How prop firm payouts work: splits, timing, minimums and what can delay them

Payouts are calculated on closed, realised profit on the funded account after spreads, commissions and swaps. Floating profit on an open position is not payable until the position closes. The firm's share (20%) is taken from the same profit; nothing else is deducted.

VaultX opens payout requests multiple daily, with a $20 minimum per request. Many firms impose a 14 or 30 day first-payout wait and then a fixed cycle; a daily window means you decide the rhythm. Requests go through your dashboard and show their status at every step.

• Identity verified: a government ID and a liveness selfie, checked in about 24 hours. Done once, after the evaluation.
• The funded account is in good standing: no open breach, no review flag.
• The profit is realised, not floating.

The same rails the firm accepts for fees: card refunds are not used for profit, so payouts go out by crypto or bank transfer depending on your country, and the dashboard shows which. Support runs 24/7 live chat, email, phone and whatsapp at support@vaultxfunded.com if a transfer needs a hand.

• Unverified identity, or a name on the payout method that does not match the account holder.
• A compliance review triggered by trades that match a prohibited pattern. The review reads the whole record and tells you the outcome.
• Requesting below the minimum or while a previous request is still open.

Ask four questions: how often can I request, what is the minimum, how long from request to funds, and what exactly cancels a payout. A firm that answers all four in numbers is treating payouts as a product feature. One that answers in adjectives is not. Our prop firm checklist puts these alongside the rest.
