Frequently Asked Questions
What is a 1-step challenge?
A 1-step (or single-phase) challenge requires you to meet a profit target just once to get funded. Traditional 2-step challenges require passing two consecutive phases.
Are 1-step challenges easier?
Not necessarily easier, but faster. 1-step challenges often have slightly higher profit targets (8-10%) compared to 2-step phase 1 (8%) + phase 2 (5%), but you only need to do it once.
Are 1-step challenges more expensive?
Prices vary, but 1-step challenges are often priced similarly to 2-step options. Some firms charge a premium for the convenience of a single phase.
