S2F removes the part most traders hate: proving yourself on a test account before the real rules even start. One payment, no monthly fee, and you begin on a simulated funded account from day one — no profit target, no minimum days, no evaluation at all.
S2F at a glance
- One-time purchase — no recurring monthly cost
- Simulated funded account from your first trade; the funded rules are the only rules
- Payout path: 7 qualifying trading days ($200+ profit each), payouts every 7 days
- 25% daily consistency requirement, End-of-Day drawdown throughout
- No S2F-specific account cap or reset fees — the site-wide limit of 5 active funded accounts per household (all plans combined) applies

How the 25% consistency rule works
Simple math: your largest single day’s profit can’t exceed 25% of your total profit at the moment you request a payout. Largest day ÷ total profit — that’s the whole formula. The Help Center’s own example: a $1,000 best day against $4,000 total profit works out to exactly 25%, which passes. The rule stays in force for the life of the account, and after every approved payout the calculation resets from your new balance, so one big day early in a cycle does not follow you forever. Source.
How the drawdown works
Want to see the floor move day by day for your own numbers? Use the drawdown simulator: enter your closes and intraday highs and it shows where each model would breach.
How End-of-Day drawdown behaves: your highest end-of-day balance sets the reference, and the maximum loss limit trails it upward as the account grows — intraday swings don’t move it, only the session’s closing balance counts. Once your balance clears the initial trail level, the drawdown locks at your starting balance and stops moving. Close below the threshold and the account is breached.
| Account size | Max drawdown | Initial trailing balance | Locks at |
|---|---|---|---|
| $25,000 | $1,000 | $26,000 | $25,000 |
| $50,000 | $2,000 | $52,000 | $50,000 |
| $100,000 | $3,000 | $103,000 | $100,000 |
| $150,000 | $4,500 | $154,500 | $150,000 |
The scaling plan (funded accounts)
Funded accounts don’t start at full size. Your available contract limit scales with the simulated profit in the account, recalculated at the end of each session (never mid-day), until you unlock your plan’s maximum. It doesn’t apply during evaluation.
| Simulated profits | $25K | $50K | $100K | $150K |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| $0–$999 | 1 mini / 10 micros | 3 / 30 | 4 / 40 | 5 / 50 |
| $1,000–$1,499 | 2 / 20 | 3 / 30 | 4 / 40 | 5 / 50 |
| $1,500–$1,999 | 2 / 20 | 4 / 40 | 6 / 60 | 7 / 70 |
| $2,000–$2,999 | 3 / 30 (max) | 5 / 50 (max) | 7 / 70 | 10 / 100 |
| $3,000–$4,499 | — | — | 10 / 100 (max) | 12 / 120 |
| $4,500+ | — | — | — | 15 / 150 (max) |
Who picks S2F
Traders who know they can trade and would rather pay once to skip the audition. The structure is the most disciplined of the four plans — a week of qualifying days and daily consistency — because you’re trading funded rules from minute one. If you want looser rules and don’t mind an evaluation, look at Premier+.
Instant-funding shoppers usually also look at Tradeify — the dated plan-level breakdown is S2F vs Tradeify Lightning, with the firm-level view in Tradeify vs FFF and the honest best-of ranking.
Codes at checkout: FFF for the best current discount, or first50 for 50% off your first account plus a $250 bonus on your first payout. Prices below are standard; promos regularly cut them hard (Velocity has run at 80% off).
Want a monthly plan with bigger position room instead? Compare Velocity, Premier+, Prime, or see every rule side by side on the payout & trading rules page. Whichever you land on, the basics never change: 90/10 from the first dollar, no daily loss limit, instant payout approvals with money in your Rise account within hours, news trading allowed, and a $100K total payout cap per user.
Frequently asked questions
How much does S2F cost?
S2F is a one-time purchase with no monthly fee: $329 for the 25K account, $469 for 50K, $629 for 100K, and $734 for 150K. That single payment is the entire cost of entry; there is no billing cycle running while you trade, no activation fee later, and no evaluation to fail and rebuy. You are paying more up front than a first month of any FFF evaluation costs, and in exchange the price is fixed no matter how long you take to find your rhythm. That trade is the whole point of instant funding, and the evaluation vs instant funding guide runs the cost math for when it works in your favor. As with every FFF plan, the split once you are withdrawing is 90/10 from the first dollar, and there is no daily loss limit.
Is there really no evaluation on S2F?
Correct: no profit target and no minimum days to pass, because there is nothing to pass. You start on a simulated funded account from day one, trading the funded rules from your very first trade. The place the model asks for proof instead is the road to your first payout: seven qualifying days of $200 or more in profit, a 25% daily consistency requirement, and staying inside the End-of-Day drawdown. That is stricter than what evaluation graduates face, and deliberately so, since the firm never watched you pass a test. Once the payout rhythm is established, S2F behaves like any other funded FFF account: instant approvals, money in your Rise account within hours once verified, and 90/10 from the first dollar. If you are unsure whether skipping the test is worth the higher one-time price, the evaluation vs instant funding guide compares both routes honestly.
What does it take to get an S2F payout?
Seven qualifying trading days, each meaning a day you finish with at least $200 in closed profit, plus a 25% daily consistency requirement so no single day can dominate the record, all while staying inside the End-of-Day drawdown. Payouts then run on a seven-day cycle, with staged per-payout maximums that grow from $1,000 on early requests up to $3,500 by account size and payout number. Red days and flat days do not reset anything; they simply do not count toward the seven. The consistency math is worth internalizing early: at 25%, your total profit needs to be at least four times your best single day, which rewards a steady grind over one hero session. Approvals are instant once requirements are met, funds land within hours with Rise verification done, and every dollar pays out at the 90/10 split.
