Not disclosed means we read this firm's own pricing page on 2026-09-14 and the figure was not published. Because a fee you will be charged is missing, the real total is higher than the figure above — by an amount only the firm knows.

50K EOD Trail, "Standard" type, at its $550 list price; the site advertises $55 with coupon SAVENOW. The evaluation is a one-time fee with no rebill, but it expires after 30 days and cannot be reset. A separate "No Activation Fee" account type lists higher — Apex does not publish what the Standard activation fee itself costs.

Frequently asked

Answered from what Apex publishes. Where Apex doesn't publish a figure, we say so.

How does the drawdown actually work? +
Apex's current accounts use an end-of-day drawdown — it is measured against your balance at the close, not against your highest intraday equity. On the 50K account the maximum drawdown is $2,000 and the daily loss limit is $1,000. Apex also offers a separate intraday-trail variant, which is the harsher model; check which type you are buying.
When can I request my first payout? +
Apex states you need five trading days on the funded account, after which a payout can be requested at any time. The firm advertises no payout denials, no payout reviews and no video reviews. Counting the one-day evaluation minimum and processing time, the fastest realistic path from purchase to money in your account is about eight trading days.
What does it really cost to get funded? +
The 50K EOD evaluation lists at $490 as a one-time fee with no monthly rebill, though Apex frequently discounts it heavily with a coupon (currently SAVENOW → $49). There is also an activation fee on the "Standard" account type, which Apex does not publish — the configurator only offers a separate "No Activation Fee" product priced higher. So $490 is a floor, not a total.
Is there a consistency rule? +
Yes, 50%, but only on the funded account — no single day may account for more than half your total profit. Apex states there is no consistency rule during the evaluation itself.
What happens if I fail the evaluation? +
Current Apex evaluations cannot be reset. The fee is one-time with no rebill, but the evaluation expires after 30 days, and a failed account must be repurchased.
