How the $5K Ascent works
Three short climbs of 6% each. The smallest targets and the lowest price per dollar of capital. There are 3 evaluation phases before the funded account.
- Phase 1: target $300 (≈ AUD 436) (6%), daily loss $150 (≈ AUD 218) (3%), max loss $250 (≈ AUD 364) (5%, trailing), at least 3 trading days, 30-day limit, best day at most 40% of the profit.
- Phase 2: target $300 (≈ AUD 436) (6%), daily loss $150 (≈ AUD 218) (3%), max loss $250 (≈ AUD 364) (5%, trailing), at least 3 trading days, 30-day limit, best day at most 40% of the profit.
- Phase 3: target $300 (≈ AUD 436) (6%), daily loss $150 (≈ AUD 218) (3%), max loss $250 (≈ AUD 364) (5%, trailing), at least 3 trading days, 30-day limit, best day at most 40% of the profit.
- Funded account: daily loss $150 (≈ AUD 218) (3%), max loss $250 (≈ AUD 364) (5%, trailing).

How much you can earn from Australia
On the funded account you keep 80% 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 $77.20 (≈ AUD 112) net.
- An 8% profit ($400) → you receive $193.00 (≈ AUD 281) net.
- A 10% profit ($500) → you receive $270.20 (≈ AUD 393) net.
How much you need to make per day on the $5K Ascent
The phase 1 target is $300 (≈ AUD 436). With at least 3 trading days and the consistency rule (best day ≤ 40% of the profit, so at least 3 profitable days), the fastest possible pace is $100 (≈ AUD 145) a day for 3 days.
Spread over 10 trading days it is $30 (≈ AUD 43.65) a day, 20% of your $150 (≈ AUD 218) 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. Across the 3 phases the targets add up to $900 (≈ AUD 1,309).
Example for a trader in Australia: risking 0.5% per trade ($25) for twice that in profit, each winner adds $50 (≈ AUD 72.74); you need 6 winning trades for the phase, plus one more for every two losers.

| Phase 3 | $300 (6%) | $100 /day × 3 | $30 /day | $14.29 /day × 21 | $120 (40%) |

Paying, getting paid and tax from Australia
You can pay by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay in US dollars (your bank converts from AUD and may add its own exchange fee), or in crypto: USDT on TRON (TRC20), BNB Smart Chain (BEP20), Ethereum (ERC20), Solana, or BTC, ETH, BNB, SOL.
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 Australia depends on local rules and your situation; check with a qualified tax adviser in Australia and keep the payout history from your dashboard (date, amount, network and transaction hash).
