Rewards & payouts
Performance-based rewards, explained plainly
A reward is a contractual payment from us for qualifying simulated trading performance. It is not a withdrawal of trading capital, because there is no customer capital in the account.
The basis
What a reward actually is
This distinction is the whole model, so we state it in full rather than burying it in the Terms.
The account balance is virtual
A simulated account labelled $100,000 contains virtual funds. You never own that balance, you cannot withdraw it, and it is not held for you anywhere.
Simulated profit is a measurement
Profit shown on an evaluation or funded simulated account measures how your decisions would have performed. It is not a market gain and it is not investment income.
The reward is contractual
Where you meet every programme rule, we pay you a percentage of qualifying simulated profit under the programme terms. The payment comes from the company, not from a trading account.
Nothing is guaranteed
Passing an evaluation does not guarantee a payout. Eligibility depends on the rules below being satisfied in full, including verification and conduct checks.

Eligibility
What must be true before a reward is paid
- Every programme rule has been satisfied for the whole period — profit target, daily loss limit, maximum drawdown, consistency, per-trade risk and minimum trading days.
- The account has not breached and is not under a compliance review.
- Identity verification is complete and the name on the verification matches the payout destination.
- No prohibited practice has been recorded against the trades that produced the profit. Trades nullified under the conduct rules do not count towards qualifying profit.
- There is no open payment dispute, chargeback or fraud investigation on the account.
- You are not resident in a jurisdiction on the restricted list at the time of the request.
- The qualifying profit is at or above the minimum reward threshold.
Process
How a request moves
- RequestedYou submit a reward request against a funded simulated account.
- VerificationIdentity and payout-destination checks run if they are not already complete.
- Compliance reviewConduct flags, if any, are reviewed by a person. A request can be placed on hold while this happens, and you will be told why.
- ApprovedThe request passes review and is queued for payment.
- ProcessingPayment is being sent to your verified destination.
- CompletedPayment has been sent, with a reference recorded on the request.
- RejectedThe request did not meet the rules. You get the specific reason and can raise a complaint.
Every status change is timestamped and visible to you in your account. The full contractual wording is in the Terms and Conditions. Rewards are never advertised as income, and Next Scale Funded Trading Technologies Ltd. makes no representation that any participant will earn a reward.
