WHY TRADERS LEAVE APEX

Apex’s 100% split is real — but a payout comes with a checklist

On Apex, the headline 100% split sits behind 5 qualifying trading days, a minimum daily profit, a 50% consistency rule, a safety net, and a $500 minimum. Tradeify keeps the path short: meet your plan’s targets, request, and an approved payout processes in about 60 minutes.

  • 5 qualifying trading days
  • Minimum daily profit
  • 50% consistency rule
  • Safety net active
  • $500 minimum payout
  • Max 6 payouts per PA
  • Request payout
  • 60-min processing

REAL SWITCHERS

Why traders choose
Tradeify over Apex

From traders who made the switch.

  • Marcus T.
    Funded Trader · Switched from Apex

    "I spent 18 months on Apex waiting for payouts that kept getting delayed. Switched to Tradeify and got paid in 16 hours on my first request. No drama."

  • Alyssa K.
    CL Futures · Switched from Apex

    "Support response on Tradeify is a different universe. I had a payout question answered in 45 minutes. On Apex, I waited three days for the same type of question."

  • Chris L.
    Funded Trader · Switched from Apex

    "Failed my Apex eval three times on technicalities I didn't see coming. Passed Tradeify's on the first try. The rules are just clearer."

  • Jordan C.
    ES Futures · Switched from Apex

    "The consistency score on Apex killed two of my funded accounts. Tradeify has no consistency traps. Just trade within the rules and you keep your account."

  • David W.
    Funded Trader · Switched from Apex

    "I defended Apex in trading forums for two years. Then they changed the payout structure mid-quarter without notice and I lost a withdrawal I had planned around. Moved to Tradeify expecting a downgrade — better spreads, faster payouts, support that actually communicates. I don't refer people to Apex anymore."

  • Chris L.
    Funded Trader · Switched from Apex

    "The subscription model on Apex cost me more long-term than Tradeify's one-time fee. Math doesn't lie."

  • Rachel M.
    NQ Futures · Switched from Apex

    "Apex changed their drawdown rules after I started my challenge. That was the last straw. Tradeify publishes everything upfront and sticks to it."

  • David W.
    Funded Trader · Switched from Apex

    "Fair point: Apex's Trading Combine community is solid. But I'm here to get paid, not to socialize. Tradeify gets the money part right."

  • Alyssa K.
    CL Futures · Switched from Apex

    "Customer support at Apex took 4 days to respond when my account was flagged incorrectly. Tradeify had it resolved in two hours. When real money is involved, that response time matters."

QUESTIONS

Switching from Apex?
Start here.

Apex advertises a 100% profit split. What's the catch?

down angle icon

Apex pays 100% on your first $10K in payouts, then 90/10. The limit is how many times it applies: their accounts close permanently after six payouts, while Tradeify accounts keep paying out as long as you follow the rules.

Do I have to clear a "Safety Net" before I can withdraw?

down angle icon

On Tradeify's Select Daily path, you need profit above your buffer, then you can request the same day. Apex requires a balance above your drawdown plus $100, plus 5 qualifying days, a minimum daily profit, and a 50% consistency rule on every single request.

Does my funded account ever expire?

down angle icon

No, Tradeify's funded accounts keep paying out for as long as you follow the rules. Apex's close permanently after six payouts, so even a healthy, profitable account gets shut down once it hits that number.

Is there an extra fee to activate my funded account?

down angle icon

No, Tradeify's purchase price is the entire cost of getting funded. Apex charges a separate activation fee, never below $100 even during sales, on top of what you already paid for the evaluation.

Will my drawdown rule change once I'm funded?

down angle icon

No, the drawdown rule you passed under with Tradeify is the rule you keep once funded. Apex adds a new tiered Daily Loss Limit ($500 to $2,500) the moment you're funded, a rule you never had to trade around during evaluation.

Is Tradeify cheaper than Apex?

down angle icon

Yes on cost. Tradeify charges once, with no activation fee at any stage. Apex's activation fee, never below $100 even during sales, only appears after you've already paid to evaluate.

How fast do I get paid?

down angle icon

Tradeify reviews requests within 24-48 hours, seven days a week. Apex processes on business days only, and only once your balance clears their Safety Net requirement on top of the standard approval wait.

Can I run more than one funded account?

down angle icon

Yes, Tradeify allows up to 5, and none of them expire. Apex's accounts do, every one, after a fixed number of payouts, so scaling with Apex means constantly re-funding new accounts to keep going.

What if I fail my evaluation?

down angle icon

Tradeify lets you reset for $60 to $239 with no cap on how many times you try. With Apex, passing again means paying their activation fee all over, even on your fifth attempt.

What consistency rule do I follow once funded?

down angle icon

Tradeify's ends at evaluation, and Select drops it entirely once funded. Apex applies 50% on EOD accounts and 30% on intraday, right when you're funded and trying to get paid.

