Funded Account Activation Process

Shortly after passing your evaluation, you'll receive a DocuSign email with the Funded Trader Agreement. This is a contract between you and the program operator that covers the terms of your funded account, including profit splits, trading rules, and obligations.

You'll also receive a push notification prompting you to check your email for the agreement.

Open the email, review the agreement, and sign it electronically through DocuSign.

If you haven't already completed Kraken's identity verification, you'll be prompted to do so. Verification involves submitting a government-issued ID and passing identity checks.

You can complete the verification through your Kraken account settings. For step-by-step instructions, see the Kraken support article on identity verification.

If you're already verified, this step is already done and no additional action is needed.

Your trading activity during the evaluation is reviewed for compliance with the program rules. This review checks for things like:

• Copy trading
• Hedging across accounts
• Exploiting system errors or latency
• Any other violations of the Evaluation Agreement and Program Rules

This review is conducted after you've signed the agreement and completed verification.

Once all three steps are complete, your funded account is typically activated within 12 to 24 hours. You'll receive an email and in-app notification when trading is enabled.

• Trading is enabled and you can start placing orders.
• The Available for payout field appears in your Portfolio widget.
• The Request payout button becomes available on the Portfolio page.

If the manual review identifies a violation of the program rules, your upgrade may be rejected. In this case:

• Your funded account remains with trading disabled.
• You're notified with the reason for rejection.
• The evaluation account remains closed with a Passed status.

If you believe the rejection was made in error, contact Kraken Support with your account details.
