How the $5K 1-Step works
A single evaluation phase. Hit the target once and get funded. There is 1 evaluation phase before the funded account.
- Phase 1: target $500 (≈ KES 64,992) (10%), daily loss $150 (≈ KES 19,497) (3%), max loss $300 (≈ KES 38,995) (6%, trailing), at least 5 trading days, 30-day limit, best day at most 40% of the profit.
- Funded account: daily loss $150 (≈ KES 19,497) (3%), max loss $300 (≈ KES 38,995) (6%, trailing).

How much you can earn from Kenya
On the funded account you keep 90% of the profit above the 3% buffer, paid in USDT to your wallet after the processing fee. Net examples on $5K:
- A 5% profit ($250) → you receive $86.85 (≈ KES 11,289) net.
- An 8% profit ($400) → you receive $217.12 (≈ KES 28,222) net.
- A 10% profit ($500) → you receive $303.97 (≈ KES 39,511) net.
How much you need to make per day on the $5K 1-Step
The phase 1 target is $500 (≈ KES 64,992). With at least 5 trading days and the consistency rule (best day ≤ 40% of the profit, so at least 3 profitable days), the fastest possible pace is $100 (≈ KES 12,998) a day for 5 days.
Spread over 10 trading days it is $50 (≈ KES 6,499) a day, 33% of your $150 (≈ KES 19,497) daily loss limit. Going slower costs nothing within the 30-calendar-day limit: the smaller the daily goal, the less you need to risk per trade.
Example for a trader in Kenya: risking 0.5% per trade ($25) for twice that in profit, each winner adds $50 (≈ KES 6,499); you need 10 winning trades for the phase, plus one more for every two losers.
| Phase | Target | Fastest pace allowed | Over 10 trading days | Over the full period | Best day cap |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Phase 1 | $500 (10%) | $100 /day × 5 | $50 /day | $23.81 /day × 21 | $200 (40%) |
Your first payout on the $5K 1-Step
Only the profit above $5,150 (≈ KES 669,414) can be withdrawn. Example: if the funded account reaches +5% ($250 (≈ KES 32,496)), you can withdraw $100 (≈ KES 12,998); your 90% is $90 and after the $3.15 fee you receive $86.85 (≈ KES 11,289) in USDT.
| Condition | On $5K |
|---|---|
| Buffer that stays in the account | $150 (≈ KES 19,497) (3%) |
| First payout | 14 days after the funded account is activated |
| Winning days per cycle | 5, each ≥ $25 (≈ KES 3,250) (0.5%) |
| Best day of the cycle | ≤ 40% of the cycle profit |
| Minimum payout | 50 USDT (≈ $55.56 of profit above the buffer) |
| Processing fee | 3.5% of the amount requested |

Paying, getting paid and tax from Kenya
From Kenya paying in crypto is usually the practical route: many local cards block international online payments. Checkout accepts USDT on TRON (TRC20), BNB Smart Chain (BEP20), Ethereum (ERC20), Solana, or BTC, ETH, BNB, SOL; network fees are usually lowest on TRC20, BEP20, Solana.
Payouts are sent in USDT only, on TRC20, ERC20, BEP20, to the wallet you save in your dashboard, with no KYC. Changing the wallet pauses payouts for 24 hours for security. The challenge fee is one-time and non-refundable, so try the platform with the free trial first.
The website, dashboard and trading platform are available in English and Spanish.
Tax: Axora Funded does not withhold tax or give tax advice. How USDT rewards are treated in Kenya depends on local rules and your situation; check with a qualified tax adviser in Kenya and keep the payout history from your dashboard (date, amount, network and transaction hash).