Which platforms can I use if I switch?

down angle icon

Tradeify runs on the same brokers as Apex, Tradovate, Rithmic, or WealthCharts, so there's nothing to relearn if you move your trading over.

I'm already on Apex. Do I have to give it up?

down angle icon

No, you can run a Tradeify account alongside your Apex account for as long as you want before deciding where to focus.

Important Disclaimers:

The materials and content provided by Tradeify Holdings, Corp. (“Tradeify”), whether on our website, through distributed documents, TradeifyTV, or other communications, are intended solely for educational and general informational purposes (the “Information”).  This Information should not be viewed as an offer or solicitation to buy or sell futures, futures-related products/derivatives, or any futures products of any kind, or otherwise constitute any type of trading or investment advice, recommendation or strategy, or an endorsement of any financial instruments, companies, or funds. Users are encouraged to do their own research, should not interpret such Information as personalized financial advice, and should consult with a qualified financial adviser before making any financial decisions.  The Information presented herein does not consider your personal financial situation, risk tolerance, or investment goals. The Information provided is not targeted at any specific jurisdiction and should not be used in any manner that would contravene local laws or regulations.

Hypothetical/Simulated Performance.  Hypothetical or simulated performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below. Unlike an actual performance record, simulated results do not represent actual trading. Also, because the trades have not actually been executed, the results may have under-or-over compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity.  No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown. In fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved by any particular trading program. One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk in actual trading. For example, the ability to withstand losses or to adhere to a particular trading program in spite of trading losses are material points which can also adversely affect actual trading results. There are numerous other factors related to the markets in general or to the implementation of any specific trading program which cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results and all of which can adversely affect actual trading results.

Trader Performance Statistics (August 2025 – July 2026, calculated as of 9 August 2026): Across Tradeify's Growth, Advanced and Select evaluation products, (a) 17.2% of evaluation accounts initiated were successfully completed and afforded the opportunity to advance to the Funded Level; (b) 40.3% of individual participants who initiated one or more evaluations advanced to the Funded Level in at least one of their evaluations - participants may purchase multiple evaluations and resets, and initiated a median of 3 each over the period; (c) 28.5% of individual participants at the Funded Level received a payout; and (d) 3.0% of individual participants trading in a Funded Account were called up to a Live Funded Account. The Funded Level includes both Funded Accounts and Live Funded Accounts.

Trade examples presented for compensation purposes are hypothetical and should not be expected to reflect live trading results. Simulated results do not necessarily imply future profits. The risk of loss in trading forex or commodity contracts can be substantial. You should therefore, carefully consider whether such trading is suitable for you in light of your financial condition.

Engaging in futures, forex, and other financial trading involves significant risk and is not appropriate for all investors. It is possible to lose the entire amount of your investment, or even more. Only use risk capital—money you can afford to lose without impacting your financial security or lifestyle. Trading should only be undertaken by individuals who have the necessary risk capital and fully understand the risks involved. Past trading results do not guarantee future performance. Tradeify Holdings, Corp. does not warrant the accuracy or completeness of the Information provided and is not responsible for any losses or damages resulting from reliance on this Information.  Certain investment products present heightened risks:

Security Futures.  Securities futures products are not suitable for all investors.  Supporting documentation is available upon request for all comparisons, recommendations, statistics or other technical data presented.  Past performance regarding securities futures (as applicable) is subject the following Risk Disclosure Statement for Security Futures Products.

Forex Futures.  The prices of forex futures contracts may be highly volatile and while generally liquid, there may be times (e.g., during market stress or outside of regular trading hours) when it is difficult to execute trades at desired prices.  Forex futures are traded on margin and present risks associated with the use of leverage – this enables an investor to control a large position with a relatively small amount of capital and may amplify gains, but may also magnify losses.

Virtual Currency Derivatives/Products. Virtual currency derivatives may experience significant price volatility and the initial margin for virtual currency derivatives may be set as a percentage of the value of a particular contract, which means that margin requirements for long positions can increase if the price of the contract rises.  Certain restrictions may be imposed on customer trading activity in virtual currency derivatives, such as requiring additional margin, imposing position limits, prohibiting naked shorting or prohibiting give-in transactions.  The rules of certain designated contract markets impose trading halts that may restrict a market participant's ability to exit a position during a period of high volatility.  Given the material characteristics of these products, including the lack of a centralized pricing source and the opaque nature of the virtual currency market, there currently is no widely accepted practice to verify the ownership and control of a virtual currency or the valuation attributed to a virtual currency.

Testimonials. Testimonials provided herein, as well as those presented via TrustPilot may not be representative of the experience of other Tradeify account holders and such testimonials are not indicative of, or a guarantee of, future performance or success.  No compensation has been provided in connection with such testimonials.
