Our Standards
Every review on PropFirmInsider is written to a consistent standard. We evaluate firms across the same set of criteria regardless of their size, popularity, or commercial relationship with us.
Our core scoring dimensions:
- ●Trust Score — Track record, regulatory standing, company transparency, and trader community sentiment
- ●Payout Reliability — Verified payout history, average processing speed, and community-reported issues
- ●Rule Fairness — Evaluation rules, drawdown limits, consistency rules, and how strictly they are enforced
- ●Pricing — Challenge costs relative to funding potential, reset fee policies, and hidden fees
- ●Trader Support — Responsiveness, dispute resolution, and trader-reported support quality
Independence
We do not accept payment from prop firms in exchange for reviews, rankings, or editorial coverage. Our editorial team has full independence from our commercial operations.
We may maintain affiliate relationships with some firms. These relationships are disclosed in relevant articles and never influence our scoring or written assessments. A firm we earn commissions from may still receive a lower rating than a firm we have no commercial relationship with.
Verification
All material claims in our reviews — pricing, rules, payout speeds, profit splits — are verified against official firm documentation at the time of publication. We do not rely solely on self-reported information from firms.
Where community data (trader forum posts, social media reports) is used, it is treated as supporting evidence rather than primary fact.
Updates
The prop trading industry changes frequently. Firms update their rules, change pricing, and sometimes shut down. We update our reviews when we become aware of material changes.
Dates on review pages reflect when the data was last verified — not necessarily when the page was first published.
Corrections
If you believe any information on PropFirmInsider is inaccurate, please contact us at hello@propfirminsider.com with supporting evidence. We take corrections seriously and will investigate promptly. If a correction is warranted, we will update the content and note the change.
