New 15K and 50K Freedom Accounts Are Live at PropScholar

New 15K and 50K Freedom Accounts Are Live at PropScholar

TL;DR: PropScholar just launched two new Freedom Account sizes — $15,000 (entry fee $15) and $50,000 (entry fee $50). Same one-step structure, same 10% target, same rules. Pass and earn a $60 or $200 scholarship, paid within 4 hours. Pay by UPI in India, or USDT/PayPal everywhere else.

Key takeaways:

• The $15K Freedom Account costs $15 to enter; the $50K costs $50.
• Both follow the same one-step 10% profit target with a 6% max loss and 3% daily loss rule.
• Pass the $15K and earn a $60 scholarship. Pass the $50K and earn $200.
• The scholarship is exactly 4x the entry fee on both new accounts.
• Payouts are processed within 4 hours of your request.
• Pay via UPI (India) or USDT/PayPal (everywhere else).
• Full rules, lot limits, and payout proof are public at propscholar.com.

For a while, the Freedom Account came in three sizes: $5K, $10K, and $25K. Those are still there. But a lot of traders — particularly people who had already passed a smaller account and wanted more room to work with, or beginners who felt the $25K jump was too large — asked for something in between. So we built it.

The $15K and $50K Freedom Accounts are now live. Here is exactly how they work, what they cost, what you can earn, and the one honest trade-off you should know before you buy.

What the 15K Freedom Account Actually Costs and Pays

The entry fee is $15. That is not a monthly subscription, not a renewal fee, not a scaling fee — it is a one-time payment to enter the evaluation.

You need to hit a 10% profit target on a $15,000 simulated account. Do that while staying within the risk rules (covered below), and you receive a scholarship of $60. That is four times your entry fee returned to you on top of your pass.

The fastest recorded pass on PropScholar Freedom Accounts is 2 hours. The platform has seen traders pass in under a day across the $5K and $10K accounts. The $15K works the same way — there is no minimum number of trading days and no time limit, so if your setup hits cleanly and you manage risk correctly, nothing is stopping you from finishing quickly.

Every payout is publicly verifiable. You can check real pass records and scholarship payments at propscholar.com/payout-proof before you ever spend a cent.

What the 50K Freedom Account Costs and Pays

The $50K account costs $50 to enter. Pass the same one-step 10% target and you earn a $200 scholarship. Again, four times the entry fee.

For context: the $25K account pays a $100 scholarship on a pass. The $50K doubles both the account size and the scholarship amount. If you've been trading consistently and want more capital to work with — and you're confident in your risk management — the $50K is the natural next step.

Some traders ask whether it makes more sense to just run two $25K accounts. The short answer is no: PropScholar enforces a one-Freedom-Account-per-trader rule server-side, so you can only hold one at a time. The $50K is the way to get $50,000 of evaluation capital under a single account.

The Rules Are Identical to the Existing Freedom Accounts

PropScholar has never changed its rules retroactively. The $15K and $50K follow exactly the same structure as the $5K, $10K, and $25K:

Profit target: 10% of the initial account balance. On the $15K that is $1,500. On the $50K that is $5,000.

Maximum loss: 6% of the initial account size. On the $15K, that is $900. On the $50K, that is $3,000. Hit either of those and the evaluation ends.

Daily loss limit: 3% of the higher of your starting equity or your current balance, calculated each day. This resets daily. It is the rule that stops one bad session from killing an otherwise solid evaluation.

Time limit: None.

Minimum trading days: None.

Weekend holding: Allowed.

News trading: Not allowed on Freedom Accounts.

Inactivity: If you go 14 consecutive days without a trade, the account closes.

Copy trading: Not allowed between two PropScholar accounts.

The complete ruleset is always available at propscholar.com/terms-of-use. No surprises, no hidden clauses.

Lot Limits on the 15K and 50K — Read This Before You Trade

This is the one real restriction worth pausing on, and it matters more on larger accounts because it is tempting to scale up position size to reach the target faster.

Lot limits on PropScholar Freedom Accounts are maximum open lots per asset class, applied concurrently — not cumulative. You can open and close as many trades as you want, but at any single moment, you cannot exceed these open-lot limits simultaneously.

The lot limits for the $10K account (published for reference) give you a baseline. The $15K and $50K accounts carry their own limits appropriate to their sizes — for the exact figures, check the account detail page at propscholar.com/shop before you buy.

