# Vest Markets Configurable small-account challenges and instant accounts on a 24/7 multi-asset exchange. Source page: https://trust.chartnaut.com/firms/vest-markets Website: https://www.vestmarkets.com Founded: — Based in: — Markets: Forex, Indices, Commodities, Crypto, Stocks Platforms: — Payout methods: Crypto ## Overview Vest Markets is a 24/7 multi-asset exchange run by Vest Labs Inc., and Vest Capital is its funded trading program. You trade stocks, indices, crypto, commodities and FX from one cross-margined account on Vest's own platform. It suits traders who want a cheap way in on small accounts and are happy to be paid in USDC. ### How the evaluation works Accounts run from $5,000 to $25,000, and every evaluation uses a static 6% drawdown that never moves. - **1-Step:** you pick a 10% or 20% target, a 3%, 4% or no daily loss limit, and an 80% or 90% split. The price follows your choices, from $25 up to $450. - **2-Step:** a fixed 10% then 5% target, a 3% daily loss limit and an 80% split, from $15. - **Instant Account:** no target, live from purchase. Sizes run from $500 to $25,000, the fee equals your maximum drawdown (2% to 4%), and the split is 95%. There's no time limit on any account. ### Rules worth knowing - Breaching the daily or overall loss limit closes the account at once, with no warning. - The daily limit resets at 20:00 ET and is checked against equity, including open positions. - API trading isn't available on funded accounts, and XRP and HYPE can't be traded on them. - Non-crypto positions follow normal weekend market hours. - You can hold up to ten live funded accounts at once. ### Getting paid Your split is fixed at purchase: 80% or 90% with an evaluation, 95% on Instant. You claim profit on demand from the funded account, it lands in your main Vest account within 24 hours, and you withdraw it as USDC to your own wallet. ## Good - Very low entry prices, from $10 - You choose target, daily limit and split on 1-Step - Static drawdown that never trails - Profits claimable on demand, paid in USDC ## Watch for - Accounts top out at $25,000 - Breaching a limit closes the account with no grace - No API or bot trading on funded accounts - Payouts in USDC only ## Challenges | Program | Steps | Account | Price | Profit targets | Daily loss | Max loss | Drawdown | Split | Min days | Payouts | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Vest Capital 1-Step | 1-step | USD 5,000 | USD 40 | 10% | 3% | 6% | Static | 80% | — | On demand | | Vest Capital 1-Step | 1-step | USD 10,000 | USD 80 | 10% | 3% | 6% | Static | 80% | — | On demand | | Vest Capital 1-Step | 1-step | USD 25,000 | USD 210 | 10% | 3% | 6% | Static | 80% | — | On demand | | Vest Capital 1-Step (no daily limit) | 1-step | USD 25,000 | USD 375 | 10% | — | 6% | Static | 80% | — | On demand | | Vest Capital 2-Step | 2-step | USD 5,000 | USD 15 | 10% / 5% | 3% | 6% | Static | 80% | — | On demand | | Vest Capital 2-Step | 2-step | USD 25,000 | USD 90 | 10% / 5% | 3% | 6% | Static | 80% | — | On demand | | Instant Account | Instant | USD 500 | USD 10 | None | — | 2% | Static | 95% | — | On demand | | Instant Account | Instant | USD 25,000 | USD 1,000 | None | — | 4% | Static | 95% | — | On demand | ## Trading rules - News trading: not checked - Expert advisors / bots: not checked - Copy trading: not checked - Weekend holding: not checked - Overnight holding: not checked - Hedging: not checked ## What traders say Checked 2026-10-06. - Prop Firm Pal: no score (https://propfirmpal.com/firms/unverified/vest-markets) - Reddit: no score (https://www.reddit.com/r/DamnPropFirms/comments/1wv3vz8/vest_markets_prop_firm_payout_proof_13_requests/) - YouTube: no score (https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=vest+markets+prop+firm+review) Vest Markets is very new to prop trading, and there is almost no trader review history yet. Its funded program, Vest Capital, runs on the firm's own perpetual futures exchange, and review sites in October 2026 report that it has no Trustpilot reviews at all. What exists is a handful of first-hand blog reviews, a Reddit payout thread and some YouTube walkthroughs, so treat everything below as early impressions. ### What traders like - **Fast, uncapped payouts.** Traders writing about their own accounts say payouts in USDC arrived within a day, and a Reddit thread shares proof of several withdrawals in a short span. - **Simple risk rules.** Reviewers like the fixed drawdown that never trails, the lack of a consistency rule or time limit, and being able to hold over the weekend. - **Cheap entry.** Low account prices come up as a reason to try it. ### Common complaints - **Costs on index trading.** One trader says price drift and fees on the exchange's own NQ contract worked against them, so a correct call still lost money. - **Who is behind it.** An earlier Reddit thread about the exchange questioned its backing and noted the lack of reviews, and reviewers point out the Panama terms, the lack of a regulator and that funded balances are simulated. - **A mispricing rollback.** Reviewers mention a June 2026 pricing error that hit about 20 accounts, after which the firm adjusted profit and loss and compensated those affected. ### Recently - **October 2026:** several first-hand reviews appeared within days of each other, generally saying the firm pays but warning about costs and the terms. No Trustpilot reviews yet. ### Where this comes from - [Prop Firm Pal](https://propfirmpal.com/firms/unverified/vest-markets): unverified listing with a trader reviews tab. - [Reddit](https://www.reddit.com/r/DamnPropFirms/comments/1wv3vz8/vest_markets_prop_firm_payout_proof_13_requests/): a payout proof thread in r/DamnPropFirms, plus an [r/defi thread](https://www.reddit.com/r/defi/comments/1pq6vh5/vest_markets_exchange_trustworthy/) asking about the exchange. - [YouTube search](https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=vest+markets+prop+firm+review): rule and pricing walkthroughs. --- Information gathered from public sources (company websites, regulator registers, third-party review sites).
