Every account we give away — the weekly Acid Games TOP-20, accounts bought with points in the Shop, and the monthly gift box — is a real account: a real evaluation, a real funded account behind it, real payouts.
One thing is different, and we would rather say it up front than have you find it in your dashboard: free accounts run slightly tighter limits than paid ones. A paid account is a little easier.
Side by side
| Rule | Free account | Paid account |
|---|---|---|
| One-Step Eval — max loss | 3% | 4% |
| Funded / Instant — max loss | 2% | 3% |
| Max loss on one trade — One-Step | 0.5% | 1% |
| Max loss on one trade — Funded / Instant | 0.5% | 0.5% |
| Profit target, payouts, every other rule | Same | Same |
All percentages are of your starting balance. The numbers on this page are read live from our rules, so they are always the ones the system actually enforces.
Which accounts count as free
- Acid Games prizes (weekly TOP-20)
- Accounts from the Shop (points from invites and missions)
- Gift box accounts
An account you buy — by card, USDT or AcidWallets — always runs the paid limits.
Why the difference
A free account is our money from the very first trade. The tighter limits are what let us keep giving accounts away every single week instead of stopping after one.
Still a real path
Pass a free evaluation and you are funded, with the same profit split and payout schedule as everyone else — plenty of traders start exactly this way. If you would rather have the paid limits from day one, buy an account.
Everything here is transparent: the free accounts are an opportunity, and these are its exact rules.
