Prop trading firm Fintokei has eliminated the waiting period for trader withdrawals, moving to an instant approval system that breaks with industry practice of freezing accounts during payout reviews.

Fintokei Introduces Instant Withdrawals

The Czech company, which operates under Purple Group backing, processed 99.9% of withdrawal requests between April 2023 and June 2025. The move comes as the firm's payout volume jumped 118% in the first half of 2025 compared to the same period last year.

In the industry standards, most prop trading firms freeze trader accounts when withdrawals are requested, forcing traders to wait hours or days for manual reviews. During these freezes, traders miss market opportunities while their requests undergo scrutiny.

In case of Fintokei’s new offering, traders will be able to continue trading with their remaining account balance while their payout processes. The firm only rejects withdrawals in cases involving fraud or rule violations, which founder David Varga says represents just 0.01% of all requests.

"A payout success rate above 99% sets a new benchmark for the entire industry, where traders often doubt whether they'll actually get paid," Varga said. "Our stats prove our commitment: if a trader earns it, they get it."

Strong Growth in Trader Payouts

The platform paid out over €20 million to successful traders, with the average 2024 payout reaching $3,881 per trader. Japanese traders dominated the top performer rankings, claiming the first 14 spots by payout volume. The largest single withdrawal hit ¥20 million ($129,032), while the biggest payout outside Japan reached $48,482.

At the end of 2024, Varga revealed that although the platform originated in the Czech Republic, it is most popular in Japan, which accounts for 60% of its clients. “Our platform is currently the closest to being local in Japan,” he said in October last year.

Recent quarterly data shows sustained growth momentum. Payout volume grew 52% in Q2 2025 compared to the same quarter last year.

Beyond payouts, Fintokei reports that 23% of clients successfully pass all qualification stages, earning access to funded accounts from which they can withdraw real profits. This completion rate stands above typical industry benchmarks. For instance, in June, only 6% of traders at ATFunded achieved funded status.

In March, The Funded Trader reported that just 1 in 20 clients successfully completed trading challenges, and of those, only 20% went on to receive a payout. Meanwhile, data from FPFX Tech accessed by Finance Magnates in September showed that just 7% of 300,000 proprietary trading accounts resulted in a payout.

Technical Issues Remain Minor Factor

When including trader-initiated cancellations and technical problems, Fintokei's overall payout success rate drops to 98.4%. Technical issues typically involve incomplete account verification, incorrect withdrawal details, name mismatches, or amounts below minimum thresholds.

"We've historically rejected payouts only in cases of clear fraud or organized groups where we had direct evidence of serious rule-breaking," Varga explained. Most technical issues get resolved later, allowing traders to successfully complete their withdrawals.

Fintokei is a brand backed by the CFD broker Purple Trading, which was also founded by Varga. According to market statistics, 3 out of 5 clients consider such platforms to be safer and more trustworthy. It is therefore not surprising that traditional brokers have started entering the industry, while existing firms have begun launching “brokers” in offshore jurisdictions at a rapid pace.
