TradeApp Review 2026: Plans, Rules, Payouts and How It Compares

TradeApp TradeApp

TradeApp is a CFD proprietary trading firm operated by SPARTUM TECH LIMITED, a Cyprus limited company registered as HE368296 at Arch. Makariou III 66, Cronos Court, Office 82, 1070 Nicosia. The operating entity and registration number are named openly in the firm's own Terms and Conditions, which is not something every firm in this price bracket does. TradeApp sells a single-phase evaluation, and it prices that evaluation unusually low: the entry account costs $9.99. Asked in its own help centre which trading platforms it supports, the firm names exactly one, its own in-house terminal, and lists no third-party option such as MetaTrader. This review covers what is actually purchasable, what the rules say, and the places where the firm's own surfaces disagree with each other.

Plans and pricing

Three account sizes are purchasable on the live challenge page. Every figure below was read from TradeApp's own challenge widget and its homepage comparison table on 2026-08-31, and the two surfaces agree on all of it.

Account sizePriceProfit shareProfit target (10%)Daily drawdown (5%)Max drawdownMin. trading days
$10,000$9.9980%$1,000$500$1,2504
$25,000$24.9980%$2,500$1,250$2,5004
$100,000$99.9980%$10,000$5,000$10,0004

There is one detail in that table worth pausing on. On the $25,000 and $100,000 accounts the max drawdown figure is exactly 10% of the account size. On the $10,000 account the challenge page labels the row "Max Drawdown (10%)" but prints $1,250, which is 12.5%. The homepage table prints the same $1,250 and omits the percentage. Both of TradeApp's surfaces agree on the dollar amount and only one of them asserts the percentage, so $1,250 is the figure to plan around on the smallest account. Confirm it in the platform before you trade it.

$9.99Entry price ($10K account)
80%Base profit split
10%Profit target, single phase
14 daysPayout cycle after the first

The headline price is the base plan only. TradeApp sells three paid add-ons at checkout: an easier 8% profit target, a 90% profit share, and a 7% daily drawdown. On the $10,000 account those cost $29, $49 and $39 respectively, or $80 for all three as a bundle against $117 bought separately. On the $25,000 account they are $49, $89 and $69 ($165 bundled). On the $100,000 account they are $149, $259 and $199 ($430 bundled). This matters when reading TradeApp's marketing: the "up to 90%" profit share shown in the homepage "How It Works" section is a purchase option, not the rate you get by default. The default is 80%, and on the $100,000 account the upgrade to 90% costs $259 against a $99.99 challenge fee.

The challenge page also advertises the promo code NEW20 for 20% off. We read that code on the firm's own page on 2026-08-31 but did not put it through checkout, so treat the discount as advertised rather than confirmed.

Rules summary

The evaluation is single-phase with no time limit, so there is no 30-day or 60-day clock to beat. There is no consistency rule. Drawdown is static rather than trailing. Positions may be held overnight and over the weekend. Hedging is permitted and Expert Advisors are permitted. Scalping is not permitted. Challenge resets are not offered, and challenge fees are non-refundable under clause 5.1 of the Terms.

Payouts begin after three days of activity on the funded account and require at least 3% profit; each subsequent payout can be requested every 14 days. The minimum withdrawal is $100 and processing takes 7 to 14 business days. Withdrawals are offered by bank transfer, card and cryptocurrency; challenges are paid for by card or eWallet.

The Terms carry a 15-item list of prohibited trading practices, and it is longer than the marketing suggests. Alongside the expected entries (arbitrage, high-frequency trading, exploiting system errors, account sharing, "pass your challenge" services) it bans tick scalping, hedge arbitrage and reverse arbitrage across accounts, trade coordination or copy trading, one-sided bets, scalping during rollover using Expert Advisors, using third-party EAs with strategies identical to other traders', and using an EA without access to its source code. The stated penalty is immediate termination with no refunds and no profits issued.

