The growth mechanic (every funded tier): while you maintain membership and your Rating holds the tier threshold, your funded capital grows by 10% of the tier floor every month , predictable, automatic, no requalification. Every tier reaches its ceiling in exactly 10 months of sustained Rating. (E.g. Junior's $25K grows $2,500/month to $50K; Pro's $100K grows $10,000/month to $200K.)

10.3 Frequently asked questions

"Is the free $10,000 real money I can withdraw?" No , it's a test-drive account. You build Rating with it and use it to earn by paying for Sessions and Rooms, but its standalone PnL is not withdrawable.

"What's the difference between the two Quality Scores?" The Meritix Quality Score (23 metrics) sets your monthly profit share on funded tiers. The Snap Quality Score (8 factors) sets your share on a Daily Funded Session. Rating is separate again , it unlocks tiers.

"How do I actually get paid?" Three ways money becomes withdrawable: Session profit shares, Room winnings, and funded-tier monthly settlements , all deposited to your Wallet, withdrawable after KYC.

"What's the fastest way to earn on the free tier?" Pay for a Daily Funded Session ($29.95) to trade a fully funded day, or enter a Room (from $7) to compete for a pool.

"Why was my payout share less than my profit?" Your share is your Quality Score applied to your profit. Concentration, oversized exposure, deep drawdown, or too few trades reduce it.

"Do losses on a funded account put me in debt?" No , funded capital is the house's; you're not personally liable for trading losses on it. A losing cycle simply means no positive share for that cycle.

10.4 Getting help / contacting support

  • Community & support: the Discord community is the fastest route , link your

Discord (7.4) and use the support channels.

  • What to include when you ask: your account/login, what you were doing, what you

expected, and what happened (with the time, since the platform runs on platform time). Screenshots help.

  • Response expectations: support aims to respond promptly; complex issues

(withdrawals, KYC) may take longer to investigate.
