The short answer
Choose one of five products, then your account size, then your trading platform, and pay by card or crypto. Buying needs no identity verification. On the instant products a short identity check is completed before your account is activated, and on the evaluations you begin straight away, so you are trading soon after your payment clears.
Buying a UZO account takes a few minutes and four decisions. This guide walks you through each one, so you know exactly what to expect before you reach the checkout.
Step 1: choose your product
UZO offers five products, each suited to a different style and starting point. The evaluation products (One Step and Two Step) ask you to reach a profit target first. The instant products skip the evaluation and place you straight onto a funded simulated account.
Product | Starts from | Profit target | Phases |
One Step | $5K | 6% | 1 |
Two Step | $10K | 10% (6% then 4%) | 2 |
Instant | up to $1M | None | 0 |
Instant Pro | up to $1M | None | 0 |
Instant 24h | up to $200K | 3% within 24h | 0 |
Should you be unsure which one fits you, the product pages set out the rules of each in full.
Step 2: choose your account size
Once you have a product, pick the starting balance you would like to trade. One Step starts from $5K, Two Step from $10K, and the instant products scale up to $1M. Larger sizes carry a higher fee, and the exact price for each size is shown live on the product page as you select it.
The split is the same whichever size you choose: 90% to you, 10% to UZO, on every product and at every account size. A larger account never means a smaller share of what you make.
Step 3: choose your platform
Next, choose the trading platform your account will run on. UZO supports two.
MetaTrader 5, the industry standard for charting, automation and Expert Advisors (not available to users in the United States)
TradeLocker, a modern browser and mobile platform
Your platform choice is tied to the account you are buying, so pick the one you are most comfortable with. Leverage is 1:100 across both platforms.
Step 4: pay and confirm
At checkout you may pay by card or crypto. Buying needs no identity verification. Once your payment is confirmed, your order is processed automatically, so there is no manual review to wait on.
Step 5: verify where needed, then start
After your payment clears, your account is set up and your login details are sent to you. How quickly you begin depends on the route you chose.
Evaluations (One Step, Two Step). You can log in and place your first trade within minutes. Identity verification is completed later, right after you pass, before your funded account is activated.
Instant products (Instant, Instant Pro, Instant 24h). You complete a short identity verification first, and your funded account is activated as soon as it clears.
Your fee comes back
On One Step and Two Step, your evaluation fee is returned in full with your third reward, so a passing account effectively costs you nothing.
What happens after you buy
If you bought an evaluation product (One Step or Two Step), you trade to reach the profit target while staying within the drawdown rules. There is no minimum number of trading days on either, and no time limit, so there is never any pressure to rush. Once you pass, you complete identity verification, and your funded simulated account is activated.
If you bought an instant product (Instant, Instant Pro or Instant 24h), you complete identity verification straight after purchase, and your funded simulated account is activated as soon as it clears. From your first login you are on a funded simulated account, with no target to clear before you can earn. You then trade within your drawdown rules and request withdrawals and rewards, within the limits shown on your dashboard.
Verify in your own name
Identity verification is completed by you, in your own name. You must be the person shown on your identity documents, and the same person throughout. Rewards are later paid only to a bank account or crypto wallet held in your own name, matching your verified identity, so it is worth using the same name across your account, your verification and your reward details from the very start. A name mismatch simply holds the reward until it is put right.
