How it works
Get funded the way that fits how you trade.
Every Flagship challenge follows the same simple arc: prove your edge, get capital, get paid. The rules differ; the path doesn't.
- Up to 100%
- Profit split via FDR
- $1.2M
- Max funding
- Twice / mo
- Payout cadence
- Day one
- Instant funding available
The process
From sign-up to payout in four steps.
- 01
Pick your challenge
Choose Instant funding or a 1-step / 2-step evaluation, then your account size from $5K to $100K on TradeLocker.
- 02
Hit the target
Reach the profit target while respecting the daily and max drawdown limits. No time limit — trade at your own pace.
- 03
Get funded
Pass and we hand you a funded account. Vanguard skips the challenge entirely and funds you from day one.
- 04
Get paid
Withdraw your profits twice a month and keep up to 100% of the split as your Flagship Discipline Rating climbs.
