Take Profit Trader’s payout policy is the firm’s headline feature as a prop firm: a funded PRO account can request a payout from day one, with no minimum number of profitable trading days and no waiting on a fixed payout window. This page covers the payout rule itself, the profit split and fee structure behind it, and one mechanic — confirmed by the firm’s own reply to a trader complaint — that the promotional copy doesn’t mention. The coupon code that gets you into a Test account in the first place is explained on its own page.
Take Profit Trader (TPT): prop trading built around daily payouts
Take Profit Trader is a proprietary trading firm — a prop trading business that funds futures traders through a paid evaluation rather than requiring them to risk personal capital, with up to five funded accounts per trader at once. The main benefit this structure offers over self-funded trading, by the firm’s own framing, is capped downside: a losing test costs at most the test fee, not a brokerage account’s full balance. It’s not a tool for avoiding the discipline trading requires — the risk rules still have to be followed, or the account is lost. Its pitch to futures traders centers on daily payouts and funded trading from day one, which is the main competitive edge it claims over firms with longer payout windows. None of this is financial or investment advice, and every figure below is pulled from takeprofittrader.com’s own pages, not a third-party analysis or a secondhand summary.
Take Profit Trader payout policy: how the payout rule works
A PRO account (simulated trading, real money out) withdraws under these terms, per the firm’s own account-state comparison:
- Day one. No minimum number of profitable days before the first withdrawal request.
- No payout window. Take Profit Trader’s own copy: “no waiting for some random ‘payout window.’”
- A buffer requirement in PRO, removed entirely in the optional PRO+ upgrade.
- No maximum withdrawal amount, in PRO or PRO+.
- Payment methods: Plaid to a US bank account, or PayPal or Wise, processed — per the firm’s FAQ — typically within one business day of the request.
This payout policy applies to PRO; Test (sim account) accounts don’t withdraw at all, since profits there exist only as proof the trader can pass the evaluation and funded stage. Take Profit Trader allows up to 5 funded accounts at once — the firm’s own stated limit — so a trader can build multiple funded positions across sizes rather than concentrating in one.
Profit split and fee by account: price comparison
| Feature | PRO | PRO+ |
|---|---|---|
| Profit split | 80/20 | 90/10 |
| Drawdown type | Intraday trailing | End of day trailing |
| Buffer requirement | Yes | None |
| Environment | Simulated (SIM) | Live, via Tradovate |
| Commissions | $4.50/$1.50 round-turn | Broker (Tradovate) rates |
PRO+ is optional, not automatic — a trader chooses to upgrade, and the trade-off is a better split and no buffer requirement in exchange for a live, exchange-routed account subject to the broker’s own order-routing rules and, per Take Profit Trader’s own statement, CME Rule 575 on disruptive trading practices (a breach of which can trigger a compliance warning, per the Trustpilot thread discussed below). The one-time $130 activation fee that moves a Test account to PRO is a separate price from this split-and-drawdown comparison — full detail, including scaling and position-size limits by account, is broken out by account size. This payout structure is the firm’s core value proposition relative to firms that make traders wait weeks for a first payout.
What the promotional copy doesn’t say: the PRO→PRO+ transition
A detailed Trustpilot review described being auto-promoted from PRO to PRO+ within two weeks of hitting the profit target, with existing PRO profits frozen as a safety margin for the new live account. Take Profit Trader’s own reply, not the reviewer’s framing, is the useful source here: “The $5,000 transferred acts as a necessary safety margin for live trading… Any PRO profits earned above that $5,000 threshold were fully available for you to withdraw prior to the transition.” Read plainly: on promotion to PRO+, a safety-margin amount is held back from existing PRO profits as collateral for the live account, and profits above that margin stay withdrawable before the move happens. This is a real reward-and-risk trade-off worth knowing before accepting a PRO+ upgrade, not a reason to assume bad faith — the firm’s compliance obligations as a live, exchange-routed account are the stated reason for the structure.
Frequently asked questions
How long does a Take Profit Trader payout actually take?
Per the firm’s own FAQ, typically within one business day of the request, through Plaid, PayPal or Wise.
Does the payout policy differ between PRO and PRO+?
The core promise — day one, no payout window, no maximum — is the same in both. What changes is the split (80/20 vs 90/10), the buffer requirement (required in PRO, removed in PRO+) and the drawdown type backing it.
Is there a consistency rule on withdrawals?
No. Take Profit Trader’s consistency rule applies to the Test phase only; PRO and PRO+ accounts carry no consistency rule on trading or on withdrawals.
What happens to my profit if I reset a Test account?
A reset doesn’t appear in the firm’s payout policy at all, since Test accounts don’t withdraw — resets affect only whether and when an account reaches PRO, up to 3 resets per account, per Take Profit Trader’s own comparison table.
Does Take Profit Trader require daily trading to keep payout eligibility?
No daily trading requirement is stated on the firm’s own pages reviewed for this site — the consistency rule, which does touch trading frequency and sizing, applies to Test only, not to a funded PRO or PRO+ account.
Can I verify these payout figures myself?
Yes — every figure on this page traces back to Take Profit Trader’s own FAQ, pricing widget and account-comparison table, listed as official sources, plus one third-party Trustpilot thread quoted directly with the firm’s reply alongside it. None of it is secondhand analysis or an affiliate’s paraphrase; Take Profit Trader’s own words are the source each time a claim is attributed to the firm. The same sourcing standard applies on the legitimacy page.
How does Take Profit Trader pay out compared to other prop firms?
This page doesn’t compare named competitors — see the review for Take Profit Trader’s own competitive framing against unnamed “other companies,” presented as the firm’s claim, not an independently verified ranking.
