Sure Leverage Funding review: the 70% split its own table mocks

Verdict

Sure Leverage Funding suits a CFD trader who wants instant simulated funding on MT5 or TradeLocker without a consistency rule, and who reads help-centre articles before marketing pages. It does not suit anyone who needs commercial terms fixed in a contract. The biggest caveat: the profit split, payout cap, minimum withdrawal and every consistency percentage appear nowhere in the Terms & Conditions. They live on pages the firm can rewrite overnight, and the marketing already disagrees with the rulebook.

Key terms, and where each number actually lives

• Split, Instant Funding Zero: “70% from the first payout onward” — Zero rules. The challenge table sells the same product as “Up to 100%”.
• Split, Instant Funding Static: a ladder by withdrawal number — 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, then 80% from the sixth — per the Static rules.
• Split, Instant Funding Trailing: “80% of the eligible payout amount, from the first payout onward” — Trailing.
• Highest split sold: 90/10 on the 1 Step Challenge. No product pays 100%.
• Payout cap: 5% of initial balance per 14-day cycle on Static, Trailing, Pro Zero and 2 Step — $10,000 on $200,000. Zero is the exception, at “Unlimited”.
• Minimum withdrawal: 0.5% of starting balance, plus “a 2% or $10 minimum transaction fee on each payout” — general rules.
• Maximum drawdown: 4% trailing (Zero), 8% static (Static), 7% trailing (Trailing), 5% trailing (Pro Zero), 10% EOD trailing (1 Step). Daily limits 2%–5%.
• Ceiling: $400,000 per trader, $200,000 within Instant Funding. Sizes $5,000–$200,000 on MT5 and TradeLocker, CFDs only.

The 70% it mocks is the 70% it pays

The /payouts page carries a two-card comparison. The left card, headed “Sure Leverage Funding”, is badged in green “100% Profit Split”. The right, headed “Other Prop Firms”, is badged in red “70% Profit Split” — and lists it again among its five failings.

Seventy per cent is what Sure Leverage Funding pays on Instant Funding Zero — the product it promotes hardest, fronted by a “No Profit Cap” badge and a “First 1,000 people only” note. It is also the Pro Zero split. The help centre states it without qualification: “70% from the first payout onward.”

The pattern repeats with a different number. On /zero and /static, the “Other Prop Firms” column mocks “50% Profit Split” — precisely what Instant Funding Static pays on a first withdrawal. The /static table also lists “Trailing Drawdown” as a competitor failing, while the firm sells three products that trail.

The green “100% Profit Split” badge carries a footnote: “*With the Instant Funding Program” — that is Instant Funding Static, whose documented first withdrawal is 50%. We found no product, at any size, that pays 100%.

The contract is silent on every number that matters

This is the more serious finding. The Terms & Conditions are an eight-page PDF, effective 20 July 2026, served from a WordPress uploads folder at checkout.sureleveragefunding.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/Terms-Conditions.pdf. It runs to roughly 1,800 words and contains no percentage sign at all. “Profit split” and “minimum payout” return nothing.

That is not an oversight. Clause 7 delegates the lot: “Each Evaluation Program is governed by the specific Program Rules published on the applicable product page and within the Company’s Help Center,” listing profit targets, loss limits, drawdown limits, consistency requirements and payout eligibility. Clause 11 adds: “Payout eligibility is determined solely in accordance with the applicable Program Rules.” Clause 21 allows amendment “by publishing an updated version on the Website”.

So the binding document points at a help centre with no version history, no changelog and no notification mechanism. Two articles carry effective dates; nothing else is dated, and a trader who bought in March cannot prove what the split was when they paid.

The rules pages also contradict each other. General rules put the minimum withdrawal at 0.5% of starting balance; the futures-style table sets it at $250 on a $25,000 account, or 1%. Instant Funding is capped at $200,000, yet Pro Zero states “Max Funding: $300,000”. Instant Funding Zero defines maximum drawdown as “4% of the initial account balance”, then calls $200 on a $5,000 account “5%”.

Payouts: what is published, and what is not

Payouts run every 14 days through Riseworks.io or USDT (TRC20), under a 24-hour guarantee with a real remedy: miss it, and the trader receives “an extra 10% on your profit split”. Instant requests are available on Static, 1 Step and 2 Step; Zero and Pro Zero instead impose a 3% profit buffer and reset the balance once paid.

