How does the Reset Bank work?

Every Trading Combine® Rebill adds 1 Reset Credit to your Reset Bank. Credits are tied to a specific account size and path (Standard, Daily Loss Limit, or No Activation Fee) and expire 1 year after issue.

👉 Your Dashboard shows: how many Reset Credits you have, which sizes and paths they apply to, and expiration dates. The system always applies the oldest matching Reset Credit first.

How to Apply a Reset

  1. Log into your Topstep Dashboard.

  2. Select the active Trading Combine® you want to Reset.

  3. Click Reset.

  4. If you have eligible Reset Credits, you'll see how many apply.

  5. Confirm the Reset.

No eligible Reset Credit? You can purchase one directly for that account size and path.


Changing Your Email Address

To update your email, contact Trader Support with:

  • Your Topstep username

  • Last 4 digits of the card on file

This verifies your identity so we can process the request quickly. Review our Single Profile Policy below before reaching out.

Please note: this process covers email address updates only; it does not apply to converting a Google/social login to an email login, which is not currently supported.


Changing Your Name

Minor typos or errors in your legal name? Trader Support can correct those.

We cannot update a profile to reflect a completely different name, and we cannot transfer profiles between individuals. Contact Trader Support to get started.

Single Profile Policy

Each Trader is permitted one Topstep profile. Multiple profiles violate our Terms of Use and may result in:

  • Profiles or Trading Combines® closed without warning

  • Temporary or permanent account suspension

Do not create a new profile when purchasing additional Trading Combines®. All accounts must live under a single profile. Profiles cannot be transferred between individuals.


Set up your Trader Profile

Your Trader Profile is a public facing page where you can show who you are and share your trading journey. It's optional, and it has no effect on your Trading Combine®, funded account, or Payouts.

Where to find it: Dashboard → Profile → Public Trader Profile.

What you can show:

  • Avatar, background, and a custom handle

  • Location, bio, and time with Topstep

  • Discord handle (X, Reddit, and Instagram coming soon)

  • Trading preferences, badges, Proof of Payouts, stats, and Profit Calendar

Nothing displays by default. Every section has its own toggle, so you choose what's visible and when.

⚠️ Your handle is permanent. Pick carefully: it can't be changed after you set it. Handles are 6 to 16 characters, no numbers, special characters, or spaces.

Trader Profile: Referral Codes

Every Trader with an active Trader Profile can generate a referral code. Anyone new to Topstep who enters it at checkout gets 15% off their first account purchase. Once that purchase completes, the referrer gets a 15% reward discount code by email for a purchase of their own. Learn more about Referral Codes here.

Trader Profiles FAQs

Who can create a Trader Profile?
All active Topstep Traders. Practice Accounts won't show up in the list of accounts you can select for your profile.

Who can see my profile?
Only people you share your link with. Profiles live at social.topstep.com with a unique URL and aren't discoverable on the public web.

Will my dollar amounts be public?
Only if you turn on All-Time Payouts, Proof of Payouts, Trading Stats, or Profit Calendar. Those show real dollar amounts and are optional.

Can I edit, hide, or delete my profile?
Yes, any time. Changes to your sharing preferences take effect within seconds. Your handle is the 1 thing you can't change.

Can I have more than 1 profile?
No. 1 profile per Trader account and email.

Can I edit my stats?
No. Stats pull from Topstep data for accuracy. You only choose whether to display them.

What happens to my profile if my account closes?
It stays as is. You can hide or delete it any time, regardless of account status.
