Day One Payout: How to Request Your First Withdrawal as a Funded Trader

January 22, 2026·5 min read

One of Day Trader Funding's biggest advantages: you can request a payout on your very first day as a funded trader. Here's exactly how it works.

The Payout Process

Once you pass your evaluation and activate your funded account ($99 activation fee), you can request a payout immediately — as long as you have a green day ($100+ net profit).

Payout Tiers

Your payout cap depends on your Green Day count, which resets if your account is breached:

How to Request

  1. Log into your Day Trader Funding dashboard
  2. Go to Payouts → Request Payout
  3. Enter the amount (must be within your tier cap)
  4. Your balance can't drop below starting balance + $100 after the payout
  5. Processing: same-day or next business day

4 Payout Slots Per Month

You get 4 payout requests per calendar month. They don't stack — use them or lose them. Plan your withdrawals strategically.

Pro Tips

Build up green days quickly to unlock higher tiers. The jump from Rookie ($1,000 cap on 100K) to Trader ($3,000 cap) happens at just 8 green days. That's achievable in under 2 weeks of consistent trading.
