How It Works
You buy access to an evaluation account with a program-access fee, never a deposit, and trade it under published rules. Pass, and the account moves to a funded stage where approved payouts are paid from FPT's own money at a 90/10 split in your favour. Polymarket and Kalshi coverage is included in every account at no extra charge.
What FPT Is Not
- Not a brokerage, exchange, custodian, investment adviser, portfolio manager, bank, financial institution or trading venue.
- Not gambling, gaming, betting, a contest or a sweepstakes.
- Not a place that takes customer deposits, holds customer funds or executes live trades for customers. Your program-access fee is not a balance you can trade with or withdraw.
- Not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by Polymarket, Kalshi or TruthTick unless expressly stated. Third-party trademarks belong to their respective owners.

The Markets and the Products
FPT is built for prediction markets: event contracts whose price moves with the probability of a stated outcome. You are never obliged to pick one venue; Polymarket is the dashboard default.
FPT Scale comes in $25,000, $50,000 and $100,000 sizes. FPT Direct is a straight-to-funded product planned for later, not purchasable and with no published price or ruleset. See FPT Scale vs FPT Direct.
FPT is in its Founder prelaunch period: a purchase today locks your Founder price and opens a basic prelaunch dashboard, and your evaluation becomes tradeable when FPT launches. See Founder Purchase and Launch Terms.
What FPT Publishes Before Launch
Every rule that decides whether you pass, what you may trade and what you are paid is published now, and those are the ones on this site. Four operational details are still being settled:
| Still to publish | Where it will appear | By when |
|---|---|---|
| The mark-price calculation used to value open positions | Maximum Loss and Trailing Drawdown | Before trading launches |
| The accounting definition of "realized" for a market that resolves while you hold it | Payout Rules | Before trading launches |
| The payout methods FPT will offer | Payout Methods and Taxes | Before the first payout cycle |
| How identity verification is carried out | Identity Verification | Before anyone is asked for it |
Until then, FPT names no payment processor, bank, verification vendor or payout provider anywhere — so anyone contacting you as one of them is not working for FPT.
