Every UZO reward is capped by a published limit, and the limit rises each time a request is approved in full. Your cap is a fixed figure set by your product and your original account size, so you can read it off the table below before you place a single trade. Nothing here is discretionary, and nothing here is hidden.
This is the structure that lets us pay every approved reward in full, on schedule, at any scale. It is a sustainability rule rather than a penalty: it keeps the liquidity behind your reward predictable, which is precisely why yours arrives on time.
How the reward structure works
Five principles govern every reward on every UZO product.
Principle | What it means for you |
Your cap is set by your original account size | Caps are calculated on the size you bought, not on your current balance. Growing the balance does not move the cap, and a drawdown does not shrink it. |
There are four cap tiers | 1st, 2nd, 3rd, then 4th and beyond. Each tier is higher than the one before it. |
A tier advances only after a reward is approved in full | A partial or a declined request leaves you exactly where you were, free to request again at the same tier. |
Each reward counts only the profit since your last approved reward | That period is your reward segment. The segment resets each time you are paid. |
Profit above the cap stays in your balance, but is not carried forward | It continues to count as balance and keeps your account working. It does not become withdrawable in a later segment. |
The one line worth remembering
Trade consistently, request within your cap, get approved in full, and your limit climbs every single time.
What must be true before you request
Eligibility differs by product, because the products are built differently. Each condition below is visible on your dashboard, so you never have to guess where you stand.
Product | Before your first request | Consistency measure |
One Step | At least 1% in closed profit, measured on your original account size | 20% Best Day Rule |
Two Step | At least 1% in closed profit, measured on your original account size | 20% Best Day Rule |
Instant | 5 profitable trading days, each worth at least 0.5% | 20% Best Day Rule |
Instant Pro | 6 profitable trading days, each worth at least 0.5% | 20% Best Day Rule |
Instant 24h | At least 7 trades inside the 24 hour window | 15% Best Trade Rule |
Two further conditions apply everywhere. Every position must be closed when you request, since a reward is paid on realised profit rather than on an open position. And your identity must already be verified, a one-time check completed before your funded account goes live.
The 20% Best Day Rule asks that no single trading day accounts for more than 20% of the profit in your reward segment. On Instant 24h, where the whole account lives inside one session, the equivalent measure is the 15% Best Trade Rule: no single trade may carry more than 15% of the result. Neither rule breaches your account. They simply hold a request until your profit is spread the way a professional book spreads it.
Reward caps: One Step
The fast route to a funded account, with a 6% target and a single phase.

Reward caps: Two Step
The institutional standard, with a 6% and then a 4% target across two phases. Two phases are a better filter, so Two Step carries the highest caps in the range.
Account size | 1st reward | 2nd reward | 3rd reward | 4th reward and beyond |
$5K | $150 | $200 | $225 | $275 |
$10K | $175 | $250 | $325 | $425 |

$100K | $1,500 | $2,350 | $3,200 | $4,250 |
$200K | $2,850 | $4,000 | $5,250 | $7,000 |
$500K | $4,900 | $6,250 | $8,000 | $10,000 |
$1M | $5,000 | $7,000 | $9,000 | $12,000 |
Reward caps: Instant
Funded from the outset, with no evaluation to clear. Tighter limits and a longer eligibility run are what make the immediate funding possible.
Account size | 1st reward | 2nd reward | 3rd reward | 4th reward and beyond |
$5K | $125 | $150 | $175 | $200 |
$10K | $125 | $175 | $225 | $300 |
$25K | $325 | $425 | $550 | $700 |
$50K | $650 | $850 | $1,100 | $1,400 |
$100K | $1,250 | $1,650 | $2,100 | $2,700 |
$200K | $2,500 | $3,250 | $4,000 | $5,000 |
$500K | $4,500 | $5,500 | $6,750 | $8,500 |
$1M | $5,000 | $5,750 | $7,000 | $9,000 |
Reward caps: Instant Pro
The premium instant account: a higher split than Instant, higher caps, and one additional profitable day before your first request.
