Evaluation fees, reset fees, activation fees, add-ons, discounts, completed payouts, average future payout, payout split.
Output
Remaining unrecovered cost and future payout count estimate.
Source need

Output
Side-by-side worksheet rows for user-entered account sizes.

Which Tool Fits Which Problem?

ProblemStart hereWhy this row appears
Reset or start over?Reset Cost CalculatorCompares user-entered reset path costs against new evaluation path costs without saying either path is correct.
How many payouts to recover costs?Break-Even Payout CalculatorTurns user-entered costs and payout assumptions into recovery arithmetic.
Which account size has cleaner math?Account Size Comparison WorksheetShows price, target, drawdown, daily loss, activation fee, and split side by side from user-entered values.
How much risk does one planned trade use?Risk Per Trade CalculatorConverts account, drawdown, stop, unit value, and buffer inputs into a risk-cap snapshot.
How many counted days are left?Trading Day Requirement CalculatorUses user-entered day rules and calendar inputs; official rule definitions still control whether a day counts.

Source Rules For Firm-Specific Inputs

Source warning: arithmetic tools use values you enter. Anything tied to a firm’s rules, fees, discounts, or payout terms needs the firm’s current official source before you rely on it.

Hub source check: July 5, 2026. Current search results lean hard on ROI, pass-probability, and challenge-value calculators. BestProps keeps this launcher focused on arithmetic, source labels, and rule checks until firm presets have dated official evidence.

Use official sources first: firm terms, help-center pages, payout policies, account specifications, checkout flows, dashboard notices, or dated public announcements. BestProps editorial records can support a preset only when they preserve the original source URL and checked date.

Official examples checked July 5, 2026 show why presets need more than one number. Topstep payout rules vary by path, account size, day count, payout method, and trader cohort. Tradeify consistency and Lightning Funded payout rules vary by account type, purchase date, payout number, profit goal, and cap.

Preset areaOfficial source to check firstWhy it matters
Payout readiness and break-even mathTopstep payout policyMinimum payout, split, day counts, caps, methods, and cohort notes can change the result.
Consistency and counted-day checksTradeify consistency rule and Lightning Funded payout policyThresholds, purchase date, payout number, profit goals, caps, and no-minimum-day cases can all affect the answer.

Do not use Reddit posts, Discord messages, Telegram posts, review-site comments, affiliate-only pages, unsourced competitor tables, search snippets, or trader screenshots as calculator inputs. Public chatter can suggest what BestProps should investigate, but it should not populate a formula.

Reader Limits

  • A calculator output is not a recommendation to buy an evaluation, reset an account, increase trade size, or request a payout.
  • A rule value can be incomplete if the trader’s account path, purchase date, country, platform, product, or payout cycle is different.
  • A payout timeline, payout split, or minimum payout entry does not prove a future payout will be approved or processed.
  • A discount calculation does not guarantee a code is active, eligible, or the lowest available price.
  • BestProps is not a broker, investment adviser, tax adviser, law firm, accountant, auditor, regulator, or dispute-resolution body.

Editorial independence

This page currently has no signup links, paid placements, sponsored rows, or monetized routing. Calculator formulas, warnings, source labels, confidence labels, and whether a firm appears in an editorial comparison are set by source evidence, not by any commercial arrangement. If monetized links are added later, they will be disclosed next to the relevant link or section.

Corrections

If a tool uses stale pricing, an expired discount, a changed payout policy, a wrong rule threshold, or an unclear formula, BestProps should update the source record and changelog before changing the public output. Firms can improve accuracy by submitting official rule URLs, pricing pages, payout policy links, discount terms, and correction evidence. Submissions do not buy favorable calculator treatment or editorial inclusion.