Read the news-trading rule before you buy

TradeApp's homepage carries the strapline "No news trading restrictions" and its help centre answers the question with "Generally, yes". Item 15 of the Prohibited Trading Practices in the binding Terms and Conditions reads: "News Trading Opening positions 2 mins before or 2 mins after a news announcement or event." The Terms govern, so news trading is restricted in practice. If a news-driven strategy is why you are buying, this is the single clause to check first.

A second, smaller disagreement runs the same way. Both the challenge widget and the homepage table state a four-day minimum, while clause 5.2 of the Terms says a trader must "complete a minimum of three days of simulated trading". Two product surfaces against one legal one; four days is the figure to plan for, since it is the stricter of the two and the one shown at the point of sale.

Finally, and this is standard for the sector but stated unusually plainly here, trading is simulated throughout, including after funding. Clause 4.1 of the Terms reads: "The balance credited to Accounts is not real money. You have no claim on those credits."

Pros

  • The entry cost is $9.99 for a $10,000 account, among the lower published entry prices we track in the CFD category.
  • No consistency rule, no time limit on the evaluation, and overnight plus weekend holding are all permitted, with hedging and EAs allowed.
  • The operating company is named in the firm's own Terms with a registration number (SPARTUM TECH LIMITED, HE368296, Cyprus), which is verifiable against a public register.

Cons

  • The advertised 90% profit share is a paid add-on; the base rate is 80%, and the upgrade costs more than the challenge itself on every size.
  • The homepage advertises no news-trading restrictions while the Terms prohibit opening positions within two minutes either side of a news release, and scalping is not permitted despite an otherwise permissive rule set.
  • There is no third-party platform, so traders are tied to the in-house terminal, and the help centre publishes a price and account-size table ($5K/$49, $10K/$99, $25K/$199, $50K/$299) that does not match what the live checkout sells.

How it compares

TradeApp sits in the sub-$15 entry bracket of the CFD category, which is a crowded place. Three firms we track start at a comparable price, and the comparison is more useful on structure than on headline cost, because at these prices the fee is not what decides the outcome.

FirmEntry priceCheapest planProfit targetDaily lossMax drawdown
TradeApp$9.991-Step $10K10%5%$1,250 on $10K, 10% on larger sizes
Capital Mint Markets$9.99Minty Flash (limited-time promo)4%3%4% (equity-based)

Sway Funded$10.00Regular $1K10%/20%5%/10%10%/20%

The pattern is that TradeApp asks for a larger profit target than two of the three (10% against 4% and 6%) but gives a wider daily loss allowance in return (5% against 3%). Capital Mint Markets and Quant Tekel both run tighter risk parameters on both sides, which suits a trader who takes smaller, more frequent positions; TradeApp's 5% daily allowance with a static rather than trailing drawdown suits a trader who wants room for a position to breathe. Sway Funded is the closest structural match, running the same 10% target and 5% daily loss on its base configuration and, like TradeApp, selling a wider drawdown as a paid add-on. On payout cadence the three differ more than they do on price: TradeApp pays on a 14-day cycle after the first payout, Capital Mint Markets on a 7-day cycle on most programmes, Sway Funded on demand. Account-size range is the clearer separator. TradeApp sells three sizes reaching a ceiling of $100,000, so a trader looking to scale past that will run out of ladder here regardless of how the rules suit them. Live figures for all four firms are on their respective pages.

Verdict

The rules are permissive where it is cheap to be permissive and restrictive in the paperwork.PropFirmMap

TradeApp is a reasonable fit for a trader who wants a low-cost, single-phase evaluation with no time pressure and no consistency rule, who holds positions across sessions and weekends, and who is content on a proprietary terminal rather than MetaTrader. It is a poor fit for a scalper, for anyone whose edge depends on trading news releases, and for anyone who needs an account larger than $100,000 or a third-party platform. Price the add-ons into the decision rather than the headline: on the $100,000 account, the 90% profit share upgrade costs $259 against a $99.99 challenge fee, so the real cost of the configuration being marketed is several times the advertised one. Before buying, read Prohibited Trading Practices item 15 in the Terms and check the $10,000 account's max drawdown figure in the platform, because those are the two places where TradeApp's own surfaces do not agree with each other.
