Send your payout request

Request a payout from Payouts in My Portal. You can cancel a request while it is Submitted or Under review; once it has a decision, it can't be changed.

  1. Open Payouts in My Portal and check the funded account shown.
  2. Enter the gross amount, or use Max when the page shows an available amount.
  3. Select Request, then complete WorkMarket setup and any identity or payee verification the page or support asks for.

Choose the gross request amount

For simulated-funded accounts, the minimum gross request is $500, before the 90/10 split. Payouts shows your plan limit, and the amount available from your trading when it can be worked out; evaluation profit is not eligible, and live accounts follow their approved terms.

For example, an approved $1,000 gross request reduces the account balance by $1,000 and pays you $900. Boxcar’s 10% share is $100.

Payment methods

Payouts are instant via Plaid for domestic U.S. bank accounts and take 2 days via WorkMarket by ADP for international bank accounts. Crypto payouts are also available.

Boxcar does not charge a payout fee.

Read your payout status

Payouts in My Portal lists open requests first and earlier requests in Payout history. Submitted, Under review, Approved and Processing requests stay open; the other statuses move to history. A request in history is paid only when its status is Paid.

If your account is moving live

Share any pending payout reference with support before the transition is settled. Approved or already-earned final payouts are handled separately from leftover simulated profits, which have different treatment by plan.
