A legacy 3-Step Model help article exists (en/articles/9279479) but now returns HTTP 404, and the firm's current lineup (1-Step / 2-Step Standard / 2-Step Pro / Zero) does not list a purchasable 3-Step program. Likely retired/not currently sold — all rule fields UNVERIFIED.

Payouts & timing

Payout frequency
Trader-selectable reward cycle: Weekly (60% split) · Bi-Weekly (80%) · Monthly (100%) · On-Demand (90%). Approved payouts settle in the weekly "Tuesday Pay Day" window; intervals counted in calendar days.
First payout
Governed by the selected cycle (first request after the chosen interval elapses); On-Demand requires 35% consistency + 2% profit. No fixed first-payout day count published.
Minimum payout
Minimum withdrawal = 1% of initial account balance (including the firm's split). On-Demand minimum reward = 2% of Master account size. Firm markets "no withdrawal fees," though a ~$10 per-transaction fee / third-party processing costs are reported.
Payout speed
Published SLA: 24h for Rise & crypto, 48h for Wise, 3–5 business days for SWIFT; often 6–12h in practice once approved.
Time limit
