Apex Trader Funding

Correction: Apex's "$197/month list" and "~$85 activation" are not values we hold

Our Apex Trader Funding pricing summary said "50K: ~$197/month list, but with near-constant promos (up to ~90% off, ~$20/month). One-time ~$85 activation when funded." Our record's list price for the 50K is null, and the field is flagged CONFLICT because Apex's checkout sits behind script and login while the second-hand figures disagree sharply: one source gives the 50K End of Day at $490 and Intraday at $249, another gives $197 and $131 for the same two plans. Publishing $197 as the list price picked one side of that disagreement and presented a second-hand figure as established. The ~$20/month that followed inherited the same unsupported base. The ~$85 activation is not in the record at any point, from any source. What the record holds is that a one-time PA activation fee exists, is due within seven calendar days of passing, and is excluded from promo codes — all of that from Apex's own pages — while the amounts $99 for End of Day and $79 for Intraday are second-hand only. The summary now publishes no list price and no activation amount, keeps the parts that are primary, and keeps Apex's own homepage promo wording in English. The reset statement was already correct and is retained with its quote. No structured value changed and the verification date did not move.

Apex sells Legacy accounts on its product page and says on its homepage that they are no longer sold, on the same day

This question had been open in our notes for months: Apex''s legacy products page once said the line was being retired on 1 March 2026, and the account we rank is precisely a Legacy 100K. Today the answer is that it can be bought, and that Apex contradicts itself in writing. The product page is headed "Legacy Accounts – Available Now – Limited Time", offers six sizes across three platforms and serves signup with a working button. No retirement sentence appears on it any more. The price we publish is still exact: "$297/Month" regular, "$29.70/Month" with coupon "SAVENOW" and "$125.00" one-time fee on conversion to a PA. The homepage says both things at once. In a promotional section: "Legacy Accounts Are Back For a Limited Time. Our Legacy Accounts evaluation accounts have returned across 6 balance tiers and 3 platforms. Available only while the promotion lasts." And in its FAQ block, about Legacy accounts predating 1 March 2026: "No longer available for new purchases." We do not resolve which one governs, because both are Apex''s and neither is dated. We record the disagreement. What is operative is that the page that charges you is the product page, and today it charges. A note on the countdowns: the product page''s read "Ends in: 12d 07h 07m 16s" and the homepage''s read "Ends in: 8d 04h 53m 25s" in the same reading. Two different clocks for the same promotion, about four days apart, and neither page publishes an end date. It is not a citable deadline.

Correction: the payout terms we published for Apex are its 4.0 account's, not the Legacy account's, which is the one we rank

The Apex product we rank is the Legacy 100K. The payout terms we published came from the help articles for the 4.0 Sim-Funded accounts, which is a different product with different rules. Reading Apex''s own Legacy article first-hand today, four of the main figures were not ours: The split. We published a flat 100%. Apex says: "Traders are entitled to 100% of the first $25,000 per account they are paid out, and 90% of the profit after that." It is not flat; it drops to 90% past the first $25,000 paid out. The payout cap. We published "hard cap of 6 payouts per PA, then the PA closes". On the Legacy account the six closes nothing: the dollar caps apply to the first five payouts ($1,500 at $25k, $2,000 at $50k, $2,500 at $100k, $2,750 at $150k, $3,000 at $250k, $3,500 at $300k and $1,000 on the $100k Static) and "Starting from the sixth payout, there''s no maximum payout amount, provided the minimum balance threshold remains in the account after the payout." The sixth payout releases the cap, it does not kill the account. That is the exact opposite of what we published. The days. We published 5 qualifying days. Apex requires "at least 8 trading days" with "at least 5 of those 8 days" closing at "a profit of $50 or more", and eight trading days between requests. The consistency rule. We published the 4.0''s 50% rule. Legacy carries a 30% one: "The 30% Consistency Rule ensures that no single trading day accounts for more than 30% of the total profit balance", with the formula "Highest Profit Day ÷ 0.3 = Minimum Total Profit Required", in force through the sixth payout. The $500 minimum was correct and is unchanged. The 4.0 figures stay in the record, labelled as the 4.0''s and unpublished, so they are not lost. This is the same framing error we corrected yesterday on Bulenox and The5ers: a figure that is right for one product, published against another. Each of the three was internally plausible, which is why none of them stood out.

Apex's legacy countdown showed the same remaining time three days running, while its homepage countdown went up by almost 13 days overnight

Apex promotes its returned legacy evaluations behind a countdown timer on two of its own pages, and we have now transcribed both on three consecutive days. The legacy-products page served "Ends in: 7d 08h 25m 05s" on 7 September, again on 8 September, and again today, 9 September — the same string, to the second, three days apart. The homepage served "Ends in: 1d 14h 09m 07s" yesterday and "Ends in: 14d 03h 16m 22s" today, an increase of roughly twelve and a half days over twenty-four hours. We are recording what each page served on each date and nothing else; we are not characterising why. What this means for a buyer is narrow and practical: the remaining time these two pages display is not a reliable countdown to a fixed deadline, and neither page should be read as telling you how long the $29.70 price will last. The price itself is unchanged, at "$297/Month" and "$29.70/Month – (with Coupon Code)" under code SAVENOW, with a "$125.00" PA fee. The underlying availability conflict is also unchanged and stays unresolved: the homepage still says legacy accounts are "No longer available for new purchases." on the same page that says "Our Legacy Accounts evaluation accounts have returned across 6 balance tiers and 3 platforms."

