At FundedSeat, simulated accounts are a stepping stone and a chance to refine strategies and build initial capital. Once traders prove consistent profitability, they're moved to FundedSeat Live accounts to trade in live markets.
Eligibility Requirements
A trader may be moved to a Live account once they have taken 4 payouts in a single account. Our Review team monitors all traders and may reach out to move you to the Live Account before 4 payouts. This decision is made at FundedSeat's discretion, based on your performance.
Live Funded account upgrades are invitation-only and granted at FundedSeat's discretion. Our team will contact eligible traders via email when they meet the criteria.
Live Account Advantages
90% Profit Split

EOD Drawdown
No Daily Loss Limits
No Payout Caps
Transition Process
Once the trader is invited to go Live:
All Simulated Funded Accounts are closed
Eligible Accounts Move to Live (up to 5 Live Accounts)
Any Simulated Funded account that has received at least one payout transitions to Live. If a Sim Funded account has not received a payout, it will not transition to Live.
Any trades or progress made after the last successful payout will not be included in the Live Transition.
Evaluations can still be traded, but will be placed on hold once passed. As long as the Live accounts are active, the trader cannot trade simulated Live accounts.
Up to 3K in profits per Simulated Funded accounts will be frozen.
The Live account will begin with a $0 balance and an initial EOD drawdown equivalent to the starting drawdown of the original Simulated Funded account.
For example, if the Simulated Funded account was a $50,000 account, the Live account would start at $0 with an EOD drawdown of -$2,000.
The EOD drawdown will lock at $0.
In Case of Hitting the Drawdown
Any remaining profits on the Live account, along with the trader’s share of the frozen profits from the Simulated Funded accounts, will be eligible for withdrawal.
If the Live account ends with a negative balance, that amount will be deducted from the profits held. The remaining balance will be available for withdrawal.
