Is Tradeify legit?

Tradeify publishes distinct Select Flex and Select Daily payout policies, with the choice fixed for each funded account. Its Trustpilot page shows 4.5 from 6,158 reviews as of October 2026, with no warning banner observed. The two policies differ in payout frequency, buffers and daily loss limits. Checking those differences is more useful than treating the rating as proof of safety.

Founded
The founding date is not confirmed by the official payout source cited here.
Trustpilot
4.5 from 6,158 reviews (October 2026). No warning banner was observed during our check.
Payouts
Select Flex pays after every 5 winning days; its 50K winning-day threshold is $150. Select Daily offers daily eligibility above a buffer, with a $250 minimum payout. The published 25K-150K Daily rule limits requests to twice new cycle profit, subject to the size's cap and remaining buffer.
Watch out for
The choice between Select Flex and Select Daily is permanent for that account. Daily includes a buffer and Daily Loss Limit that Flex does not have.
Our take
We would settle the payout-policy choice before passing: faster access comes with different risk limits, and you cannot switch that account later.
