What Stands Out

  • 100% payout split, flat — no cumulative cap that reduces your split over time (changed from the old $25K-cumulative-then-split model in a full 2026 platform relaunch)
  • No consistency rule during the evaluation itself, on either track
  • Up to weekly payouts (not biweekly, as it was before the relaunch)
  • Intraday Trail is far cheaper than EOD Trail at every size if you're comfortable monitoring real-time drawdown

Worth Knowing

  • Each account is capped at 6 lifetime payouts before it closes — the 100% split isn't unlimited, it's bounded by escalating per-payout dollar caps instead of a percentage cap
  • 50% consistency rule applies once you're funded (PA/live stage)
  • A "Safety Net" (drawdown limit + $100) must be held for the account's entire lifetime — only profit above it is payable
  • Activation fee is no longer published anywhere on Apex's public site as of Sept 2026 — you won't know the real number until checkout
  • Two separate evaluation tracks (EOD Trail, Intraday Trail) plus multiple platform options (Rithmic, Tradovate, WealthCharts) take some time to compare
  • $49 reset fee if you need to restart an evaluation

Frequently Asked Questions

How much of my profit do I keep at Apex?

100%, flat — Apex relaunched its platform in 2026 and dropped the old "100% up to $25K cumulative, then a split" model. The new limit isn't a split percentage: each account gets a maximum of 6 lifetime payouts, with escalating per-payout dollar caps by account size, and closes after the 6th.

How fast can I request a payout?

You're eligible for your first payout after 5 qualifying trading days once you're funded (PA stage) — each qualifying day must clear a minimum daily profit floor that scales with account size. Payouts run up to weekly (this was biweekly before the 2026 relaunch), with a $500 minimum withdrawal.

Is there a consistency rule?

None during the evaluation, on either track. Once you're funded, a 50% consistency rule applies — no single day can be 50%+ of your profit since your last payout.

What's the activation fee?

Unclear as of Sept 2026 — Apex no longer publishes an activation fee figure anywhere on its public site or help center. Confirm the real number at checkout before relying on any figure quoted elsewhere, including older figures on this page.
