What Is a No Activation Fee Evaluation?
No Activation Fee Evaluation streamlines the transition from Evaluation to Performance Account.
Once the Evaluation is passed successfully, the corresponding Performance Account can be activated without any additional activation payment.
No Activation Fee Evaluations follow the same rules, drawdown structure, access period, and qualification process as standard Evaluations.

How No Activation Fee Evaluations Work
The Evaluation is traded normally during the standard 30-day access period.
If the account reaches the profit target and all Evaluation rules are respected, the account becomes eligible for Performance Account activation after market close.
With an All-In Evaluation, the activation process works the same as a standard Evaluation, except the total price to activate the PA is set at $0. Complete guide on PA activation process.
