FAQ

Answers before you even ask.

A quick rundown of how NIFASE works so you can focus on trading, not decoding terms and conditions.

NIFASE is a finance and trading education hub that combines funded evaluations with structured learning so traders can qualify for real payout accounts.

Basic market knowledge helps, but the programs start from risk and psychology foundations, then move into playbook building and evaluation rules.

Once funded criteria are met, you can request withdrawals on the dashboard. Approved payouts are processed to your chosen method and logged as certificates.

Most challenges are one‑time fees per account size, with optional re‑tries and scaling plans if you want to grow into larger capital tiers.
