Frequently Asked Questions
Getting started
What is Kiwi Funded?
A simulated CFD prop firm. You pay a one-time challenge fee, trade a virtual account under published rules, and once funded you earn real payouts from your simulated profits.
Is this real trading?
No. All accounts are simulated with virtual funds. We are not a broker and no real orders reach any market.
How quickly do I get my account?
Instantly after checkout — your Kiwi Terminal login is generated automatically.
Rules
What is the daily loss limit?
Depends on the plan (3–5% of day-start equity). If breached, the account fails automatically.
What is the max drawdown?
6–10% depending on plan, either static (from initial balance) or trailing (from your equity high-water mark).
Can I hold trades overnight or over weekends?
Yes on swing-type plans — and there are never any swap fees. Standard plans may restrict weekend holding; see the Challenge Agreement.
Are EAs, copy trading or HFT allowed?
Personal EAs are allowed within limits. Copy trading between accounts, HFT, latency arbitrage and grid/martingale abuse are prohibited and detected automatically.
Is there a consistency rule?
Some plans cap how much of your total profit can come from a single day. Details are listed on each plan card.
Payouts
When can I request a payout?
Every 14 days once funded, after the first payout delay for your plan.
Are payouts capped?
Yes — each request is capped based on account size ($1k on a $5k account up to $20k on a $100k account).
How are payouts processed?
Manually reviewed and sent within 48 hours via bank transfer or crypto after KYC is approved.
