Contract limits and daily loss limits scale automatically based on total account balance, with personalized limits set by risk managers.
Scaling triggers are cumulative – once you reach a higher tier, you keep those limits even if your balance fluctuates.
Tradeify review
Tradeify is a futures prop firm run by Tradeify Holdings, Corp. from Boca Raton, Florida. It sells three plans, all as one time purchases with no activation fee. Growth costs $99 to $369, can be passed in one day and carries a daily loss limit, with a 35% consistency rule on funded payouts. Select costs $109 to $369 for 25K to 150K, has no daily loss limit in the evaluation and a 40% consistency rule that means at least three trading days. After passing, Select traders choose Flex, with payouts every five winning days, or Daily, with daily payouts above a buffer. A limited 300K Select costs $349. Lightning skips the evaluation for $345 to $796 and applies a consistency rule that rises from 20% to 30%. Every account uses an end of day trailing drawdown that locks at the starting balance plus $100. Simulated funded accounts pay 90/10, and traders can hold five at once. Three approved payouts qualify a trader for Tradeify Elite live accounts, which pay 80/20. Tradovate, Rithmic and WealthCharts are available at the same price, and positions must be closed by 4:45 pm ET.
Suits
Futures day traders who want end of day drawdown on every plan, one time fees and the option of daily payouts.
Less suited to
You want large single withdrawals early on, need to hold positions overnight, or live in a restricted country such as Turkey or Pakistan.
Pros
- Every account uses an end of day trailing drawdown that locks at the starting balance plus $100.
- All plans are one time purchases with no activation fee and no subscription.
- Select Daily allows payout requests every day once the buffer is cleared, and Select Flex has no funded daily loss limit.
- Bots are allowed when the trader owns the strategy, and news trading is unrestricted.
- Tradovate, Rithmic and WealthCharts cost the same, giving access to NinjaTrader, TradingView, Quantower and Sierra Chart.
Cons
- Payout caps are modest, such as $1,250 per day on a 50K Select Daily account.
- Lightning needs a profit goal of $1,500 to $9,000 before the first payout and caps it at $1,000 to $3,000.
- Growth applies a 35% consistency rule and a minimum balance to every funded payout.
- Only five simulated funded accounts can be held at once, and all sales are final.
- Positions must be closed by 4:45 pm ET, and the restricted list covers more than 60 countries and regions.
Verdict
Tradeify gives traders a clear choice of risk structure. Every plan uses an end of day trailing drawdown that locks at the starting balance plus $100, fees are one time with no activation charge, and the help centre sets out payout caps, buffers and consistency rules plan by plan. Select Daily allows a payout request on any day once its buffer is cleared, and Select Flex removes the daily loss limit entirely for funded traders.
The trade offs sit in the caps. Select Daily pays at most twice the profit made since the last request, capped at $600 to $2,500, and Select Flex pays up to half of profit, capped at $1,250 to $4,500 for accounts bought after 1 September 2026. Lightning needs a full profit goal of $1,500 to $9,000 before the first request and then limits it to $1,000 to $3,000. Growth adds a 35% consistency rule and a minimum balance before each payout.
Tradeify publishes its own statistics: between August 2025 and July 2026, 17.2% of evaluation accounts on Growth, Advanced and Select were completed, and 28.5% of participants who reached the funded level received a payout. Automated strategies are allowed when the trader owns them, news trading is unrestricted, and the three broker options cost the same. Positions must be flat by 4:45 pm ET, and the restricted list includes Turkey, Pakistan, Vietnam and Malaysia.
Tradeify suits futures day traders who want end of day drawdown on every account and the option of frequent payouts. It is less suited to traders who want large single withdrawals early on, or who live in a restricted country.

Questions about Tradeify
How much does Tradeify cost?
All plans are one time purchases with no activation fee. Growth evaluations cost $99 to $369, Select evaluations $109 to $369, or $135 to $459 with the 50% consistency add on, and the limited Select 300K costs $349. Lightning funded accounts, which skip the evaluation, cost $345 to $796. Resets are available on Growth and Select, and promotional codes often reduce the list price.
What drawdown does Tradeify use?
Every Tradeify account uses an end of day trailing drawdown. The limit follows the highest end of day balance and updates only at the close, but it is enforced in real time, so touching it with an open position fails the account. Once the end of day balance exceeds the drawdown by $100, the limit locks at the starting balance plus $100, for example $50,100 on a 50K account.
What is the difference between Select Flex and Select Daily?
After passing a Select evaluation, the trader chooses a payout policy for that account. Flex has no daily loss limit and pays up to 50% of profit every five winning days, capped at $1,250 to $4,500. Daily has a daily loss limit and a buffer of $1,100 to $3,600, then allows a request each day of up to twice the profit since the last payout, capped at $600 to $2,500.
What is the Tradeify profit split?
Simulated funded accounts on Growth, Select and Lightning pay 90% to the trader and 10% to Tradeify. Traders who receive three approved payouts qualify for Tradeify Elite, the live programme, where the split is 80/20. Payouts are sent through Rise to a bank account or crypto wallet, with Plane Payouts as an alternative, and Growth payments are issued within 24 to 48 hours of approval.
Does Tradeify have a consistency rule?
It depends on the plan. Growth has none in the evaluation but a 35% rule for funded payouts. Select applies 40% in the evaluation, or 50% with a paid add on, and none once funded. Lightning has no evaluation and applies its rule to payouts, starting at 20% for the first payout, moving to 25% for the second and 30% for every payout after that.
Can I use bots or trade news at Tradeify?
News trading is allowed with no restrictions, although funded accounts have a microscalping rule requiring most trades and most profit to come from positions held longer than 10 seconds. Bots and algorithms are allowed if the trader can prove sole ownership, and Tradeify may ask for a live video of the code being enabled. Copying trades in the same direction across a trader's own accounts is permitted.
