What are the requirements for an affiliate payout?
What are the requirements for an affiliate payout?
Before you can withdraw your approved commissions, there are several requirements you must meet.
- Identity verification (KYC/KYB): all partners must complete FTMO Identity verification before their first payout can be processed.
- Tax documentation (FTMO US only): before your first FTMO US payout, you must complete a W-9 tax form in your dashboard.
- Minimum payout balance: €50 in FTMO, $55 in FTMO US.
Once you meet these requirements, you can set up your withdrawal. FTMO payouts are available via bank transfer, Skrill or crypto, in EUR, USD or GBP. FTMO US payouts are processed via wire transfer, in USD.
Your FTMO and FTMO US balances are held separately and cannot be combined into a single payout.
