Why it matters: One of the longest-running names in futures funding. The structured Trader Career Path® is built for traders who want to start small and scale, rather than gamble on a single large account.
💸 Withdrawals & Fees
Getting paid
FrequencyWeekly
Minimum$100+
Extra targets to withdrawNone
Payout methodsBank · crypto
Activation feeNone upfront
Why it matters: There are no upfront activation fees — the fee is deducted from your profits on your first withdrawal, so you only pay once you're actually earning.
🧭 Programs

TCP scalingUp to $400K, fixed drawdown
TCP from$60 / month

High account caps and aggressive promo pricing. More accounts allowed, but trailing drawdown is stricter than TCP's fixed model.

🎯 Consistency Rules & Evaluation by Track
📘 Trader Career Path® (scale-up)
A progression ladder: prove yourself on a $25K virtual account, advance to LiveSim®/Live, then climb to $50K → $100K → $200K → up to $400K by withdrawing each step's profit target. 10-day minimum, EOD trailing drawdown, follow the ladder. From $150/mo.
⚡ Gauntlet Mini™ (single-phase)
A faster, one-step evaluation. Pick $50K–$200K, hit the profit goal under the same trailing-drawdown and daily-loss rules, trade 10 days, and move straight to a funded account at your selected size. From $170/mo.
💵 Funded (Live) account rules
After passing you trade firm capital at an 80% profit split. Most funded traders run on LiveSim® first (the firm discloses 94.77% traded LiveSim, 5.23% Live in 2025). Keep respecting the daily loss limit and trailing drawdown — funded accounts can still be failed.
🏦 Consistency & withdrawals
Withdraw weekly from $100+, with no extra profit target required to cash out, and crypto payouts available. A consistency rule prevents one outlier day from carrying your whole pass — spread your gains across sessions. Exact % is set in your plan terms, not published site-wide.
💵 Subscription Fees, Commissions & Costs
💵 Subscription Fees, Commissions & Costs
Evaluations are billed monthly until you pass: TCP from $150/mo ($25K) and Gauntlet Mini from $170/mo ($50K). You can reset a failed evaluation by re-billing rather than buying fresh. Cancel anytime once funded.
🧾 One-time $139 activation fee
There is no upfront activation fee. The one-time $139 is deducted only from your first successful withdrawal — it covers account provisioning and platform access. You never pay it out of pocket before earning.
💹 Platform & commission costs
All platforms (NinjaTrader, Tradovate, TradingView, R|Trader Pro, Finamark) are free — no NT8 license to buy. Earn2Trade does not publish a single flat commission; round-turn fees follow exchange + clearing rates per platform.
Cost per $1K funded: TCP25 at $150/mo ≈ $6.00 / $1K on a $25K account. Topstep $50K ≈ $3.30/$1K and FTMO is forex-CFD (different model). Earn2Trade is mid-pack on price but unique in scaling one account to $400K.
🌍 Restricted Countries & Eligibility
🌍 Restricted Countries & Eligibility
Earn2Trade serves a global audience and operates separate flows for US and Non-US/MENA traders (the MENA site is run by Bahia Education Services, Dubai). The program is futures-only, so local rules on stocks/forex/CFDs are not a factor.
