How TakeProfitTrader Rewards Program Works

TakeProfitTrader's rewards program operates through automatic point accrual tied to your trading milestones—every Test you pass adds 250 points to your balance, every $1,000 withdrawn from PRO generates 500 points, and every dollar spent on platform purchases earns 1 point.

These points accumulate in your dashboard's rewards section and convert to spendable credits through manual redemption at tiered conversion rates (base 100 points = $1, up to 15% better at Platinum tier). The program tracks lifetime point totals to determine your tier level, which unlocks progressively better redemption bonuses, priority support, and exclusive promotional access.

The entire system functions as a closed loop where profitable trading generates points that purchase more Tests, which pass into PRO accounts that generate more profits and points.

Quick heads-up: This article is based on my real experience with TakeProfitTrader and the info available when I published/updated this. Things change in prop trading — rules, payouts, promos, all of it.

The Three-Stage Rewards Cycle

The program operates in three distinct stages:

Stage 1: EARN – Trading activities automatically generate points
Stage 2: ACCUMULATE – Points stack in your balance until you choose to act
Stage 3: REDEEM – You manually convert points to credits and spend them

Most traders never optimize Stages 2-3 because they don't understand the mechanics. Let's break down each stage.

Stage 1: How Point Earning Works (The Automatic Part)

Trigger Event 1: Passing a Test

When it happens:

• You meet all Test rules (profit target, max trailing drawdown, consistency)
• TakeProfitTrader emails you: "Congratulations, you passed!"
• System flags your account as "passed"

What happens automatically:

1. Backend system detects "Test status = passed"
2. Script runs: add_points(account_id, 250, source="test_pass")
3. 250 points credited to your rewards balance
4. Email notification: "You earned 250 points!"

Timeline: Points appear within 24 hours of Test pass confirmation

Important: Points only trigger on first pass. If you reset the same Test and pass again, you get another 250 points (because it counts as a new pass event). But you don't get points for just subscribing to a Test—only for passing it.

Trigger Event 2: PRO Account Withdrawals

When it happens:

• You request a withdrawal from your PRO account
• Withdrawal processes to your wallet or bank
• System records the withdrawal amount

What happens automatically:

1. Backend detects: withdrawal_amount = $X
2. Calculates: points = (withdrawal_amount ÷ 1000) × 500
3. Credits points to your balance
4. Email notification: "You earned X points from your withdrawal!"

Examples:

• Withdraw $800 → $800 ÷ 1,000 = 0.8 × 500 = 400 points
• Withdraw $1,500 → $1,500 ÷ 1,000 = 1.5 × 500 = 750 points
• Withdraw $3,250 → $3,250 ÷ 1,000 = 3.25 × 500 = 1,625 points

Timeline: Points appear within 48 hours of withdrawal processing

Important: Only the amount that hits your wallet counts. If you withdraw $1,000 but TPT takes a 20% profit split ($200), you still get 500 points based on the $1,000 gross amount, not the $800 net.

Trigger Event 3: Platform Spending

When it happens:

• You complete any purchase on TakeProfitTrader
• Payment successfully processes (card, PayPal, wallet cash)
• System records the transaction

What happens automatically:

1. Backend detects: purchase_amount = $Y
2. Calculates: points = purchase_amount × 1
3. Credits points to your balance
4. No email notification (too frequent)

Examples:

• Buy $50K Test ($170) → 170 points
• Pay for Test reset ($100) → 100 points
• Pay PRO activation ($130) → 130 points
• Pay PRO reset ($549) → 549 points

Timeline: Points appear within 24 hours of purchase confirmation

Important: If you use credits or promotional codes, only the cash amount you actually paid generates points. If you buy a $170 Test but pay $100 cash + $70 credits, you only earn 100 points (from the cash portion).

Stage 2: How Point Accumulation Works (The Passive Part)

Once earned, points sit in your account until you redeem them. There's no automatic redemption—you must manually trigger it.

Where Points Are Stored

Location: Dashboard → Rewards → Points Balance

What you see:

• Current Balance: Points available to redeem right now
• Lifetime Points Earned: Total points earned since account creation (this determines tier)
• Points History: Log of all point-earning events with dates

Example display:

Current Balance: 12,450 points
Lifetime Earned: 28,300 points
Tier: Gold (25,000+ lifetime points)


Even though current balance is 12,450, you're Gold tier because you earned 28,300 total historically.

Accumulation Strategies

Strategy 1: Immediate Redemption

Redeem as soon as you hit minimum threshold (1,000 points).

Pros: Get credits immediately, can use for next purchase
Cons: Miss out on tier bonuses if you're close to next tier

Strategy 2: Threshold Waiting

Set target thresholds (10K, 17K) and only redeem when you hit them.

Pros: Maximize redemption value, force discipline
Cons: Points sit unused for months

Strategy 3: Tier Optimization

Accumulate until you're 1,000-2,000 points away from next tier, push to hit tier, then redeem with bonus.

