In 30 seconds

Earliest first payout: about 16 days after you buy, if you pass at the first try on the fewest days the rules allow.
You can only withdraw profit above $26,000 (the first $1,000 of profit stays in the account as a buffer).
Each payout is capped: $1,250.
You keep 80% of what you withdraw, minus a 3.5% processing fee.
How often: Every 14 days.

Before your first payout

Pass the evaluation: reach the $1,500 profit target without hitting the $1,000 max loss.
Grow the balance above $26,000. That's the buffer: money below it can't be withdrawn.
Days needed: Every 14 days (account 14+ days old).
Consistency rule on payouts: your best day can't be more than 40% of your total profit. Example: if your best day is $1,000, you need at least $2,500 of total profit.
Profit needed: 4% profit above the initial balance.

How much you take home

Payout cap: $1,250.
Profit split: you keep 80% of what you withdraw.
The5ers Futures charges a 3.5% processing fee on each payout.

Payout frequency: Every 14 days.
Scaling: +5% balance and +1 mini every 10% profit, up to $500K.

What can cost you a payout

End-of-day trailing drawdown: the floor sits $1,000 below your highest end-of-day balance and moves up when you close a day at a new high (never down). Losses during the day only count at the close.
Breaking the consistency rule doesn't fail the account, but it blocks the payout until your profit is spread over more days.
