company solicits reviews through a paid subscription.
Time to the first payout and Who pays to move the money score zero because the firm publishes nothing we could read. Nothing is filled in with a guess.
This score is about getting paid, not about trading rules. It is never averaged into the Freedom Score: a firm can have the most generous rules on the board and still be the hardest place to get money out of.

Be aware
Of the 14 payout conditions Tradeify publishes, these can cost you money or your account.
- Can take profit you already madeProhibited trading practices forfeit profits
Opposing positions, hedging across accounts, microscalping, non-market prices, manipulative and high-frequency trading can void profits whether or not already requested.
Profit you have already made is taken back rather than paid.

“Any breach of this Section 6.7 will result in every account involved in the breach being placed in violation status, and in forfeiture of any profits generated during the period of the violation, whether or not those profits have been requested for payout.”
Funded trader agreement - Left to the firm's discretionA funded account is simulated
Funded accounts are simulated. Lightning, Growth, Select Flex and Select Daily are all 'Simulated Funded Accounts' that pay real money from simulated profits. A trader switches to real live capital only when Tradeify moves them to a Tradeify Elite Live account, which is at Tradeify's sole discretion and is mandatory once selected. Minimum thresholds for consideration are 3 payouts on a single account, or 10 total payouts since the last live transition. On transition all sim accounts close, no sim profit carries over, and each Elite Live account starts at a $0 balance.
You are paid on results in a simulator, not on trades placed in the market.

“A trader becomes eligible to be considered for a Tradeify Elite Live account once they meet one of the following minimum thresholds: 3 payouts on a single account, or 10 total payouts since the last live transition across all plan types”

The evidence
everything above, with the wording it came fromCaps on a single payout
Hard per-request caps by account size and payout number. Lightning: $1,000 / $2,000 / $2,500 / $3,000 for payouts 1-3 on 25K/50K/100K/150K, rising to $1,000 / $2,500 / $3,000 / $3,500 from payout 4 onward. Growth: payout 1 $1,000-$2,500, rising to $1,000-$5,000 at payout 4+. Select Flex: up to 50% of total profits capped at $1,250 / $3,000 / $4,000 / $5,000. Select Daily: up to 2x profit earned since the last request, capped at $600 / $1,000 / $1,500 / $2,500.

“The maximum payout is the most you can withdraw per payout request, based on your account size and payout number. These are hard caps — even if you have earned more profit (for example, the $9,000 Payout 1 Profit Goal on a $150K account), you can only withdraw up to the amount shown for that payout number; the remaining profit stays in your account for future payouts.”
