Our primary mission is to find and nurture trading talent through a structured educational approach that focuses on skill development and disciplined risk management. We aim to open the door to the trading world for everyone, regardless of their financial background. The only cost to our clients is the fee for the selected FTMO Challenge.<\/p>\n<p>To assess whether a client meets our requirements, we offer two evaluation models: <strong>FTMO Challenge: 2-Step<\/strong> and <strong>FTMO Challenge: 1-Step<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>The <strong>FTMO Challenge: 2-Step<\/strong> follows a two-phase Evaluation Process consisting of the FTMO Challenge and Verification stages. After successfully passing both phases, the client may be provided with access to an FTMO Account, where they are eligible to receive a reward of up to <strong>90% of their profits<\/strong> (80% with the basic setup, increased to 90% through the Scaling Plan).<\/p>\n<p>The <strong>FTMO Challenge: 1-Step<\/strong> consists of a single evaluation phase only. Upon successfully passing this phase, the client may be provided with access to an FTMO Account immediately and is eligible to receive a <strong>90% reward split from the very beginning<\/strong>, without the need to complete a separate Verification stage.<\/p>\n<p>Our educational applications and account analyses are designed to support clients throughout the Evaluation Process and during trading on the FTMO Account.<\/p>\n<p>In Australia, the FTMO business model is operated by VRGK Tech Pty Ltd (ACN 640 619 521; regulated by Australian Securities and Investments Commission; License No.525757) under trading name \u201cFTMO Australia\u201d who also provides standard brokerage services in Australia. FTMO Australia is a strategic partner of the FTMO Group for the provision of FTMO business model in Australia. This unique partnership should provide Australian clients with the possibility to have access to both the demo trading services (FTMO business model) and real trading services (brokerage services provided also by VRGK Tech Pty Ltd). The demo brokerage services in Australia will be also amended in order to resemble the real trading even better.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"tags":[],"faq-category":[5],"class_list":["post-291","faq","type-faq","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","faq-category-new-with-ftmo"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v28.4 (Yoast SEO v28.4) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>What is FTMO and FTMO Australia? | FTMO Australia<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/ftmo.com\/au\/faq\/what-is-ftmo-and-ftmo-australia\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"What is FTMO and FTMO Australia?\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"FTMO\u2019s business model centres on education, skill-building, and risk management.
