IP Address Policy

To keep accounts secure and ensure fair use, GOAT Funded Futures monitors the consistency of the IP address tied to each account across all stages.

During the Evaluation / Challenge

The geographic region of the IP you use to purchase a challenge on https://app.goatfundedfutures.com should match the region you log in and trade from while completing it.

What this means:

  • The region used at purchase needs to align with where you actually trade.

  • A notable mismatch between the two can trigger a security review.

  • This is designed to prevent account sharing and block unauthorized access.

On a Funded Account

Once funded, the IP region you use to access the account needs to stay consistent.

Monitoring & Verification

If our Risk Management team detects a change in your IP region, we may contact you to confirm your identity. We might request proof of location, such as:

  • A travel or boarding ticket

  • A passport stamp

  • A live video verification from your current location

This only ever happens to protect your account.

Travelling or Changing Location?

If you plan to trade from a different region:

  • Notify the support team in advance.

  • Failing to let us know first may result in:

    • A temporary account restriction

    • Verification delays

    • Interrupted trading

Worth Knowing

  • VPNs, proxies, or other location-masking tools may set off IP flags.

  • Repeated, unexplained IP changes may lead to an account review or restriction.

  • Account sharing is strictly prohibited.
