Multiple Express Funded Accounts
Updated over a month ago

Topstep allows traders to have five (5) active Express Funded Accounts simultaneously.

If you earn additional funding while already having five active Express Funded Accounts, any new accounts will remain pending until you close one of your existing Express Funded Accounts.

Requesting Payouts in Multiple Express Funded Accounts

  • Each individual Funded Account will follow the same Payout policy.

  • Payout requests from each account do not affect one another.

  • When a trader is called up to the Live Funded Account, all open Express Funded Accounts will be closed. Their balances will be added together to create the Live Funded Account’s starting balance.

Traders may only have one active Live Funded Account with our brokerage partners. When a trader has a Live Funded Account they cannot have any open Express Funded Accounts.
