Rules checked on · Phidias rules page · By helloweekends Editors

Phidias payout rules differ by account family. Fundamental pays an 80/20 split every 10 qualifying trading days. Premium pays every 5, with a split that starts at 75% and reaches 100% from the fifth payout. Express to Live pays one fixed bonus when you reach the profit target again on the CASH account and switch to a LIVE account. The minimum payout is $500.

The CASH account, Phidias's funded stage, is simulated. Phidias pays payouts from its own funds under its terms and can change or pause them. Nothing here is a promise of income.

Payout rules on every Phidias account

  • Paid to the Phidias Wallet. Payouts are credited to your Phidias Wallet. You withdraw to a bank through Rise (RISEWORKS.io), or use the funds to buy evaluations or fund a LIVE account.
  • Minimum $500 on Fundamental, Premium and LIVE requests.
  • Qualifying day. A trading day with PnL (profit and loss) of at least $150 on a 50K, $200 on a 100K or $250 on a 150K.
  • Threshold and floor. Your balance must be above a withdrawal threshold to request, and after the payout it may not fall below the starting balance plus $100.
  • 30% consistency on CASH accounts. No single day may be more than 30% of your profit, measured over at least four days. Express to Live has no consistency rule.

Fundamental and Premium payouts

On Premium the split rises with each payout: 75% on the first, 80% on the second, 85% on the third, 90% on the fourth and 100% from the fifth. Fundamental stays at 80/20.

Express to Live: one bonus, then LIVE

Express to Live has no payout cycle on the CASH account and no minimum days. When you reach the profit target again on the CASH account, you click "Switch to Live". Phidias pays a fixed bonus, adds a LIVE credit and converts the account to a LIVE account, which Phidias says clears through Dorman Trading. LIVE accounts pay 80/20 daily, with a $500 minimum and no maximum.

First payout step by step

For Fundamental and Premium, using the 50K figures:

  1. Pass the evaluation: at least 3 trading days on Fundamental, 1 on Premium.
  2. Start the CASH account. On Premium it is funded one trading day after you pass.
  3. Log qualifying days with PnL of $150 or more: 10 on Fundamental, 5 on Premium.
  4. Get your balance above the $52,600 threshold.
  5. Check the 30% consistency rule.
  6. Request between $500 and $2,000 without taking the balance below $50,100.
  7. The payout lands in your Phidias Wallet; withdraw it to your bank through Rise.

Worked example: first payout on a 50K Premium

After five qualifying days your balance is $53,600, a profit of $3,600. Your best day made $900, which is 25% of the profit, inside the 30% rule. The balance is above the $52,600 threshold. Taking the $2,000 cycle maximum leaves $51,600, above the $50,100 floor, so you can request the full $2,000. On the first Premium payout your share is 75%, so $1,500 is yours. From the fifth payout on, the same request would pay you all $2,000.

Moving to LIVE from Fundamental or Premium

The move is at Phidias's discretion. The rules page puts eligibility at 5 payouts or $100,000 in cumulative profits across all your accounts; the old bar of 3 payouts or $75,000 is retired. The Phidias 2.0 page says something different: a CASH account stays active until it reaches $100,000 in cumulative payouts.
