How the profit split calculator works
A profit split calculator shows how a funded account's profit is divided between you and the prop firm. You enter the total profit and the split percentage, and it returns your share and the firm's share in dollars.
Profit split is one of the biggest differences between prop firms — common splits range from 80% to 90%, and some firms scale to 100% as you hit milestones. On larger payouts the gap between an 80% and a 90% split is significant, so it is worth comparing alongside price, drawdown and payout frequency rather than in isolation.
Use the result to compare offers realistically: a cheaper challenge with a lower split can cost you more over several payouts than a slightly pricier firm with a 90% split and a first-payout fee refund. Model the numbers before you commit to a funded account.
Frequently asked questions
What is a good prop firm profit split?
80% is standard, 90% is strong, and a few firms offer 100% on the first payout or after scaling. A higher split matters most once you are consistently profitable, so weigh it against the firm's rules and payout reliability.
Is the profit split taken before or after fees?
Usually the split is applied to net trading profit, but some firms deduct platform or payout fees first. Check whether your challenge fee is refunded on the first payout too — that effectively raises your real take-home.
How often can I withdraw my profit share?
Payout frequency varies from on-demand to bi-weekly or monthly, often with a minimum number of trading days. Frequent, reliable payouts can be worth more than a slightly higher split.
