Legal structure
HOW WE ARE STRUCTURED

Verified Trader Capital Inc is a skill-assessment and performance evaluation service — not a registered broker-dealer, investment adviser, or commodity trading adviser. Understanding this structure is important before you purchase a challenge. 

Element

Detail

Implication for you

Business type

Skill-assessment service provider

We test your trading skill — we are not managing your money or providing investment advice

Evaluation accounts

Simulated trading environments using live Forex, CFD, Commodity, and Index market data

No real positions are placed during evaluation — you trade in a simulated environment with real prices

Performance accounts

Also simulated — backed by company operating capital

Payouts are funded from company operating capital — not withdrawals from a regulated brokerage account. We are committed to paying every trader who meets the documented criteria.

Evaluation fees

Non-refundable service fees for access to the evaluation system

The fee pays for platform access, data feed, and risk infrastructure — it is not a deposit

Payouts

Funded from company operating capital

Payouts are processed for traders who meet all documented criteria. Our commitment: every qualifying trader is most payouts processed within 1–3 business days of approval. Denials are issued only for documented rule violations — with a written explanation every time.

Regulatory status

Not registered with CFTC, SEC, NFA, or FINRA

This is the established industry-standard structure for evaluation-based prop firms — designed to follow industry-standard prop firm practice

Governing law

State of Wyoming, USA

All disputes are governed by Wyoming law under AAA arbitration rules

OFAC compliance

Traders from sanctioned countries cannot participate

Russia, Iran, North Korea, Belarus — blocked at KYC by our platform provider
Risk disclosure
RISK DISCLOSURE

Verified Trader Capital Inc is a skill-assessment and performance evaluation service — not a registered broker-dealer, investment adviser, or commodity trading adviser. Understanding this structure is important before you purchase a challenge. 

⚠️ Important risk warning — read before purchasing

Trading CFDs and Forex involves a substantial risk of loss and is not appropriate for all investors. You should carefully consider your financial situation, risk tolerance, and investment objectives before participating in any futures prop firm evaluation.

The majority of evaluation participants do not pass their challenge and do not receive a funded account. Of those who receive funded accounts, not all achieve consistent profitability or receive payouts. Past performance — whether your own or that of others — is not indicative of future results.

The evaluation fee you pay is non-refundable. You may lose the entire amount of the evaluation fee regardless of your trading performance. Do not pay an evaluation fee with money you cannot afford to lose.

Market risk

CFD and Forex prices can move rapidly and substantially in either direction. A single adverse price move can eliminate your entire daily loss buffer. Forex and CFD markets operate nearly 24 hours a day, 5 days a week — price gaps can occur at session opens and around major economic events.

Evaluation fee risk

The evaluation fee is non-refundable under all circumstances. If you breach the drawdown rule, hit the daily loss limit repeatedly, or violate any challenge rule, your evaluation ends and the fee is not returned. Only purchase a challenge with funds you can afford to lose entirely.

Drawdown & breach risk

Your evaluation account can be terminated at any time if your account balance reaches the trailing drawdown floor. This can happen due to a single large losing trade, multiple smaller losses, or adverse market movements on open overnight positions. Breaches are automatic and final.

Counterparty risk

Payouts are funded from Verified Trader Capital's operating capital — not from a segregated client account or regulated brokerage. Our commitment is to pay every trader who meets all documented criteria, promptly and in full. As a new firm, we are building our payout track record from day one — every payout we make is published publicly.

Leverage risk

CFDs and Forex are highly leveraged instruments. A small adverse price movement relative to position size can result in a loss many times larger than the initial margin. The leverage available in CFD and Forex trading magnifies both gains and losses significantly.

Technology risk

Trading platform outages, internet connectivity issues, data feed interruptions, or software errors can prevent you from managing open positions. Verified Trader Capital is not responsible for losses or rule violations caused by technology failures outside our direct control.

Transparency
HOW WE MAKE MONEY

We believe traders deserve to understand exactly how their prop firm makes money. Here is our model — stated plainly.

Revenue source: Evaluation fees paid by traders who purchase challenges. Each fee ranges from $99 to $429 depending on account size.

Payout source: Funded trader payouts are paid from evaluation fee revenue. We manage payout obligations against incoming revenue to maintain financial sustainability.

