Plain-English summary: ZZL Funded sells simulated-trading evaluations. You trade virtual capital on our in-house platform under published rules. If you pass and stay within the rules, we pay you a profit share in USDC as described on the site. This is a skill-evaluation service, not a brokerage, investment service, or financial advice.
ZZL Funded ("ZZL", "we", "us") is operated from Hong Kong and provides access to simulated trading challenges and simulated funded accounts on our proprietary web platform. All trading occurs in a simulated environment against market price data; no orders are routed to any exchange and no real securities, commodities, or derivatives are bought or sold on your behalf.
You must be at least 18 years old (or the legal age in your jurisdiction, whichever is higher). We accept traders worldwide, including residents of the United States, except where prohibited by applicable sanctions (including OFAC-listed jurisdictions).
Challenge fees are one-time payments per challenge, payable by card or cryptocurrency. Pricing shown at checkout (including discounts and the Pro Pack add-on) is final at the moment of purchase. The server-side price is authoritative.
Fee refund on first payout: when you reach a funded account and request your first payout, the full challenge fee you paid for that account is added to that payout automatically.
The rules published on our Rules page — profit targets, maximum daily loss, maximum drawdown, inactivity, news-trading and weekend-holding policies — form part of these terms. Hard breaches end the account. We apply rules exactly as published; where judgment is required, our risk desk's determination is final but always explained.
Violations may result in account closure and forfeiture of simulated profits. Challenge fees are refunded in cases of payment fraud reversal only as required by law.
Payouts are paid in USDC (TRC20 or ERC20) to the wallet you save in your dashboard. First payout is requestable 14 days after a funded account is issued; afterwards payouts are on demand with a $200 minimum and a 48-business-hour processing window. Payout requests are reviewed against the trading rules before approval.
The ZZL Scaling Plan (+25% capital after 3 clean payouts, +50% after 6, 2x after 9, repeating) is applied by our risk desk at each milestone review. Scaling applies to accounts in good standing and recalculates risk limits on the new balance.
All accounts are simulated. Simulated performance has inherent limitations and is not indicative of future results. Nothing on this site is investment advice. You are an independent contractor, not an employee, and you are responsible for your own taxes.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, ZZL's total liability for any claim arising from the service is limited to the fees you paid in the 12 months preceding the claim. We are not liable for data-feed interruptions, scheduled maintenance, or force majeure events.
We may update these terms; material changes are announced by email and on this page at least 7 days before they take effect. Continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance.