What we can tell you from operating these evaluations: gold (XAUUSD) consistently has the tightest lot limit relative to account size across all Freedom Account tiers. Traders who build their entire strategy around heavy gold exposure need to verify the specific gold limit for the account size they are targeting. It is better to know this before you start than to find out mid-trade.

Forex pairs have more headroom. BTCUSD and US30 have tighter caps. Each asset class is independent — you cannot borrow unused headroom from forex to top up your gold position.

The lot limits exist for a good reason. They stop one oversized position from wiping an entire evaluation in a single volatile move. That is a feature, not a flaw, especially on news days.

How to Pay If You're Outside India

For traders in Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, South Africa, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Indonesia, the Philippines, Vietnam, Egypt — or anywhere that is not India — the payment path is USDT.

Here is how it actually works in practice:

You buy USDT on a peer-to-peer (P2P) exchange. Most traders use Binance P2P or a similar platform. You fund that purchase using a local bank transfer or whatever method the P2P seller accepts in your country. You then send USDT to PropScholar via NOWPayments. The full cost of the $15K account is $15 worth of USDT. The $50K is $50 worth of USDT.

That is the complete path. No credit card required. No Payoneer, no Wise, no local wallet sent directly to us — those are not payment methods we accept. But USDT is genuinely accessible from every country listed above, and the P2P route is how most of our international traders actually fund their accounts.

If you have a PayPal account, that works too.

For Indian traders, it is simpler: UPI payment, QR code or manual UPI ID, done in under a minute.

If you have any question about payment before you purchase, email business@propscholar.com. We have 24/7 support and the team is used to walking traders through the USDT process step by step.

The Scholarship Math Across All Freedom Account Sizes

To put the full picture in one place:

$5,000 Freedom Account

Entry fee: $5. Scholarship on pass: $20. That is 4x the entry fee.

$10,000 Freedom Account

Entry fee: $10. Scholarship on pass: $42. Just above 4x, because the numbers round slightly differently at this tier.

$15,000 Freedom Account

Entry fee: $15. Scholarship on pass: $60. Exactly 4x.

$25,000 Freedom Account

Entry fee: from $5 (standard pricing applies — check the shop for current entry). Scholarship on pass: $100.

$50,000 Freedom Account

Entry fee: $50. Scholarship on pass: $200. Exactly 4x.

The payout speed is the same regardless of which account you pass: processed within 4 hours of your request. That is not marketing language — it is the actual processing commitment, and you can verify it against the public payout records.

Who Should Start With the 15K and Who Should Consider the 50K

This is an honest take, not a sales pitch.

If you have been trading for a few months, understand your risk per trade, and have passed a smaller Freedom Account before (or feel ready to), the $15K is a natural progression. It gives you more capital than the $10K and a higher scholarship, without the larger dollar commitment of the $25K or $50K. The entry fee of $15 is low enough that the financial risk is genuinely small.

The $50K is a different decision. You're putting in $50, which is still cheap by industry standards, but the more important question is whether you can manage the position sizing discipline that a $50,000 account demands. The 6% max loss is $3,000. The daily loss limit on a $50,000 account is $1,500 per day. Those are real numbers. If you're still at the stage where you sometimes double your lot size after a loss, the $50K evaluation will show you that very quickly.

Start where your strategy is proven, not where you want to end up.

If you're genuinely unsure, the Discord has more than 3,000 traders at every stage of the journey. People openly share what worked and what got their accounts closed. That collective experience is worth reading before you choose a size — join here.

PropScholar Is Not a Prop Firm — Why That Distinction Matters Here

PropScholar is a scholarship-based trading evaluation platform, not a prop firm. We do not manage institutional capital. What we do is simple: you pay a small entry fee, you trade on a simulated evaluation account, and if you hit the profit target within the risk rules, you receive a scholarship grant. The scholarship on the $50K account is $200. The scholarship on the $15K is $60.

This model matters because it means the payout is a scholarship for demonstrated skill — it is not profit-sharing from live markets, and it is not dependent on institutional risk limits or capital allocation committees. The evaluation result is verifiable, the payment happens within 4 hours, and every past payout is publicly posted at propscholar.com/payout-proof.

We have been running for over 1.5 years. The rules have never changed retroactively. That is not a common claim in this industry — and it is the reason traders in emerging markets, where platform trust is a real and legitimate concern, keep coming back.
