Payouts and money

# Profit split

The share of eligible gains paid to the trader, with the remainder kept by the firm. At a simulated-funding firm the gains being divided are virtual profits generated on a simulated account.

Also called: Profit share · Trader split

GFN’s figure

GFN's virtual profit share is 70% on Instant and 80% on the 1 Step and 2 Step, rising to 90% with the optional add-on at checkout. A 2 Step retake pays 60%.

- **Instant Virtual profit share**: 70%
- **1 Step Virtual profit share**: 80%, or 90% with the add-on
- **2 Step Virtual profit share**: 80%, or 90% with the add-on
- **2 Step retake Virtual profit share**: 60%

In detail

## Profit split, explained

Splits are quoted as "up to" more often than not, so the number that matters is the one attached to your account at checkout rather than the one on the homepage. Add-ons, programme type and retake status can all change it.

A higher split on a tighter account is not automatically better. A 90% share of profits from an account you breach in week two is worth less than 70% of an account you keep.

Worked example

$1,000 of eligible virtual profit on a 1 Step account pays $800 at the standard 80% share, or $900 with the add-on. The same $1,000 on Instant pays $700.

## 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.

- [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.
- [Profit share add-on](https://getfundednow.com/glossary/profit-share-add-on) - An optional purchase at checkout that raises the trader's share of virtual profits above the standard rate. It is paid up front, so it only pays for itself if the account reaches a payout.
- [Payout](https://getfundednow.com/glossary/payout) - A transfer of the trader's share of eligible virtual profits from a simulated funded account. Payouts are requested on an eligibility date, processed after checks, and paid to the verified account holder.
- [Payout cycle](https://getfundednow.com/glossary/payout-cycle) - The interval between payout eligibility dates on a funded account. It is usually counted in calendar days from a fixed starting event rather than in trading days or calendar months.
- [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.
