How it works
From evaluation to a broker-backed funded account.
Most prop firms are the counterparty to their own traders and profit when those traders lose. VaultX funds the traders who pass, mirrors their trades to a real brokerage account, and earns when they earn.

The route
Step 1
Pick a route and a size
1 Step, 1 Step Pro, 2 Step, 2 Step Prime, 2 Step Pro or 3 Step, from $2,500 to $100,000. Pay by card, UPI or crypto. Your MetaTrader 5 login arrives within minutes.
Step 2
Pass the evaluation
Hit the profit target for each phase on closed trades, log the required number of profitable days, and never touch the daily or maximum loss limit. No time limit on any phase.
Step 3
Verify who you are
A government ID and a liveness selfie, checked in about 24 hours. After Phase 1 on multi-phase routes, after the challenge on 1 Step.
Step 4
Clear the review
A person reads the whole evaluation record for prohibited practices and ownership. It normally clears the same day, and the funded login is issued right after.
Step 5
Trade VaultX Live
Your funded account starts at 10% of the evaluation size with no daily loss limit, no target and no minimum days, only a static maximum loss limit on the funded balance. Every trade is mirrored to a real brokerage account held by VaultX.
Step 6
Get paid, then grow
Keep 80% of the profit from the first dollar. Request payouts daily, several times a day, from $20. Clear a two-month cycle and the account doubles, up to eight times its starting size.
VaultX Live
Your funded trades reach the real market through a brokerage account VaultX holds and risks. Our share of the profit is our revenue, which is why the rules stay where they are published and payouts are not a negotiation.
- No hidden consistency rule
- No surprise breaches: every limit has a number and a log
- Daily payout windows, $20 minimum
The usual model
A firm that keeps every trade in-house is the other side of each position. Its income is its traders' losses, so opaque rules, trailing drawdowns that quietly move, and slow payouts are features of the model, not accidents.
We built the evaluation the opposite way: simulated so it stays cheap, and funded so the firm's money is on the line next to the trader's skill.
Straight answers
- Is the evaluation also on a real broker account?
- No. Evaluations run on simulated accounts fed by live market prices. That keeps fees low and lets us judge the trading without market impact. Funded accounts are the ones mirrored to a real brokerage account.
- How does VaultX make money?
- Two ways: evaluation fees, and our share of the profit funded traders make. We do not run a book against our traders, so we never profit when you lose.
- Does mirroring slow my fills?
- No. Your funded account is a normal account on the platform. The mirror copies your trades to our brokerage account; nothing sits between you and execution.
- Can I verify that my trades were mirrored?
- Yes. Ask support for a copy report on any funded account and you get the matched trades on both sides.
