# Challenge Lifecycle

> Follow a MyFundedPerps challenge from purchase through evaluation, funding, payouts, and account history.

A challenge starts with a purchase, continues through a single evaluation, and may lead to a funded account and payouts. The plan attached to your
account sets its target, limits, and payout terms.

## The complete path

1. [Choose and buy a challenge](/guides/challenge-lifecycle/buying-a-challenge).
2. [Track evaluation progress](/guides/challenge-lifecycle/evaluation-progress)
   without breaching a rule.
3. If the account fails, review the
   [breach and next-step guidance](/guides/challenge-lifecycle/breaches-and-next-steps).
4. After the evaluation passes, complete the
   [funding path](/guides/challenge-lifecycle/becoming-funded).
5. On an active funded account, meet the current terms and
   [request a payout](/guides/challenge-lifecycle/payouts).
6. Use [Billing and Rewards](/guides/challenge-lifecycle/billing-and-rewards)
   to find purchase records, invoices, FP Points, and reward cases.

## Account stages and statuses

The account switcher shows both a stage and a status. They answer different
questions:

| Field  | What it means                                                     |
| ------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Stage  | Whether the account is an evaluation account or a funded account. |
| Status | Whether that account is active, passed, failed, or closed.        |

A passed evaluation remains in your history. A funded account is a separate
account issued after the required post-pass steps.

<Note>
  Check the selected account's rule card, pass-progress card, funding path, and
  payout panel for its current state.
