Rules checked on · Alpha Futures' payout policy · By helloweekends Editors

Alpha Futures payout rules pay you 90% of each withdrawal on every Qualified Account, the simulated funded account you get after passing. You can request up to four payouts a month. On Zero, Standard and Advanced each request needs five winning days of $200 or more and can take up to half your profit. On Direct you need to reach a withdrawal profit target and meet a 20% consistency rule.

Alpha pays these withdrawals from its own funds under its terms, and it can change or pause them. Nothing here is a promise of income.

Payout rules on every Alpha Futures plan

  • Split: 90/10 on every Qualified Account withdrawal. The live program pays 80%, and Alpha Prime pays 60% plus a salary.
  • Up to 4 requests a month on every plan.
  • Winning days. On Zero, Standard and Advanced, a winning day closes with $200 or more profit. You need five per request, and they do not have to be in a row.
  • The MLL does not move. Taking a payout leaves your maximum loss limit (MLL), the lowest your balance may go, where it was, so each withdrawal brings your balance closer to it.
  • Payment methods. ACH to US bank accounts, wire transfer (SWIFT), Wise and Rise, all paid in US dollars.

Payout rules by account

A consistency rule limits how much of your profit may come from one day. The withdrawal profit target on Direct is the profit you must reach before each request.

Zero and Standard

Every five winning days you can request up to 50% of your profit, capped by account size. The minimum request is $200 on Zero and $500 on Standard. A 40% consistency rule applies on both: no single day may be more than 40% of your profit.

Advanced

Advanced uses the same five winning days and the same 50% limit, but the minimum request is $1,000 and the cap is $15,000 on every size. The Advanced Qualified Account has no consistency rule.

Direct

Direct has no winning-day count. You can request whenever you reach the withdrawal profit target and meet the 20% consistency rule. The first target is higher than the ones after it: $3,000, then $2,000, on a 50K. Caps run from $1,000 on the 25K to $3,000 on the 150K.

First payout step by step

  1. Pass Zero, Standard or Advanced, or buy Direct. There is no activation fee; on Advanced this applies to accounts bought after July 8, 2026.
  2. Trade the Qualified Account without touching the MLL. On Zero, Standard and Direct, place no orders from 2 minutes before to 2 minutes after high-impact news.
  3. Zero, Standard and Advanced: collect five winning days of $200 or more. Direct: reach the first withdrawal profit target ($1,500, $3,000, $6,000 or $9,000 by size).
  4. Check consistency: 40% on Zero and Standard, 20% on Direct, none on Advanced.
  5. Request at least the minimum and no more than the cap (and, outside Direct, no more than 50% of profit).
  6. Choose ACH, wire, Wise or Rise. Alpha pays you 90% of the amount in US dollars.

Worked example: first payout on a 50K Standard account

On your Qualified Account you log five winning days of $200 or more, and your profit reaches $4,000. Your best day made $1,400, or 35% of the profit, inside the 40% rule. You can take up to half the profit, $2,000, which is under the $3,000 cap and above the $500 minimum. At 90/10, $1,800 is paid to you. Your balance drops from $54,000 to $52,000. The MLL stopped trailing at $50,000 when your end-of-day balance reached $52,000, and the payout does not move it, so you are now $2,000 above it.

Payout timing and conflicts

  • Alpha's homepage and FAQ say requests are processed in 48 business hours or less. Its Terms say payment is made within 3 business days, or up to 14 if extra verification is needed.
  • The Terms also mention "bi-weekly or on demand" requests, while the Payout Policy allows up to 4 a month.
  • The Direct 50K cap is $2,000 in the Direct overview, Payout Policy, Terms and homepage, but $1,500 in the Maximum Withdrawal Request article.

Live and Alpha Prime

Alpha can call a trader to live after five performance fees (paid withdrawals) on one Qualified Account, or at its discretion. The live program pays 80%, with daily withdrawals and no cap. Alpha Prime pays 60% plus a 12-month salary based on 50% of your simulated profits, up to $75,000.

Recent changes

Our log has no dated change to Alpha's payout rules. Two recent changes touch the path to a payout: from July 8, 2026, Advanced accounts pay no activation fee on passing (it was $149), and from July 27, 2026, you can hold 5 Standard Qualified Accounts instead of 3. All dated changes are in our log of prop firm rule changes. Drawdown, Daily Loss Guard and news rules are on the Alpha Futures rules page.

Know the riskAn Alpha Futures Qualified Account is simulated, and Alpha pays withdrawals from its own funds under its terms. Alpha can change or pause payouts, and most people who buy an evaluation do not pass it. Not investment advice.
