Additional payout notes
Homepage states payouts available via bank transfer or Direct Crypto (USDT), and firm claims 8 years of uninterrupted payouts across 178+ countries. Numeric first_payout_days, min/max withdrawal amounts, and first-payout-fee-refund policy could not be sourced this session: the dedicated CTI help center (helpcenter.citytradersimperium.com) is Cloudflare-blocked, help.citytradersimperium.com does not resolve, and guessed paths /faqs/ and /challenge/ both 404. The full CTI Terms and Conditions PDF (citytradersimperium.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/City-Traders-Imperium-Terms-and-Conditions.pdf) was read in full this session and contains no payout numerics, referencing a separate Challenge, Instant, FAQs and Conduct Policy document not locatable this session. Scope note: this reingest targets payout_rules only; the challenges array required by ingest schema is a verbatim pass-through of the firm's existing DB-verified data (not re-scraped this session) and is cited via the coarse 'challenges' source key per the validator's documented coarse-path allowance.