Pros: Best mathematical value per point
Cons: Requires tracking and patience

My recommendation: Use Strategy 3 if you're close to a tier jump (within 3,000 points). Otherwise, use Strategy 2 and redeem at 10K or 17K thresholds.

Stage 3: How Point Redemption Works (The Manual Part)

Redemption is a two-step process: select what you want, confirm the exchange.

Step-by-Step Redemption Mechanics

Step 1: Access Credit Bank

Dashboard → Rewards → "Credit Bank" or "Redeem Points"

Step 2: View Available Redemptions

System displays your redemption options based on:

• Your current point balance
• Your tier level
• Any special promotions running

Example options you might see:

✓ $10 Credit – 1,000 points (Available)
✓ $50 Credit – 5,000 points (Available)
✓ $100 Test Reset – 10,000 points (Available)
✗ $130 PRO Activation – 13,000 points (Insufficient points - need 550 more)
✗ $170 Test Account – 17,000 points (Insufficient points - need 4,550 more)


Step 3: Select Redemption

Click on your desired option. System shows confirmation screen:

Redeem 10,000 points for $100 Test Reset Credit?
Current balance: 12,450 points
New balance after redemption: 2,450 points


Step 4: Confirm

Click "Confirm Redemption"

Step 5: Receive Credit

• Points deducted from your balance immediately
• Credit added to your wallet within minutes
• Check wallet: Profile Avatar → Wallet → Credits section

Step 6: Use Credit

Next time you make a purchase (Test, reset, etc.), select "Your Credits" as payment method at checkout.

Tier-Adjusted Redemption Rates

Your tier level affects how many points you need for each redemption.

Example: Redeeming for $170 Test Account

• Bronze: 17,000 points required
• Silver (5% bonus): 16,150 points required (saves 850 points)
• Gold (10% bonus): 15,300 points required (saves 1,700 points)
• Platinum (15% bonus): 14,450 points required (saves 2,550 points)

How the math works:

Base rate: 17,000 points = $170
Gold tier: 17,000 × 0.90 (10% discount) = 15,300 points

The system automatically applies your tier discount. You don't have to calculate anything—just see the reduced price at checkout.

Behind the Scenes: Technical Flow

Here's what happens in TakeProfitTrader's system when you interact with rewards:

When You Pass a Test

1. Test evaluation completes
2. System checks: all rules passed? → Yes
3. Database query: UPDATE accounts SET status='passed' WHERE account_id=X
4. Trigger: reward_script.execute(account_id=X, event='test_pass')
5. Script: INSERT INTO points_ledger (account_id, points=250, source='test_pass', date=NOW)
6. Script: UPDATE users SET points_balance=points_balance+250 WHERE account_id=X
7. Email notification sent
8. Points appear in dashboard within 24 hours


When You Withdraw from PRO

1. You request withdrawal via dashboard
2. TPT processes withdrawal (1-5 business days)
3. Funds transfer to wallet
4. System logs: withdrawal_completed(account_id=X, amount=$Y)
5. Trigger: reward_script.execute(account_id=X, event='withdrawal', amount=$Y)
6. Script calculates: points = (Y ÷ 1000) × 500
7. Script: INSERT INTO points_ledger (account_id, points=calculated, source='withdrawal', date=NOW)
8. Script: UPDATE users SET points_balance=points_balance+calculated
9. Email notification sent
10. Points appear in dashboard within 48 hours


When You Redeem Points

1. You click "Redeem 17,000 points for $170 Test"
2. System checks: current_balance >= 17,000? → Yes
3. System checks: tier bonus? → Gold = 10%, so adjusted cost = 15,300
4. Confirmation screen displays: "Redeem 15,300 points for $170 Test Credit?"
5. You click "Confirm"
6. Transaction: BEGIN
7. Script: UPDATE users SET points_balance=points_balance-15300 WHERE account_id=X
8. Script: INSERT INTO points_ledger (account_id, points=-15300, source='redemption', type='test_credit', date=NOW)
9. Script: UPDATE wallet SET credits=credits+170 WHERE account_id=X
10. Transaction: COMMIT
11. Confirmation email sent
12. Credits appear in wallet immediately


Important: Redemptions are atomic transactions. Either all steps complete successfully or none do. You can't end up with points deducted but no credits received (that would require a database failure, which is rare).

How Tier Progression Works

Tiers are calculated based on lifetime points earned, updated in real-time as you earn points.

Tier Calculation Logic

if lifetime_points < 10,000:
   tier = "Bronze"
elif lifetime_points < 25,000:
   tier = "Silver"
elif lifetime_points < 50,000:
   tier = "Gold"
else:
   tier = "Platinum"


Alternative qualification: If you've spent $1,000+ but haven't earned 10,000 points, you still get Silver tier (and so on for higher tiers). The system checks both conditions and grants the tier if EITHER is met.

When Tier Updates Happen

Real-time updates: Every time you earn points, the system recalculates your lifetime total and checks for tier jumps.

