City Traders Imperium: Payouts & split
Challenge split starts 80% and climbs to 90% (VIP Bronze) then 100% (VIP Silver+), with a monthly salary at Gold. Instant starts lower (50% → 70% → 80%). Challenge payouts begin monthly and accelerate to weekly then on-demand with VIP tier; Instant pays bi-weekly. Scaling reaches $2M per account / $4M across accounts. KYC required.
The gotcha
The advertised 100% split applies to Challenge/VIP progression — Instant entry is only a 50% split.
What happens if you break it
Breaching this doesn't necessarily close the account, but it can disqualify the payout you were trading toward — you keep trading, the profit doesn't get paid.
