Before you buy

Three answers save most people money: the fee is refundable only before your first trade, the daily drawdown includes floating losses, and crypto payments must go on the exact network shown at checkout. Details: paying with crypto and daily drawdown.

After you pass

You trade a funded account with an 80/20 split by default. The first reward opens 30 days after your first funded trade and then every 14 days; close all trades before requesting. More: payouts explained.

Questions traders ask

Is BrightFunded legit?

BrightFunded publishes its rules and payout terms in a help centre, sells one-time challenges and pays funded traders in USDC or euros. It describes all accounts as simulated. As with any prop firm, read the terms and start with a size you can afford to lose.

Is the BrightFunded fee refundable?

Only if you have not placed a trade on the account and ask within 30 days of purchase, through live chat. Refunds are processed within 48 hours.

Is the fee monthly?

No. The challenge fee is a one-time payment. BrightFunded lists no monthly or annual subscription once you are funded.

How long do I have to pass?

There is no time limit. You need at least 5 trading days per phase; a day counts when a trade stays open for at least 60 seconds.

What is the daily drawdown?

3% on 1-Step, 4% on 2-Step Bright and 5% on 2-Step Classic, from the higher of equity or balance at the start of the day.

When can I withdraw profit?

Your first reward opens 30 days after your first funded trade, then every 14 days. There is no minimum amount.

Which platforms can I use?

MT5, cTrader and DXtrade. You choose at checkout and can switch in the dashboard before trading.

Can I use an EA or copy trading?

BrightFunded bans automated tools that trade at superhuman speed, grid trading, arbitrage, tick scalping, HFT and coordinated multi-account trading. Ordinary EAs must stay clear of that list.

Can I hold trades over the weekend?

We did not find a weekend-holding ban in BrightFunded's rule articles on 31 October 2026; check the trading rules for your plan before you hold. Weekend gaps can jump past your stop, so size those trades carefully.

Can I trade news?

Yes during the evaluation. On funded accounts, profit from trades placed 5 minutes either side of high-impact news is deducted, except trades opened 48 hours or more before.