Account size | 1st reward | 2nd reward | 3rd reward | 4th reward and beyond |
$5K | $150 | $175 | $200 | $225 |
$10K | $150 | $225 | $275 | $350 |
$25K | $375 | $525 | $700 | $900 |
$50K | $750 | $1,050 | $1,400 | $1,800 |
$100K | $1,400 | $2,000 | $2,750 | $3,500 |
$200K | $2,750 | $3,600 | $4,750 | $6,000 |
$500K | $4,750 | $5,750 | $7,250 | $9,000 |
$1M | $5,000 | $6,250 | $8,000 | $10,000 |
Reward caps: Instant 24h
Instant 24h works differently by design. It is a single 24 hour session with one reward, paid on your final result, so there is no tiering and no progression. The cap below is the whole story.
Account size | Maximum reward |
$5K | $150 |
$10K | $300 |
$25K | $750 |
$50K | $1,500 |
$100K | $3,000 |
$200K | $5,000 |
Instant 24h in three lines
One reward only, with no tiers. Only the result produced inside the 24 hour window is eligible. The ceiling is $5,000.
What you keep: the profit split
Your cap limits how much moves in one request. The split decides how much of the profit is yours in the first place, and it is fixed at every account size within a product.
Product | You keep | UZO keeps |
One Step | 90% | 10% |
Two Step | 90% | 10% |
Instant | 80% | 20% |
Instant Pro | 90% | 10% |
Instant 24h | 99% | 1% |
On One Step and Two Step there is a further share available during the evaluation itself: 15% of the profit you made whilst passing. It is released once your funded account has grown 20% on a cumulative basis, and it requires a clean reward history.
A worked example
Take a $100,000 Two Step account. Your caps read $1,500, then $2,350, then $3,200, then $4,250 from the fourth reward onward.
You earn $4,000 in your first segment. You request, and $1,500 is approved in full. The remaining $2,500 stays in your balance and keeps working for you, but it belongs to a closed segment and is not withdrawable later.
Your tier moves to the second, worth $2,350. Your segment resets, so the next reward counts only profit earned from this point on.
You earn $2,000 in the second segment and request it. It is approved in full, and your tier moves to the third, worth $3,200.
Had that request been partially approved or declined, you would simply have stayed on the $2,350 tier and requested again.
How your cap moves up
Progression follows the outcome of your previous request, and nothing else.
Outcome of your request | Effect on your cap |
Approved in full | Your cap moves to the next tier |
Partially approved | Your cap stays where it is |
Declined | Your cap stays where it is |
Neither a partial approval nor a decline erases the progress you have already made. They simply do not unlock the following tier yet. Once you reach the fourth tier you remain there, and any further increase is granted individually after an internal review of your trading. We do not advertise an automatic unlimited cap, because we would rather promise only what we can pay on time, every time.
What happens whilst your request is reviewed
Once you submit a request, your account is paused until the risk review concludes. Trading is frozen and no new positions can be opened. The pause protects the position being paid out, and it lifts as soon as the review is complete.
The review confirms the straightforward things: that your positions are closed, that the minimum has been met, that the Best Day or Best Trade Rule holds, and that your request sits within your cap. 95% of rewards are approved within 2 to 3 hours, and funds are sent about 12 hours after approval.
Trading we will not fund
UZO reserves the right to treat trading as inauthentic even where no rule has been technically breached. The usual signals are heavy overleveraging, position stacking, single one-shot attempts, account rolling, and trading with no visible risk boundaries.
Where an account is reset, or a request is declined or partially approved because of a rule breach, that account may be limited permanently to 50% of the approved reward amount. This is rare, and disciplined trading never encounters it.
This structure is built for the consistent trader
If you manage risk and trade a normal book, the caps rise faster than your account grows and you will barely notice them. They exist to keep short-term, high-risk and one-shot behaviour from destabilising the rewards everybody else is waiting on.
Reward fees
Moving a reward out carries a fee, which depends on the method you choose. We publish it in full.
Method | UZO reward fee |
Bank transfer | $19.90 + 2.49% |
Crypto | $19.90 + 30% |
Crypto, where your original order was paid in crypto | $19.90 + 2.49% |
The fee is deducted from the amount before the funds are sent. On One Step and Two Step, your evaluation fee is separately refunded in full with your third reward.
Why the structure exists
A published cap is a promise about liquidity. It means the money behind every approved reward is already accounted for, which is what allows UZO to approve in hours rather than weeks and to pay every trader who meets the conditions. Rather than an unlimited figure that occasionally cannot be honoured, you get a firm figure that always is, and it rises with every reward you take.
