# Funded trader agreement

The contract governing a simulated funded account: what the trader may do, how performance is measured, how payouts are calculated and on what grounds the arrangement can end.

GFN’s figure

A GFN funded account is simulated. Eligible traders may receive monetary payouts based on qualifying simulated performance, subject to the programme rules, the applicable virtual profit share of up to 90%, KYC/compliance checks and the Terms & Conditions.

In detail

## Funded trader agreement, explained

It is a separate document from the terms covering the evaluation purchase, and it is the one that determines whether a payout is owed. It generally restates that the account is simulated and that eligibility depends on compliance.

The clauses worth finding first are the payout conditions and the termination grounds, because they define the two outcomes the whole arrangement runs toward.

## Terms that come with it

Most rules only make sense next to the ones they interact with. These are the entries this one depends on.

- [Terms of service](https://getfundednow.com/glossary/terms-of-service) - The contract between a trader and a firm, covering purchases, account rules, payouts and termination. It governs everything the marketing pages summarise, and where a page and the terms disagree, the terms are what applies.
- [Funded account](https://getfundednow.com/glossary/funded-account) - The account a trader receives after passing an evaluation, or buys directly under an instant programme. At a simulated-funding firm it is a simulated account whose eligible gains can qualify for a real payout.
- [Virtual profit share](https://getfundednow.com/glossary/virtual-profit-share) - The compliant name for a prop firm's profit split: the share of virtual profits generated on a simulated funded account that is paid to the trader. The profits are simulated; the payout is real money.
- [Payout denial](https://getfundednow.com/glossary/payout-denial) - A refused payout request. The common causes are a breach recorded before the payout was approved, incomplete identity verification, a mismatch in the receiving account, or trading that broke a conduct rule.
- [Dispute resolution](https://getfundednow.com/glossary/dispute-resolution) - The process for settling a disagreement about a breach, a payout or an account decision. It starts with the firm's support channel and is governed by the terms the account was bought under.