The firm publishes a live payout tracker and claims “Over $1.68 Billion in Funding Provided” and a “12hrs average” payout time. We could not verify either figure — no audit, no attestation, no methodology note. Nor could we verify the challenge fees: prices render only behind an always-on discount badge generated by the site’s own code as a percentage “OFF + 200% Refund”, making the list price a construct.

On Trustpilot the firm scores 3.7 from 1,373 reviews, 61% five-star against 22% one-star, on a profile claimed with a paid subscription since December 2024. It carries a merged-profile notice: “This profile was merged with one or more other Trustpilot profiles belonging to this company.” Trustpilot does not say which profiles, and we could not establish what was merged in. Treat the aggregate as covering an unknown perimeter.

The rules that actually end funded accounts

Three mechanisms deserve attention, and none is in the contract.

Soft breaches. Breaking a rule — tick scalping, trading inside the five-minute window around red-folder news, or on Pro Zero failing to place a stop loss within five minutes of opening a trade — does not close the account. It deducts that trade’s profit at payout, and twenty soft breaches close the account. The line that matters most: “If you have 50% or more of trades being soft breached, your payout will be declined.” A profitable Pro Zero trader who is slow with stop losses can lose a whole cycle’s earnings to documentation, not trading.

Payout denial penalties. A first denial halves the profit split permanently; a second closes the account. Denial is assessed at payout, not in real time — the general rules confirm some rules “are not auto-flagged and may only be reviewed at payout or during a manual risk check”.

The floating loss rule. From 2 February 2026, equity falling more than 1% below starting balance — including unrealised losses, swaps and commissions — is a breach: first breach halves the split, second closes the account. On $100,000 that is a $1,000 open drawdown. It can be removed as an add-on costing 15% of the account price. A risk rule with a price is a fee, not a rule.

How the split compares

Sure Leverage is not an outlier for advertising above what it pays; it is the third firm this site has documented doing so. It is an outlier for building a comparison graphic whose losing column contains its own numbers.

Regulatory posture and corporate structure

Two entities, and the split matters. ASAP Solutions FZ-LLC, a free zone company in the Ras Al Khaimah Economic Zone, UAE, “owns and operates this website, offers the Sure Leverage Funding evaluation programs, administers customer accounts, collects Program Fees, and is the contracting party under the Terms & Conditions”. Sure Leverage Funding Ltd, company number 2025-00514, incorporated in Saint Lucia, provides only “the simulated trading environment, demo trading accounts, and related simulated trading platform services”. A Tbilisi office is “not a contracting entity”. RAK courts hold exclusive jurisdiction.

Neither entity is regulated. A RAK free-zone licence is a commercial registration, not authorisation from a conduct regulator, and Saint Lucia’s register performs no prudential supervision. The firm says so plainly, and the general rules go further than most: “All accounts are demo accounts with virtual funds using live market quotes. Sure Leverage may A-book and copy trade our best traders at our discretion.” That is an unusually candid disclosure, and a credit to the firm.

In fairness, the drawdown documentation is genuinely good, with worked examples for 5pm EST resets and high-water-mark recalculation, and the restricted-country list names fourteen excluded jurisdictions plus a $50,000 cap for Malaysia. Set against that, the leadership page shows a CEO, CFO and CMO as photographs with no names attached, under a heading reading “Built on Transparency”, and the domain was registered only on 9 April 2024. The chief marketing officer is quoted there: “What you see in our marketing is exactly what you get with SLF.” On the firm’s own help centre, that is not true of the profit split.

FAQ

Does Sure Leverage Funding pay a 100% profit split? No product in the published rules pays 100%. The highest documented split is 90/10 on the 1 Step Challenge. Zero and Pro Zero pay 70%, Trailing and the 2 Step pay 80%, and Static starts at 50%, reaching 80% only from the sixth withdrawal.

Is the profit split in the Terms & Conditions? No. The eight-page document contains no percentages at all. Clause 7 delegates profit targets, drawdown limits, consistency requirements and payout eligibility to “Program Rules published on the applicable product page and within the Company’s Help Center” — pages the firm can edit without notice.

What is the soft breach rule? Profit from a rule-breaking trade is deducted at payout rather than closing the account. If deductions exceed total profit the payout is denied, twenty soft breaches close the account, and if 50% or more of trades in a payout period are soft breached the payout is declined in full.

Which entity would I be contracting with? ASAP Solutions FZ-LLC in Ras Al Khaimah, UAE. The Saint Lucia entity, Sure Leverage Funding Ltd (2025-00514), supplies only the demo platform. Disputes go to RAK courts under UAE law.
