The core of the system is a three-month period. When you reach a new level, you keep its benefits and commission rates for the next three months. During this period, one of the following can occur based on your performance in any given calendar month:
− - Level Up: You advance if you meet the requirements for a higher tier, starting a new three-month period at that level.
− - Renew Level: You maintain your level by meeting its requirements again. Renewing Gold or Platinum also grants a free FTMO Challenge.
