E8 Futures Payout Policy Explained
E8 Futures pays 80% to the trader as standard on both products (E8 Zero also offers a 100% option at a higher purchase price), but the path to actually requesting a payout looks very different between E8 Signature and E8 Zero.
E8 Signature Futures
| Size | Profitable Day Minimum | Payout Cap (1-2 / 3-4 / 5+) |
|---|---|---|
| $25,000 | $75 | $1,000 / $1,250 / $1,500 |
| $50,000 | $150 | $1,250 / $2,250 / $3,250 |
| $100,000 | $300 | $2,250 / $3,250 / $4,250 |
| $150,000 | $450 | $3,250 / $4,250 / $5,250 |
What you need to qualify: the 35% best-day rule, 5 profitable days since your last payout (first payout exempt), and a buffer left in the account matching your EOD Dynamic Drawdown amount. Min payout $100. The cap rises with each pair of payouts - your 5th and every payout after gets the highest tier.
E8 Zero (Starter & Max)
| Size | Starter Cap | Max Cap |
|---|---|---|
| $50,000 | $1,000 | $3,000 |
| $100,000 | $1,600 | $5,000 |
| $200,000 | $2,100 | $7,000 |
What you need to qualify: nothing beyond clearing the cap itself - no consistency rule, no minimum profitable days, no buffer requirement. Min payout $100, requestable daily. Starter and Max share identical trading rules; only the price and this cap differ.
Rules That Apply Across Both Products
- Account lifespan: 5 payouts, then a free Challenge of the same size to start over.
- Current-cycle profit only: on accounts purchased after July 14, 2026, unused profit from a prior payout cycle doesn't carry forward to the next one.
- Reward share: 80% standard on both. E8 Zero additionally lets you buy up to a 100% share at purchase.
Quick Comparison
E8 Signature makes you clear more hurdles per payout (5 profitable days, a buffer, the 35% rule) but the process is predictable and structured. E8 Zero has zero friction once funded - just hit the cap and request - but you're choosing between Starter's lower cost and Max's bigger cap upfront, since neither can be upgraded after purchase.
