Overview
Back2Funded gives you up to 2 Reactivations per account if you lose your Express Funded Account® (XFA) before your first Payout. Keep the same account size and payout rules — no Trading Combine® (TC) required.
Eligibility
To be eligible for Back2Funded, all of the following must be true:
The XFA was earned through Topstep's Trading Combine®
The XFA was closed due to a rule violation before taking a Payout
The XFA is on TopstepX™ in the new Topstep Dashboard
Trader is in good standing with no compliance concerns
⚠️ Once a Payout is taken from an XFA, it is no longer eligible for Back2Funded. Traders on the Focused Trader Plan (FTP) cannot use Back2Funded.

New: Responsible Trading Discount for Back2Funded
Select a Daily Loss Limit (DLL) at checkout when Reactivating your Express Funded Account, and receive a $50 discount.
✅ $50 off → 50K (DLL: $1,000)
✅ $50 off → 100K (DLL: $2,000)

💰 Please note: If you added a DLL to your Trading Combine® before the Back2Funded Responsible Trading Discount launched, the $50 discount will still apply automatically when you Reactivate. The DLL stays with the account for its full lifetime — Trading Combine® → Express Funded Account® → Reactivation.

Back2Funded-eligible XFAs do not count toward your 5-account limit until the Reactivation fee is paid

After expiration, you must return to the Trading Combine® to earn a new XFA
⏳ On May 29th, 2026, the Reactivation window increased from 7 days to 30 days! Accounts that were eligible for Back2Funded within the past 30 days will now show the updated time remaining based on 30 days minus however many days have already passed. This includes accounts where the original 7-day reactivation window have already passed. For example:
An XFA that was eligible for Back2Funded 3 days ago will now have 27 days remaining.
An XFA that was eligible for Back2Funded 10 days ago will now have 20 days remaining, even though the original 7-day reactivation window expired.