Apex's homepage now carries both sides of the legacy-account contradiction by itself — it says legacy is "no longer available for new purchases" and advertises its limited-time return on the same page

Until now the disagreement ran between two Apex pages: the legacy sales page selling the accounts and the help centre saying they were retired on 1 March 2026. Read first-hand today, the homepage holds both positions at once — it states of legacy accounts "No longer available for new purchases. Not impacted by any new programs. No rules or program changes." while at the same time promoting a limited-time return of legacy evaluations across six balance tiers and three platforms, under "Any Size Evals up to 90% Off | Use code: COUPON "SAVENOW"". The countdown skew also persists and confirms these timers are not fixed dates: the homepage showed "Ends in: 1d 14h 09m 07s" while the legacy page showed "Ends in: 7d 08h 25m 05s" for the same promotion in the same session. Our tracked price is unchanged at $297 a month, $29.70 with SAVENOW. We continue not to resolve this: only a completed purchase would settle whether the product is buyable.

Correction: we had settled Apex's legacy-availability conflict in favour of the sales page — we should not have. Both Apex positions restored, unresolved

Since 2026-07-23 our Apex pricing record has carried this conflict with a resolution attached: "sales page treated as current". That was our judgment, not Apex's statement, and our own rule is never to resolve a conflict by picking a side. We are removing the resolution and publishing this correction rather than editing it away quietly. Both positions, re-read today: the legacy-products sales page is headed "Legacy Accounts – Available Now – Limited Time", prices the 100K at "$297/Month $29.70/Month – (with Coupon Code)" with code "SAVENOW", carries a countdown reading "Ends in: 7d 08h 25m 05s", and serves working checkout links including https://dashboard.apextraderfunding.com/signup/100k-tradovate-legacy. The help centre says "No, as of March 1st, 2026, Legacy evaluation accounts are no longer available for purchase to anyone", adding that "Legacy accounts purchased prior to March 1st, 2026, will not be affected". Both are Apex pages. We cannot tell a buyer which one governs, and we will not guess. What we can say is that the sales page's checkout links resolve and its countdown has been running with a different remaining time on every page we check, including "Ends in: 2d 14h 24m 20s" on the homepage in the same session — so the deadline is not a fixed calendar date. Anyone relying on legacy pricing should confirm at checkout before paying.

Apex's homepage advertises "NO Payout Denials" while its own payout help article lists conditions under which a payout is denied — logged as a conflict

Apex's homepage markets the rebranded product with "NO Payout Denials". The firm's own EOD payouts help article — the page our payout record is built on — lists conditions under which a payout request is not honored: a balance below the required threshold, failing the 50% consistency-since-last-payout check, or fewer than 5 qualifying trading days. Both statements sit on Apex's own pages; per policy we log the disagreement without resolving it.

Apex legacy accounts are purchasable again: six monthly tiers from $16.70 with code SAVENOW and a $125 PA fee — reversing the August 12 retirement

The legacy-products page sells legacy evaluations again as a "Limited-Time Offer" across six tiers on Tradovate, Rithmic and WealthCharts: 25K "$167/Month $16.70/Month – (with Coupon Code)", 50K $197 to $19.70, 100K "$297/Month $29.70/Month" with a "$6,000" profit goal, "$3,000" trailing threshold and "14 (140 Micros)" contracts, 150K $497 to $49.70, 250K $597 to $59.70 and 300K $697 to $69.70. The one-time PA activation fee is "$125.00". The homepage banners "Any Size Evals up to 90% Off" with coupon "SAVENOW" and a countdown showing about 13 days left on 2026-08-26. This reverses our 2026-08-12 entry "Legacy sale over"; our offers row now tracks Legacy 100K at $297/month, $29.70 with SAVENOW.

Legacy sale over: Apex legacy accounts can no longer be purchased — the tracked $29.70 100K deal is retired

Through 11 August the legacy-products page sold six legacy tiers (100K at $297 → $29.70 with SAVENOW). Today it reads 'The limited-time offer has ended. Be sure to check this page for future offers.', and the homepage states legacy products are 'No longer available for new purchases. Not impacted by any new programs.' We removed the Legacy 100K row from the deals ranking. Apex's current evaluations stay on sale with SAVENOW (up to 90% off, countdown ends around 26 August), but their prices only render with JavaScript, so no replacement price is tracked yet.

Correction: relaunched Legacy accounts carry a $125 one-time PA fee — we listed $0 activation

Apex's own legacy-products page lists a one-time PA fee — 'One-Time PA Fee … One-time activation fee when you convert to a funded Performance Account. $125.00' — identical across all six legacy tiers. Our offers row for the Legacy 100K said 'no activation' ($0). Corrected to $125; the effective evaluation price is unchanged ($297/mo, $29.70/mo with SAVENOW). We cannot establish whether the fee was added after the 26 July relaunch or missed at transcription; either way the published $0 was wrong.
