Gold Funding — Terms & Conditions
Last updated: 20 May 2025
1 | Introduction and Contracting Parties
Gold Funding™ is the trading name of ALFMNY Media Limited, a Hong Kong-incorporated company (registration number 77428631) whose registered office is Room 409, Beverley Commercial Centre, 87-105 Chatham Road South, Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon. Throughout this document ALFMNY Media Limited is referred to as “Gold Funding”, “the Firm”, “we”, “us” or “our”. The expressions “you”, “your”, “trader”, “participant” or “user” mean any natural or legal person who creates a profile on goldfunding.io, pays an evaluation fee or otherwise makes use of Gold Funding’s services. By visiting the website, opening an evaluation account or executing a trade you confirm that you have read, understood and unconditionally accepted these Terms and Conditions. Anyone who disagrees with a provision must refrain from using our services.
2 | Nature of the Programme
Gold Funding operates a proprietary-trading evaluation scheme in a simulated trading environment. All activity during the evaluation and verification phases is carried out with virtual balances; no real capital is deployed and no live profit share is generated. If, while respecting every rule set out in these Terms, you reach the required targets, the Firm may at its sole discretion provide you with a simulated funded account.
3 | Programme Structure
Two evaluation formats are available. The first is the two-step track, where a participant must earn ten per cent of the initial virtual balance in Phase One and then a further five per cent of that balance in Phase Two. The second is the one-step track, where a single target of ten per cent of the initial balance must be achieved. The trading period commences with the first executed order and concludes when the target is met, a risk limit is breached or the contractual time expires, whichever occurs first. At that moment all open positions are closed automatically.
4 | Risk Parameters
Throughout the two-step track the aggregate loss recorded on the account may never exceed ten per cent of the initial balance, and the unrealised or realised draw-down measured on any single calendar day may not exceed five per cent of the same initial balance. In the one-step track the total loss may never exceed five per cent of the highest equity previously recorded and the draw-down on any calendar day may not exceed five per cent of the initial balance. A breach of any of these limits causes the automatic liquidation of positions, immediate termination of the evaluation and the forfeiture of the evaluation fee.
5 | Forbidden Trading Practices
Gold Funding forbids trading methods that exploit latency, quote manipulation or other technical anomalies; any strategy that mirrors or copies signals from external providers or from multiple internal accounts; martingale, grid or other geometrically expanding exposure patterns; techniques that rely on guarantees unavailable in live markets, such as guaranteed stop execution or weekend-gap fills; or any position sizing, frequency or timing that the Firm’s risk department deems inconsistent with sustainable live execution. If the compliance team classifies an approach as forbidden it may invalidate trades, record the evaluation as failed, suspend or close accounts, or reduce leverage without prior notice.
6 | Technology and Execution Disclaimer
A simulated environment can never duplicate live execution perfectly. Live orders may experience slippage, partial fills or rejection, and therefore profitability demonstrated during the evaluation is no assurance of similar results in real markets.
7 | Fees, Cooling-Off Period and Refunds
The evaluation fee covers market data, technology, administrative support and risk monitoring. Where consumer law provides a statutory right of withdrawal, you may cancel within fourteen days of payment provided that no trade has yet been executed; in that case the fee will be refunded in full. Once a trade has been placed the service is deemed to have begun and the fee becomes irrevocably earned.
8 | Intellectual Property
All software, text, graphics, data feeds, trade names and trademarks delivered through the Gold Funding website, client portal or trading platform remain the exclusive property of ALFMNY Media Limited or its licensors. You receive only a personal, non-transferable, revocable licence to use such content for the sole purpose of participating in the programme.
9 | Identity Verification and Data Protection
In order to comply with anti-money-laundering and counter-terrorist-financing regulations we verify every participant’s identity through the Sumsub onboarding service. Personal data are processed for compliance, administration and risk-management purposes under the Hong Kong Personal Data (Privacy) Ordinance and are never sold or leased to third parties. Full details are set out in our Privacy Policy.
10 | Indemnity and Limitation of Liability
You agree to indemnify ALFMNY Media Limited and its affiliates against any claim, cost or expense arising from your breach of these Terms or from the misuse of the site. To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Firm’s aggregate liability to you is limited to the evaluation fee paid for the current cycle, and the Firm shall not be liable for any indirect, consequential or exemplary loss, including lost profits.
11 | Suspension and Termination
Gold Funding may suspend or terminate any account or service immediately if you breach these Terms, behave abusively, endanger the Firm’s capital or reputation, or if legal, regulatory or technical circumstances make continued service impracticable. You may terminate the relationship by giving five Hong Kong business-days’ written notice to [email protected] provided that no current evaluation is in breach. Termination by either party confers no refund beyond that available under Section 7.
12 | Risk Disclosure
Trading foreign exchange, equities, commodities, indices or digital assets is inherently speculative and may result in substantial financial loss. Past performance—whether actual or simulated—offers no guarantee of future performance. Nothing in these Terms, on the website or within the programme constitutes investment advice or an invitation to invest.
13 | Governing Law and Jurisdiction
These Terms, and any non-contractual obligations arising in connection with them, are governed by Hong Kong law. The courts of Hong Kong have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any dispute, although the Firm may seek injunctive relief in any jurisdiction to protect its intellectual property or confidential information.
14 | Amendments
Gold Funding may amend these Terms when required by changes in law, technology or business practice. The current version is always available on the website and shows its effective date. Your continued use of the services after an amendment constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
15 | Acceptance
By creating an account, paying an evaluation fee or executing a trade you confirm that you have read, understood and accepted in full the Terms and Conditions set out above.