Example:

You're at 24,800 lifetime points (Silver tier). You withdraw $1,000 from PRO, earning 500 points. Your new lifetime total: 25,300 points.

System logic:

1. Add 500 points to current balance
2. Add 500 points to lifetime total
3. Check: lifetime_total >= 25,000? → Yes
4. Update tier: "Gold"
5. Send email: "Congratulations! You've reached Gold tier"
6. Unlock Gold tier benefits immediately


Your redemption rates improve starting with your next redemption—no waiting period.

How Promotional Multipliers Work

During promotional periods, point earning is temporarily boosted.

Common Promo Types

Type 1: Withdrawal Point Multipliers

"Earn 2× points on all PRO withdrawals this week"

Normal: Withdraw $1,000 = 500 points
Promo: Withdraw $1,000 = 1,000 points

System logic during promo:

if promo_active('2x_withdrawals') AND event='withdrawal':
   points = (amount ÷ 1000) × 500 × 2
else:
   points = (amount ÷ 1000) × 500


Type 2: Test Pass Bonuses

"Earn 500 bonus points (instead of 250) for passing Tests during February"

System logic:

if date.month == 2 AND event='test_pass':
   points = 500
else:
   points = 250


Type 3: Spending Multipliers

"Earn 3× points on all platform purchases this weekend"

Normal: Spend $170 = 170 points
Promo: Spend $170 = 510 points

How to maximize promos:

1. Watch for promo announcements (email, dashboard banner)
2. Delay withdrawals or purchases by a few days if promo is imminent
3. Batch your activities during promo windows

Example strategy:

You're planning to withdraw $5,000 from PRO over the next month. TPT announces "2× withdrawal points March 15-22."

Non-optimized: Withdraw $1,000 every Friday = 500 × 5 = 2,500 points total

Optimized: Wait until March 15-22, withdraw all $5,000 during promo = 5,000 points total (1,000 × 5)

You doubled your point earning from the same withdrawals just by timing them strategically.

Point Earning Limits and Restrictions

Q: Is there a cap on points I can earn?

A: No upper limit on lifetime points, but there are practical caps:

• You can only run 5 PRO accounts maximum
• Each PRO caps at $100K profit target per reset cycle
• So maximum points from withdrawals = $100K × 5 accounts = $500K ÷ 1,000 × 500 = 250,000 points per cycle

Q: Can I earn points from referring friends?

A: TakeProfitTrader currently doesn't have a referral point system. You only earn points from your own trading activities.

Q: Do points earned from PRO+ (live funded) accounts count the same?

A: Yes, PRO+ withdrawals earn 500 points per $1,000 just like PRO accounts.

Q: If I pass a Test but never activate PRO, do I still get 250 points?

A: Yes, points are awarded at Test pass, regardless of whether you activate PRO afterward.

Common Technical Issues and Fixes

Issue 1: Points earned but not showing in dashboard

Cause: Cache delay or browser cookies

Fix:

1. Hard refresh: Ctrl+Shift+R (Windows) or Cmd+Shift+R (Mac)
2. Clear browser cache and cookies
3. Wait 24 hours (points have processing delay)
4. If still missing after 48 hours, contact support

Issue 2: Tier not updating after crossing threshold

Cause: Lifetime points calculated incorrectly or database lag

Fix:

1. Check "Points History" to verify lifetime total
2. Manually calculate: sum all earned points since account creation
3. If your math shows you should be higher tier, email support with screenshot

Issue 3: Redemption fails with "Insufficient points" when you clearly have enough

Cause: You're trying to redeem a tier-locked option you don't qualify for

Fix:

1. Check tier requirements for that specific redemption
2. If it says "Gold tier required" and you're Silver, you can't redeem it yet
3. Either accumulate more points to reach Gold or choose a different redemption

Issue 4: Credits not appearing in wallet after redemption

Cause: Wallet cache hasn't updated

Fix:

1. Go to Wallet page, hard refresh
2. Wait 5-10 minutes, check again
3. Check "Points History" to confirm redemption completed
4. If history shows redemption but no credits, contact support immediately

Bottom Line

TakeProfitTrader's rewards program operates through automatic point accrual (250 points per Test pass, 500 points per $1,000 withdrawn, 1 point per dollar spent), passive accumulation in your dashboard balance, and manual redemption through the Credit Bank at tier-adjusted rates (Bronze = baseline, Platinum = 15% better).

The system runs on backend scripts that detect qualifying events, calculate points using fixed formulas, and credit your account within 24-48 hours. Tier progression happens in real-time based on lifetime points earned, immediately unlocking better redemption rates, priority support, and promotional access.

Optimal usage involves timing redemptions to reach tier thresholds first, delaying withdrawals during promotional multiplier periods, and redeeming for high-value items (17,000 points = $170 Test) rather than small credits. The entire mechanism functions as a closed loop where profitable trading generates points that fund additional Tests, creating a self-sustaining scaling system for traders running multiple PRO accounts.