The alignment: Our model works best when skilled traders pass evaluations, trade funded accounts profitably, and receive consistent payouts — because happy funded traders buy more challenges and refer other traders. We are financially incentivized to pay qualified traders promptly.

The honest limitation: Like every evaluation-based prop firm, our revenue depends in part on traders who do not pass their challenges. We do not design rules specifically to cause failures — but the rules are strict because they reflect real risk management standards. Most traders who fail do so because of risk management errors, not because rules are unfair.

Regulatory
REGULATORY COMPLIANCE

Regulatory structure

Verified Trader Capital is not registered as a broker-dealer, investment adviser, or commodity pool operator. We operate as a skill-assessment service with simulated accounts — the established industry-standard structure for evaluation-based prop firms. Our structure is designed to follow industry-standard prop firm practice.

KYC / AML compliance

All traders must complete Know Your Customer (KYC) identity verification before any payout can be processed. KYC is conducted by our platform provider (PropAccount / FPFX Tech) using government-issued ID and biometric verification. This is required under US Anti-Money Laundering (AML) regulations. Your identity data is processed securely and not shared with third parties.

OFAC sanctions compliance

We are prohibited from serving traders from countries subject to OFAC sanctions, including Russia, Iran, North Korea, and Belarus. This restriction is enforced automatically at the KYC stage by our platform provider. Attempting to circumvent geographic restrictions will result in permanent account suspension and forfeiture of all funds.

Data privacy

Personal data collected during registration and KYC is processed in accordance with our Privacy Policy. We collect only what is necessary to provide the service and process payouts. We do not sell personal data to third parties. Data is stored on secure, encrypted infrastructure managed by PropAccount / FPFX Tech and their verified sub-processors.

Terms of service

By purchasing an evaluation challenge you agree to our full Terms of Service, which governs the evaluation process, payout conditions, prohibited conduct, dispute resolution, and the arbitration clause. The Terms of Service constitute a binding legal agreement under Wyoming law. Class action waiver applies.

Tax reporting

Traders are solely responsible for reporting and paying taxes on any payouts received from Verified Trader Capital. We do not provide tax advice. US traders receiving $600 or more in a calendar year will receive IRS Form 1099-NEC. International traders are responsible for compliance with their local tax obligations. Consult a qualified tax professional.

Legal disclaimer
HOW WE MAKE MONEY
⚠️ Full risk and legal disclaimer

Trading CFDs and Forex involves a substantial risk of loss and is not appropriate for all investors or traders. CFD and Forex trading is highly speculative and can result in losses that exceed your initial investment. You should only participate with risk capital — money you can afford to lose entirely without impacting your financial wellbeing.

Verified Trader Capital Inc is not a registered broker-dealer, investment adviser, commodity trading adviser, or commodity pool operator with the SEC, CFTC, NFA, FINRA, or any other regulatory body. Nothing on this website or in any communication from Verified Trader Capital constitutes financial advice, investment advice, trading advice, or any other type of advice.

Evaluation accounts are simulated trading environments that use live Forex, CFD, Commodity, and Index market data provided through Match-Trade. No actual positions are executed on any exchange on behalf of evaluation account holders. Simulated trading results may differ materially from actual trading results due to factors including but not limited to slippage, liquidity, and execution quality.

Performance Account payouts are funded from Verified Trader Capital’s operating capital. Payouts are processed for all traders who meet the documented eligibility criteria — our commitment is to pay every qualifying trader within 1–3 business days. Most payout requests are approved when all rules are followed. Payouts may be withheld only for documented rule violations — prohibited trading, incomplete KYC, or consistency rule breach — with a written explanation provided in every case.

Past performance is not indicative of future results. The trading results of funded traders displayed on this website or in our community channels represent individual results that may not be typical or achievable by all traders. Individual results will vary based on trading skill, risk management, market conditions, and other factors.

Evaluation fees are non-refundable under any circumstances, including but not limited to: account breach due to rule violation, voluntary account closure, platform technical issues beyond Verified Trader Capital’s direct control, or change of mind after purchase.

By purchasing an evaluation challenge, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agreed to the full Terms of Service, this disclaimer, and all challenge rules documented on the Rules page of this website. You further acknowledge that you are participating in a skill-assessment service — not a regulated investment program — and that all associated risks are your sole responsibility.
